A $k$-motif (or graphlet) is a subgraph on $k$ nodes in a graph or network. Counting of motifs in complex networks has been a well-studied problem in network analysis of various real-word graphs arising from the study of social networks and…
A primary challenge in metagenomics is reconstructing individual microbial genomes from the mixture of short fragments created by sequencing. Recent work leverages the sparsity of the assembly graph to find $r$-dominating sets which enable…
For fixed sets $\sigma, \rho$ of non-negative integers, the $(\sigma, \rho)$-domination framework introduced by Telle [Nord. J. Comput. 1994] captures many classical graph problems. For a graph $G$, a $(\sigma,\rho)$-set is a set $S$ of…
The dominating set problem (DSP) is one of the most famous problems in combinatorial optimization. It is defined as follows. For a given simple graph $G=(V,E)$, a dominating set of $G$ is a subset $S\subseteq V$ such that every vertex in $…
Majority dynamics is a process on a simple, undirected graph $G$ with an initial Red/Blue color for every vertex of $G$. Each day, each vertex updates its color following the majority among its neighbors, using its previous color for…
The Graph Motif problem was introduced in 2006 in the context of biological networks. It consists of deciding whether or not a multiset of colors occurs in a connected subgraph of a vertex-colored graph. Graph Motif has been mostly analyzed…
In this paper, we use the concept of colored edge graphs to model homogeneous faults in networks. We then use this model to study the minimum connectivity (and design) requirements of networks for being robust against homogeneous faults…
Vertex coloring and multicoloring of graphs are a well known subject in graph theory, as well as their applications. In vertex multicoloring, each vertex is assigned some subset of a given set of colors. Here we propose a new kind of vertex…
The network coloring game has been proposed in the literature of social sciences as a model for conflict-resolution circumstances. The players of the game are the vertices of a graph with $n$ vertices and maximum degree $\Delta$. The game…
This paper introduces the concept of domination in the context of colored graphs (where each color assigns a weight to the vertices of its class), termed up-color domination, where a vertex dominating another must be heavier than the other.…
Graph Convolutional Neural Network (GCN), a widely adopted method for analyzing relational data, enhances node discriminability through the aggregation of neighboring information. Usually, stacking multiple layers can improve the…
A vertex of a plane digraph is bimodal if all its incoming edges (and hence all its outgoing edges) are consecutive in the cyclic order around it. A plane digraph is bimodal if all its vertices are bimodal. Bimodality is at the heart of…
We revisit $k$-Dominating Set, one of the first problems for which a tight $n^k-o(1)$ conditional lower bound (for $k\ge 3$), based on SETH, was shown (P\u{a}tra\c{s}cu and Williams, SODA 2007). However, the underlying reduction creates…
Graph coloring is one of the most famous computational problems with applications in a wide range of areas such as planning and scheduling, resource allocation, and pattern matching. So far coloring problems are mostly studied on static…
We introduce a hierarchy of problems between the \textsc{Dominating Set} problem and the \textsc{Power Dominating Set} (PDS) problem called the $\ell$-round power dominating set ($\ell$-round PDS, for short) problem. For $\ell=1$, this is…
Locally finding a solution to symmetry-breaking tasks such as vertex-coloring, edge-coloring, maximal matching, maximal independent set, etc., is a long-standing challenge in distributed network computing. More recently, it has also become…
Highly dynamic networks rarely offer end-to-end connectivity at a given time. Yet, connectivity in these networks can be established over time and space, based on temporal analogues of multi-hop paths (also called {\em journeys}).…
We investigate the distributed complexity of maximal matching and maximal independent set (MIS) in hypergraphs in the LOCAL model. A maximal matching of a hypergraph $H=(V_H,E_H)$ is a maximal disjoint set $M\subseteq E_H$ of hyperedges and…
Controlling real-world networked systems, including ecological, biomedical, and engineered networks that exhibit higher-order interactions, remains challenging due to inherent nonlinearities and large system scales. Despite extensive…
The maximum edge colouring problem considers the maximum colour assignment to edges of a graph under the condition that every vertex has at most a fixed number of distinct coloured edges incident on it. If that fixed number is $q$ we call…
