This paper considers pairs of optimization problems that are defined from a single input and for which it is desired to find a good approximation to either one of the problems. In many instances, it is possible to efficiently find an…

A vertex colouring of a graph is called asymmetric if the only automorphism which preserves it is the identity. Tucker conjectured that if every automorphism of a connected, locally finite graph moves infinitely many vertices, then there is…

We present a randomized approximation algorithm for computing traveling salesperson tours in undirected regular graphs. Given an $n$-vertex, $k$-regular graph, the algorithm computes a tour of length at most $\left(1+\frac{7}{\ln…

We study a generalisation of Vizing's theorem, where the goal is to simultaneously colour the edges of graphs $G_1,\dots,G_k$ with few colours. We obtain asymptotically optimal bounds for the required number of colours in terms of the…

We investigate the geometry of sets in Euclidean and infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces. We establish sufficient conditions that ensure a set of points is contained in the image of a $(1/s)$-H\"older continuous map $f:[0,1]\rightarrow…

In this pedagogical work we reviewed the mathematical formalism and the physical interpretation, based on statistical mechanics, of the meta-heuristics called simulated annealing. Moreover, we presented the mathematical formulation of the…

In this paper, we consider distributed optimization problems where the goal is to minimize a sum of objective functions over a multi-agent network. We focus on the case when the inter-agent communication is described by a…

The editing of a combinatorial object is the alteration of some of its elements such that the resulting object satisfies a certain fixed property. The edit problem for graphs, when the edges are added or deleted, was first studied…

A $(a,b)$-coloring of a graph $G$ associates to each vertex a $b$-subset of a set of $a$ colors in such a way that the color-sets of adjacent vertices are disjoint. We define general reduction tools for $(a,b)$-coloring of graphs for $2\le…

We consider a generalization of the unsplittable maximum two-commodity flow problem on undirected graphs where each commodity $i\in{1,2}$ can be split into a bounded number $k_i$ of equally-sized chunks that can be routed on different…

In this work, approximations for real two variables function $f$ which has continuous partial $(n-1)$-derivatives $(n \ge 1)$ and has the $n$--th partial derivative of bounded bivariation or absolutely continuous are established. Explicit…

This paper introduces a new learning-based approach for approximately solving the Travelling Salesman Problem on 2D Euclidean graphs. We use deep Graph Convolutional Networks to build efficient TSP graph representations and output tours in…

Using an enhanced Self-Organizing Map method, we provided suboptimal solutions to the Traveling Salesman Problem. Besides, we employed hyperparameter tuning to identify the most critical features in the algorithm. All improvements in the…

We consider the problem of recovering an unknown $k$-factor, hidden in a weighted random graph. For $k=1$ this is the planted matching problem, while the $k=2$ case is closely related to the planted travelling salesman problem. The…

We prove that any polynomial-time $\alpha(n)$-approximation algorithm for the $n$-vertex metric asymmetric Traveling Salesperson Problem yields a polynomial-time $O(\alpha(C))$-approximation algorithm for the mixed and windy Capacitated Arc…

A long standing open problem in extremal graph theory is to describe all graphs that maximize the number of induced copies of a path on four vertices. The character of the problem changes in the setting of oriented graphs, and becomes more…

Many challenges from natural world can be formulated as a graph matching problem. Previous deep learning-based methods mainly consider a full two-graph matching setting. In this work, we study the more general partial matching problem with…

The reconfiguration graph $\mathcal{C}_k(G)$ for the $k$-colourings of a graph $G$ has a vertex for each proper $k$-colouring of $G$, and two vertices of $\mathcal{C}_k(G)$ are adjacent precisely when those $k$-colourings differ on a single…

Path cover is a well-known intractable problem that finds a minimum number of vertex disjoint paths in a given graph to cover all the vertices. We show that a variant, where the objective function is not the number of paths but the number…

$k$-Coloring Reconfiguration is one of the most well-studied reconfiguration problems, which asks to transform a given proper $k$-coloring of a graph to another by repeatedly recoloring a single vertex. Its approximate version, Maxmin…
