A graph $G(V, E)$ is \emph{claw-free} if no vertex has three pairwise non-adjacent neighbours. The Maximum Weight Stable Set (MWSS) Problem in a claw-free graph is a natural generalization of the Matching Problem and has been shown to be…
In this paper we show how to solve the \emph{Maximum Weight Stable Set Problem} in a claw-free graph $G(V, E)$ with $\alpha(G) \le 3$ in time ${\cal O}(|E|\log|V|)$. More precisely, in time ${\cal O}(|E|)$ we check whether $\alpha(G) \le 3$…
An edge-weighted graph $G=(V,E)$ is called stable if the value of a maximum-weight matching equals the value of a maximum-weight fractional matching. Stable graphs play an important role in some interesting game theory problems, such as…
The maximal clique problem, to find the maximally sized clique in a given graph, is classically an NP-complete computational problem, which has potential applications ranging from electrical engineering, computational chemistry,…
We consider problems of finding a maximum size/weight $t$-matching without forbidden subgraphs in an undirected graph $G$ with the maximum degree bounded by $t+1$, where $t$ is an integer greater than $2$. Depending on the variant forbidden…
A clique in an undirected graph G= (V, E) is a subset V' V of vertices, each pair of which is connected by an edge in E. The clique problem is an optimization problem of finding a clique of maximum size in graph. The clique problem is…
Given an integer weighted bipartite graph $\{G=(U\sqcup V, E), w:E\rightarrow \mathbb{Z}\}$ we consider the problems of finding all the edges that occur in some minimum weight matching of maximum cardinality and enumerating all the minimum…
A strong clique in a graph is a clique intersecting all inclusion-maximal stable sets. Strong cliques play an important role in the study of perfect graphs. We study strong cliques in the class of diamond-free graphs, from both structural…
We elucidate the structure of $(P_6,C_4)$-free graphs by showing that every such graph either has a clique cutset, or a universal vertex, or belongs to several special classes of graphs. Using this result, we show that for any…
A minimal separator of a graph $G$ is a set $S \subseteq V(G)$ such that there exist vertices $a,b \in V(G) \setminus S$ with the property that $S$ separates $a$ from $b$ in $G$, but no proper subset of $S$ does. For an integer $k\ge 0$, we…
A complete graph is the graph in which every two vertices are adjacent. For a graph $G=(V,E)$, the complete width of $G$ is the minimum $k$ such that there exist $k$ independent sets $\mathtt{N}_i\subseteq V$, $1\le i\le k$, such that the…
Let $F$ be a set of $n$ objects in the plane and let $G(F)$ be its intersection graph. A balanced clique-based separator of $G(F)$ is a set $S$ consisting of cliques whose removal partitions $G(F)$ into components of size at most $\delta…
Many NP-complete graph problems are polynomial-time solvable on graph classes of bounded clique-width. Several of these problems are polynomial-time solvable on a hereditary graph class ${\cal G}$ if they are so on the atoms (graphs with no…
Let $G$ be an $n$-node graph without two disjoint odd cycles. The algorithm of Artmann, Weismantel and Zenklusen (STOC'17) for bimodular integer programs can be used to find a maximum weight stable set in $G$ in strongly polynomial time.…
An ISK4 in a graph G is an induced subgraph of G that is isomorphic to a subdivision of K4 (the complete graph on four vertices). A wheel is a graph that consists of a chordless cycle, together with a vertex that has at least three…
A strong clique in a graph is a clique intersecting every maximal independent set. We study the computational complexity of six algorithmic decision problems related to strong cliques in graphs and almost completely determine their…
We construct a new quantum algorithm for the graph collision problem; that is, the problem of deciding whether the set of marked vertices contains a pair of adjacent vertices in a known graph G. The query complexity of our algorithm is…
We introduce a family of reductions for removing proper and homogeneous pairs of cliques from a graph G. This family generalizes some routines presented in the literature, mostly in the context of claw-free graphs. These reductions can be…
We propose improved exact and heuristic algorithms for solving the maximum weight clique problem, a well-known problem in graph theory with many applications. Our algorithms interleave successful techniques from related work with novel data…
A graph is inductive $k$-independent if there exists and ordering of its vertices $v_{1},...,v_{n}$ such that $\alpha(G[N(v_{i})\cap V_{i}])\leq k $ where $N(v_{i})$ is the neighborhood of $v_{i}$, $V_{i}=\{v_{i},...,v_{n}\}$ and $\alpha$…
