Enumerating minimal dominating sets with polynomial delay in bipartite graphs is a long-standing open problem. To date, even the subcase of chordal bipartite graphs is open, with the best known algorithm due to Golovach, Heggernes, Kant\'e,…
Jaeger, Vertigan, and Welsh [15] proved a dichotomy for the complexity of evaluating the Tutte polynomial at fixed points: The evaluation is #P-hard almost everywhere, and the remaining points admit polynomial-time algorithms. Dell,…
In a recent paper, we studied the interaction between the automorphism group of a graph and its Tutte polynomial. More precisely, we proved that certain symmetries of graphs are clearly reflected by their Tutte polynomials. The purpose of…
In this study, we present two results that relate Tutte polynomials. First, we provide new and complete polynomial invariants for graphs. We note that the number of variables of our polynomials is one. Second, let L_1 and L_2 be two…
Augustine et al. [DISC 2022] initiated the study of distributed graph algorithms in the presence of Byzantine nodes in the congested clique model. In this model, there is a set $B$ of Byzantine nodes, where $|B|$ is less than a third of the…
Distance-hereditary graphs are known to be the graphs that are totally decomposable for the split decomposition. We characterise distance-hereditary graphs whose complement is also distance-hereditary by their split decomposition and by…
The Tutte polynomial is originally a bivariate polynomial which enumerates the colorings of a graph and of its dual graph. Ardila extended in 2007 the definition of the Tutte polynomial on the real hyperplane arrangements. He particularly…
A graph is said to be distance-hereditary if the distance function in every connected induced subgraph is the same as in the graph itself. We prove that the ordinary Weisfeiler-Leman algorithm correctly tests the isomorphism of any two…
In this paper, we present two main results. First, by only one conjecture (Conjecture 2.9) for recognizing a vertex symmetric graph, which is the hardest task for our problem, we construct an algorithm for finding an isomorphism between two…
Let k be a natural number. Let G be a graph and let N_1,...,N_k be k independent sets in G. The graph G is k-probe distance hereditary if G can be embedded into a DH-graph by adding edges between vertices that are contained in the same…
We give a method of generating strongly polynomial sequences of graphs, i.e., sequences $(H_{\mathbf{k}})$ indexed by a multivariate parameter $\mathbf{k}=(k_1,\ldots, k_h)$ such that, for each fixed graph $G$, there is a multivariate…
While standard Weisfeiler-Leman vertex labels are not able to distinguish even vertices of regular graphs, there is proposed and tested family of inexpensive polynomial time vertex and edge invariants, distinguishing much more difficult…
Weight systems are functions on chord diagrams satisfying so-called Vassiliev's $4$-term relations. They are closely related to finite type knot invariants introduced by Vassiliev. Certain weight systems can be derived from graph…
When a graph $G$ admits a vertex $v$ that is contained in all its longest paths, we call $v$ a Gallai vertex. These are named after Gallai, who in 1966 asked the question if it is true that every connected graph contains such a vertex. This…
The graph polynomial for the number of independent sets of size $k$ in a general undirected graph is shown to be equal to an elementary symmetric polynomial of the vertex monomials, which are determined by the edges incident at the…
Dallard, Milani\v{c}, and \v{S}torgel conjectured that for a hereditary graph class $\mathcal{G}$, if there is some function $f:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{N}$ such that every graph $G\in \mathcal{G}$ with clique number $\omega(G)$ has treewidth…
We define a multivariate polynomial that generalizes several interlace polynomials defined by Arratia, Bollobas and Sorkin on the one hand, and Aigner and van der Holst on the other. We follow the route traced by Sokal, who defined a…
In this paper, motivated by a question posed in \cite{AH}, we introduce strongly biconvex graphs as a subclass of weakly chordal and bipartite graphs. We give a linear time algorithm to find an induced matching for such graphs and we prove…
We consider the complexity of finding weighted homomorphisms from intersection graphs of curves (string graphs) with $n$ vertices to a fixed graph $H$. We provide a complete dichotomy for the problem: if $H$ has no two vertices sharing two…
Transmission of a vertex v of a connected graph G is the sum of distances from v to all other vertices in G. Graph G is transmission irregular (TI) if no two of its vertices have the same transmission, and G is interval transmission…
