We show that a cubic graph $G$ of order $n$ has an induced $2$-regular subgraph of order at least a) $\frac{n-2}{4-\frac{4}{k}}$, if $G$ has no induced cycle of length more than $k$, b) $\frac{5n+6}{8}$, if $G$ has no induced cycle of…

The Induced Graph Matching problem asks to find k disjoint induced subgraphs isomorphic to a given graph H in a given graph G such that there are no edges between vertices of different subgraphs. This problem generalizes the classical…

Many real-world networks can be modeled as graphs. Finding dense subgraphs is a key problem in graph mining with applications in diverse domains. In this paper, we consider two variants of the densest subgraph problem where multiple graph…

The $2$-admissibility of a graph is a promising measure to identify real-world networks which have an algorithmically favourable structure. In contrast to other related measures, like the weak/strong $2$-colouring numbers or the maximum…

Given a graph $G$, the maximal induced subgraphs problem asks to enumerate all maximal induced subgraphs of $G$ that belong to a certain hereditary graph class. While its optimization version, known as the minimum vertex deletion problem in…

We present an algorithm that takes as input a graph $G$ with weights on the vertices, and computes a maximum weight independent set $S$ of $G$. If the input graph $G$ excludes a path $P_k$ on $k$ vertices as an induced subgraph, the…

For an integer $r$, the graph $P_6+rP_3$ has $r+1$ components, one of which is a path on $6$ vertices, and each of the others is a path on $3$ vertices. In this paper we provide a polynomial-time algorithm to test if a graph with no induced…

The {\it partially disjoint paths problem} is: {\it given:} a directed graph, vertices $r_1,s_1,\ldots,r_k,s_k$, and a set $F$ of pairs $\{i,j\}$ from $\{1,\ldots,k\}$, {\it find:} for each $i=1,\ldots,k$ a directed $r_i-s_i$ path $P_i$…

We consider the problem of devising algorithms to count exactly the number of independent sets of a graph G . We show that there is a polynomial time algorithm for this problem when G is restricted to the class of strongly orderable graphs,…

Graph coloring problems are a central topic of study in the theory of algorithms. We study the problem of partially coloring partially colorable graphs. For $\alpha \leq 1$ and $k \in \mathbb{Z}^+$, we say that a graph $G=(V,E)$ is…

The neighborhood polynomial of graph $G$ is the generating function for the number of vertex subsets of $G$ of which the vertices have a common neighbor in $G$. In this paper, we investigate the behavior of this polynomial under several…

We propose a general method performed over multivalued decision diagrams that enumerates all subgraphs of an input graph that are characterized by input forbidden induced subgraphs. Our method combines elaborations of classical set…

Vertex splitting is a graph modification operation in which a vertex is replaced by multiple vertices such that the union of their neighborhoods equals the neighborhood of the original vertex. We introduce and study vertex splitting as a…

Distributed computing excels at processing large scale data, but the communication cost for synchronizing the shared parameters may slow down the overall performance. Fortunately, the interactions between parameter and data in many problems…

This paper presents a graph signal processing algorithm to uncover the intrinsic low-rank components and the underlying graph of a high-dimensional, graph-smooth and grossly-corrupted dataset. In our problem formulation, we assume that the…

A popular graph clustering method is to consider the embedding of an input graph into R^k induced by the first k eigenvectors of its Laplacian, and to partition the graph via geometric manipulations on the resulting metric space. Despite…

The Maximum Induced Matching problem asks to find the maximum $k$ such that, given a graph $G=(V,E)$, can we find a subset of vertices $S$ of size $k$ for which every vertices $v$ in the induced graph $G[S]$ has exactly degree $1$. In this…

A hole in a graph is an induced subgraph which is a cycle of length at least four. We prove that for every positive integer k, every triangle-free graph with sufficiently large chromatic number contains holes of k consecutive lengths.

The disjoint paths problem is a fundamental problem in algorithmic graph theory and combinatorial optimization. For a given graph $G$ and a set of $k$ pairs of terminals in $G$, it asks for the existence of $k$ vertex-disjoint paths…

In this paper, we show reduction methods for search algorithms on graphs using quantum walks. By using a graph partitioning method called equitable partition for the the given graph, we determine "effective subspace" for the search…
