The celebrated notion of important separators bounds the number of small $(S,T)$-separators in a graph which are 'farthest from $S$' in a technical sense. In this paper, we introduce a generalization of this powerful algorithmic primitive…

A k-ranking of a graph G is a labeling of the vertices of G with values from {1,...,k} such that any path joining two vertices with the same label contains a vertex having a higher label. The tree-depth of G is the smallest value of k for…

Given a set of nonempty subsets of some universal set, their intersection graph is defined as the graph with one vertex for each set and two vertices are adjacent precisely when their representing sets have non-empty intersection. Sometimes…

Vertex deletion problems for graphs are studied intensely in classical and parameterized complexity theory. They ask whether we can delete at most k vertices from an input graph such that the resulting graph has a certain property.…

A set $R \subseteq V(G)$ is a resolving set of a graph $G$ if for all distinct vertices $v,u \in V(G)$ there exists an element $r \in R$ such that $d(r,v) \neq d(r,u)$. The metric dimension $\dim(G)$ of the graph $G$ is the minimum…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a simple graph with maximum degree $d$. For an integer $k\in\mathbb{N}$, the $k$-disc of a vertex $v\in V$ is defined as the rooted subgraph of $G$ that is induced by all vertices whose distance to $v$ is at most $k$. The…

A generalization of the celebrated Falconer distance problem asks for a graph $G=(\mathcal{V},\mathcal{E})$, with vertex set $\mathcal{V}$ and edge set $\mathcal{E}$, how large the Hausdorff dimension of a compact set $E\subset…

Given a set $P$ of $n$ points in the plane, its unit-disk graph $G(P)$ is a graph with $P$ as its vertex set such that two points of $P$ are connected by an edge if their (Euclidean) distance is at most $1$. We consider several classical…

Lubiw showed that several variants of Graph Isomorphism are NP-complete, where the solutions are required to satisfy certain additional constraints [SICOMP 10, 1981]. One of these, called Isomorphism With Restrictions, is to decide for two…

Given a graph $G = (V,E)$, $A \subseteq V$, and integers $k$ and $\ell$, the \textsc{$(A,\ell)$-Path Packing} problem asks to find $k$ vertex-disjoint paths of length $\ell$ that have endpoints in $A$ and internal points in $V \setminus A$.…

We define Leavitt path algebras of hypergraphs generalizing simultaneously Leavitt path algebras of finitely separated graphs and Leavitt path algebras of row-finite vertex-weighted graphs. We find linear bases for those algebras, compute…

Minimum resolution set and associated metric dimension provide the basis for unique and systematic labeling of nodes of a graph using distances to a set of landmarks. Such a distance vector set, however, may not be unique to the graph and…

In the k-Apex problem the task is to find at most k vertices whose deletion makes the given graph planar. The graphs for which there exists a solution form a minor closed class of graphs, hence by the deep results of Robertson and Seymour,…

We give a bi-criteria approximation algorithm for the Minimum Nonuniform Partitioning problem, recently introduced by Krauthgamer, Naor, Schwartz and Talwar (2014). In this problem, we are given a graph $G=(V,E)$ on $n$ vertices and $k$…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a simple undirected graph. The open neighbourhood of a vertex $v$ in $G$ is defined as $N_G(v)=\{u\in V~|~ uv\in E\}$; whereas the closed neighbourhood is defined as $N_G[v]= N_G(v)\cup \{v\}$. For an integer $k$, a subset…

We consider the problem of counting matchings in planar graphs. While perfect matchings in planar graphs can be counted by a classical polynomial-time algorithm, the problem of counting all matchings (possibly containing unmatched vertices,…

Let $G = V, E$ be a simple connected undirected graph. A set $X \subseteq V$ is \emph{geodesically convex} if for any pair of vertices $x, y \in X$, all vertices on all shortest paths in $G$ from $x$ to $y$ are contained in $X$. A set $H…

A vertex k-labeling of graph G is distinguishing if the only automorphism that preserves the labels of G is the identity map. The distinguishing number of G, D(G), is the smallest integer k for which G has a distinguishing k-labeling. In…

Two problems in the search of metric characteristics on weighted undirected graphs with non-negative edge weights are being considered. The first problem: a weighted undirected graph with non-negative edge weight is given. The radius,…

The NP-hard 2-Club problem is, given an undirected graph G=(V,E) and l\in N, to decide whether there is a vertex set S\subseteq V of size at least l such that the induced subgraph G[S] has diameter at most two. We make progress towards a…
