We consider the problem of finding the minimum-weight subgraph that satisfies given connectivity requirements. Specifically, given a requirement $r \in \{0,1,2,3\}$ for every vertex, we seek the minimum-weight subgraph that contains, for…
In the k-edge-connected spanning subgraph problem we are given a graph (V, E) and costs for each edge, and want to find a minimum-cost subset F of E such that (V, F) is k-edge-connected. We show there is a constant eps > 0 so that for all k…
Tensor network contraction is central to problems ranging from many-body physics to computer science. We describe how to approximate tensor network contraction through bond compression on arbitrary graphs. In particular, we introduce a…
Given a graph with edge costs, the {\em power} of a node is themaximum cost of an edge incident to it, and the power of a graph is the sum of the powers of its nodes. Motivated by applications in wireless networks, we consider the following…
In the k-2VC problem, we are given an undirected graph G with edge costs and an integer k; the goal is to find a minimum-cost 2-vertex-connected subgraph of G containing at least k vertices. A slightly more general version is obtained if…
We consider approximations for computing minimum weighted cuts in directed graphs. We consider both rooted and global minimum cuts, and both edge-cuts and vertex-cuts. For these problems we give randomized Monte Carlo algorithms that…
Partitioning a connected graph into $k$~vertex-disjoint connected subgraphs of similar (or given) orders is a classical problem that has been intensively investigated since late seventies. Given a connected graph $G=(V,E)$ and a weight…
Given a $k$-vertex-connected graph $G$ and a set $S$ of extra edges (links), the goal of the $k$-vertex-connectivity augmentation problem is to find a set $S' \subseteq S$ of minimum size such that adding $S'$ to $G$ makes it…
We describe a $\frac{4}{3}$-approximation algorithm for the traveling salesman problem in which the distances between points are induced by graph-theoretical distances in an unweighted graph. The algorithm is based on finding a minimum cost…
This paper focuses on finding a spanning tree of a graph to maximize the number of its internal vertices. We present an approximation algorithm for this problem which can achieve a performance ratio $\frac{4}{3}$ on undirected simple…
In the bidirected minimum Manhattan network problem, given a set T of n terminals in the plane, we need to construct a network N(T) of minimum total length with the property that the edges of N(T) are axis-parallel and oriented in a such a…
We present time-efficient distributed algorithms for decomposing graphs with large edge or vertex connectivity into multiple spanning or dominating trees, respectively. As their primary applications, these decompositions allow us to achieve…
We prove several results about chordal graphs and weighted chordal graphs by focusing on exposed edges. These are edges that are properly contained in a single maximal complete subgraph. This leads to a characterization of chordal graphs…
With applications in distribution systems and communication networks, the minimum stretch spanning tree problem is to find a spanning tree T of a graph G such that the maximum distance in T between two adjacent vertices is minimized. The…
Finding a smallest subgraph that is k-edge-connected, or augmenting a k-edge-connected graph with a smallest subset of given candidate edges to become (k+1)-edge-connected, are among the most fundamental Network Design problems. They are…
A spanning tree of an unweighted graph is a minimum average stretch spanning tree if it minimizes the ratio of sum of the distances in the tree between the end vertices of the graph edges and the number of graph edges. We consider the…
We characterise the structure of those graphs of a given order which maximise the number of connected induced subgraphs for seven different graph classes, each with other prescribed parameters like minimum degree, independence number,…
The tree augmentation problem (TAP) is a fundamental network design problem, in which the input is a graph $G$ and a spanning tree $T$ for it, and the goal is to augment $T$ with a minimum set of edges $Aug$ from $G$, such that $T \cup Aug$…
Given a complete graph $K_{n}=(V, E)$ with non-negative edge costs $c\in {\mathbb R}^{E}$, the problem $2EC$ is that of finding a 2-edge connected spanning multi-subgraph of $K_{n}$ of minimum cost. The integrality gap $\alpha\text{2EC}$ of…
Emerging reconfigurable optical communication technologies allow to enhance datacenter topologies with demand-aware links optimized towards traffic patterns. This paper studies the algorithmic problem of jointly optimizing topology and…
