The Path Contraction and Cycle Contraction problems take as input an undirected graph $G$ with $n$ vertices, $m$ edges and an integer $k$ and determine whether one can obtain a path or a cycle, respectively, by performing at most $k$ edge…

Given a graph, does there exist an orientation of the edges such that the resulting directed graph is strongly connected? Robbins' theorem [Robbins, Am. Math. Monthly, 1939] states that such an orientation exists if and only if the graph is…

In this thesis, we present new techniques to deal with fundamental algorithmic graph problems where graphs are directed and partially dynamic, i.e. undergo either a sequence of edge insertions or deletions: - Single-Source Reachability…

The girth of a graph, i.e. the length of its shortest cycle, is a fundamental graph parameter. Unfortunately all known algorithms for computing, even approximately, the girth and girth-related structures in directed weighted $m$-edge and…

A bipartite graph $G=(U,V,E)$ is convex if the vertices in $V$ can be linearly ordered such that for each vertex $u\in U$, the neighbors of $u$ are consecutive in the ordering of $V$. An induced matching $H$ of $G$ is a matching such that…

A subgraph $T$ of a digraph $D$ is an {\em out-branching} if $T$ is an oriented spanning tree with only one vertex of in-degree zero (called the {\em root}). The vertices of $T$ of out-degree zero are {\em leaves}. In the {\sc Directed…

In 1985, Chv\'{a}tal introduced the concept of star cutsets as a means to investigate the properties of perfect graphs, which inspired many researchers to study cutsets with some specific structures, for example, star cutsets, clique…

In a directed graph $D$ on vertex set $v_1,\dots ,v_n$, a \emph{forward arc} is an arc $v_iv_j$ where $i<j$. A pair $v_i,v_j$ is \emph{forward connected} if there is a directed path from $v_i$ to $v_j$ consisting of forward arcs. In the…

We study fundamental graph parameters such as the Diameter and Radius in directed graphs, when distances are measured using a somewhat unorthodox but natural measure: the distance between $u$ and $v$ is the minimum of the shortest path…

We report on recent advances in rule-based graph programming, which allow us to match the time complexity of some fundamental imperative graph algorithms. In general, achieving the time complexity of graph algorithms implemented in…

Since counting subgraphs in general graphs is, by and large, a computationally demanding problem, it is natural to try and design fast algorithms for restricted families of graphs. One such family that has been extensively studied is that…

A temporal graph is a graph in which edges are assigned a time label. Two nodes u and v of a temporal graph are connected one to the other if there exists a path from u to v with increasing edge time labels. We consider the problem of…

A directed graph $G=(V,E)$ is strongly biconnected if $G$ is strongly connected and its underlying graph is biconnected. A strongly biconnected directed graph $G=(V,E)$ is called $2$-vertex-strongly biconnected if $|V|\geq 3$ and the…

In this paper, we study the (weighted) bichromatic two-center problem on graphs. The input consists of a graph $G$ of $n$ (weighted) vertices and $m$ edges, and a set $\mathcal{P}$ of pairs of distinct vertices, where no vertex appears in…

Given an undirected graph $G$, the problem of deciding whether $G$ admits a simple and proper time-labeling that makes it temporally connected is known to be NP-hard (G\"obel et al., 1991). In this article, we relax this problem and ask…

The canonical tree-decomposition theorem, given by Robertson and Seymour in their seminal graph minors series, turns out to be one of the most important tool in structural and algorithmic graph theory. In this paper, we provide the…

We present faster algorithms for approximate maximum flow in undirected graphs with good separator structures, such as bounded genus, minor free, and geometric graphs. Given such a graph with $n$ vertices, $m$ edges along with a recursive…

Our work concerns algorithms for an unweighted variant of Maximum Flow. In the All-Pairs Connectivity (APC) problem, we are given a graph $G$ on $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, and are tasked with computing the maximum number of edge-disjoint…

In this paper, we investigate the computational complexity of subgraph reconfiguration problems in directed graphs. More specifically, we focus on the problem of reconfiguring arborescences in a digraph, where an arborescence is a directed…

We develop two different methods to achieve subexponential time parameterized algorithms for problems on sparse directed graphs. We exemplify our approaches with two well studied problems. For the first problem, {\sc $k$-Leaf…
