For a fixed graph $H$, the $H$-free-editing problem asks whether we can modify a given graph $G$ by adding or deleting at most $k$ edges such that the resulting graph does not contain $H$ as an induced subgraph. The problem is known to be…

Many hard graph problems can be solved efficiently when restricted to graphs of bounded treewidth, and more generally to graphs of bounded clique-width. But there is a price to be paid for this generality, exemplified by the four problems…

We study provably effective and efficient data reduction for a class of NP-hard graph modification problems based on vertex degree properties. We show fixed-parameter tractability for NP-hard graph completion (that is, edge addition) cases…

The Fundamental Morphism Theorem is a categorical version of the First Noether Isomorphism Theorem for categories that do not have kernels or cokernels. We consider two categories of graphs. Both categories will admit graphs with multiple…

The aim of this chapter is to provide an adequate graph theoretic framework for the description of periodic bifurcations which have recently been discovered in descendant trees of finite p-groups. The graph theoretic concepts of rooted…

The Pathwidth Theorem states that if a class of graphs has unbounded pathwidth, then it contains all trees as graph minors. We prove a similar result for dense graphs. More precisely, we give a finite family of tree-like patterns and prove…

We obtain structure theorems for graphs excluding a fan (a path with a universal vertex) or a dipole ($K_{2,k}$) as a topological minor. The corresponding decompositions can be computed in FPT linear time. This is motivated by the study of…

A fundamental graph problem is to recognize whether the vertex set of a graph $G$ can be bipartitioned into sets $A$ and $B$ such that $G[A]$ and $G[B]$ satisfy properties $\Pi_A$ and $\Pi_B$, respectively. This so-called…

We show that for every graph $H$, there is a hereditary weakly sparse graph class $\mathcal C_H$ of unbounded treewidth such that the $H$-free (i.e., excluding $H$ as an induced subgraph) graphs of $\mathcal C_H$ have bounded treewidth.…

The storage capacity of a graph measures the maximum amount of information that can be stored across its vertices, such that the information at any vertex can be recovered from the information stored at its neighborhood. The study of this…

A kernelization for a parameterized decision problem $\mathcal{Q}$ is a polynomial-time preprocessing algorithm that reduces any parameterized instance $(x,k)$ into an instance $(x',k')$ whose size is bounded by a function of $k$ alone and…

Most state-of-the-art graph kernels only take local graph properties into account, i.e., the kernel is computed with regard to properties of the neighborhood of vertices or other small substructures. On the other hand, kernels that do take…

It is known that a number of natural graph problems which are FPT parameterized by treewidth become W-hard when parameterized by clique-width. It is therefore desirable to find a different structural graph parameter which is as general as…

Poljak and Turzik (Discrete Mathematics 1986) introduced the notion of {\lambda}-extendible properties of graphs as a generalization of the property of being bipartite. They showed that for any 0 < {\lambda} < 1 and {\lambda}-extendible…

A polynomial Turing kernel for some parameterized problem $P$ is a polynomial-time algorithm that solves $P$ using queries to an oracle of $P$ whose sizes are upper-bounded by some polynomial in the parameter. Here the term "polynomial"…

This work analyzes Graph Neural Networks, a generalization of Fully-Connected Deep Neural Nets on Graph structured data, when their width, that is the number of nodes in each fullyconnected layer is increasing to infinity. Infinite Width…

The Odd Cycle Transversal problem (OCT) asks whether a given graph can be made bipartite (i.e., 2-colorable) by deleting at most l vertices. We study structural parameterizations of OCT with respect to their polynomial kernelizability,…

We consider the problem of classifying graphs using graph kernels. We define a new graph kernel, called the generalized shortest path kernel, based on the number and length of shortest paths between nodes. For our example classification…

A linear system on a smooth complex algebraic surface gives rise to a family of smooth curves in the surface. Such a family has a topological monodromy representation valued in the mapping class group of a fiber. Extending arguments of…

In this paper, we investigate the complexity of Maximum Independent Set (MIS) in the class of $H$-free graphs, that is, graphs excluding a fixed graph as an induced subgraph. Given that the problem remains $NP$-hard for most graphs $H$, we…
