A subset $D \subseteq V $of a graph $G = (V, E)$ is a $(1, j)$-set if every vertex $v \in V \setminus D$ is adjacent to at least $1$ but not more than $j$ vertices in D. The cardinality of a minimum $(1, j)$-set of $G$, denoted as…

The transversal hypergraph problem is the task of enumerating the minimal hitting sets of a hypergraph. It is a long-standing open question whether this can be done in output-polynomial time. For hypergraphs whose solutions have bounded…

A set of vertices in a graph is c-colorable if the subgraph induced by the set has a proper c-coloring. In this paper, we study the problem of finding a step-by-step transformation (reconfiguration) between two c-colorable sets in the same…

Given a graph $G$ of $n$ vertices, where each vertex is initially attached an opinion of either red or blue. We investigate a random process known as the Best-of-three voting. In this process, at each time step, every vertex chooses three…

A semitotal dominating set of a graph $G$ with no isolated vertex is a dominating set $D$ of $G$ such that every vertex in $D$ is within distance two of another vertex in $D$. The minimum size $\gamma_{t2}(G)$ of a semitotal dominating set…

In the Maximum-size Properly Colored Forest problem, we are given an edge-colored undirected graph and the goal is to find a properly colored forest with as many edges as possible. We study this problem within a broader framework by…

We study the generalized min sum set cover (GMSSC) problem, wherein given a collection of hyperedges $E$ with arbitrary covering requirements $k_e$, the goal is to find an ordering of the vertices to minimize the total cover time of the…

The problems studied in this paper originate from Graph Motif, a problem introduced in 2006 in the context of biological networks. Informally speaking, it consists in deciding if a multiset of colors occurs in a connected subgraph of a…

The paper presents an algorithm for minimum vertex cover problem, which is an NP-Complete problem. The algorithm computes a minimum vertex cover of each input simple graph. Tested by the attached MATLAB programs, Stage 1 of the algorithm is…

The Minimum Consistent Subset (MCS) problem arises naturally in the context of supervised clustering and instance selection. In supervised clustering, one aims to infer a meaningful partitioning of data using a small labeled subset.…

The Feedback vertex set with the minimum size is one of Karp's 21 NP-complete problems targeted at breaking all the cycles in a graph. This problem is applicable to a broad variety of domains, including E-commerce networks, database…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a simple graph. A dominating set of $G$ is a subset $S\subseteq V$ such that every vertex not in $S$ is adjacent to at least one vertex in $S$. The cardinality of a smallest dominating set of $G$, denoted by $\gamma(G)$, is…

A vertex coloring of a graph $G$ is distinguishing if non-identity automorphisms do not preserve it. The distinguishing number, $D(G)$, is the minimum number of colors required for such a coloring and the distinguishing threshold,…

For a fixed graph $H$, the $H$-Coloring problem asks whether a given graph admits an edge-preserving function from its vertex set to that of $H$. A seminal theorem of Hell and Ne\v{s}et\v{r}il asserts that the $H$-Coloring problem is…

The anti-Ramsey number, $ar(G, H)$ is the minimum integer $k$ such that in any edge colouring of $G$ with $k$ colours there is a rainbow subgraph isomorphic to $H$, i.e., a copy of $H$ with each of its edges assigned a different colour. The…

For $0\leq \rho\leq 1$ and a coloured graph $G$, a vertex $v$ is $\rho$-happy if at least $\rho \mathrm{deg}(v)$ of its neighbours have the same colour as $v$. Soft happy colouring of a partially coloured graph $G$ is the problem of finding…

In the Minimum Bisection problem, input is a graph $G$ and the goal is to partition the vertex set into two parts $A$ and $B$, such that $||A|-|B|| \le 1$ and the number $k$ of edges between $A$ and $B$ is minimized. This problem can be…

We consider two-class linear classification in a high-dimensional, low-sample size setting. Only a small fraction of the features are useful, the useful features are unknown to us, and each useful feature contributes weakly to the…

For a graph $H$ and an $n$-vertex graph $G$, the $H$-bootstrap process on $G$ is the process which starts with $G$ and, at every time step, adds any missing edges on the vertices of $G$ that complete a copy of $H$. This process eventually…

We consider the problem of adding a fixed number of new edges to an undirected graph in order to minimize the diameter of the augmented graph, and under the constraint that the number of edges added for each vertex is bounded by an integer.…
