A branch-and-bound (BB) tree certifies a dual bound on the value of an integer program. In this work, we introduce the tree compression problem (TCP): Given a BB tree T that certifies a dual bound, can we obtain a smaller tree with the same…

We give a dynamic programming solution to find the minimum cost of a diameter constrained Steiner tree in case of directed graphs. Then we show a simple reduction from undirected version to the directed version to realize an algorithm of…

The {\sc Directed Maximum Leaf Out-Branching} problem is to find an out-branching (i.e. a rooted oriented spanning tree) in a given digraph with the maximum number of leaves. In this paper, we improve known parameterized algorithms and…

Let $T$ be a tree with induced partial order $\preceq$. We investigate centered Gaussian processes $X=(X_t)_{t\in T}$ represented as $$ X_t=\sigma(t)\sum_{v \preceq t}\alpha(v)\xi_v $$ for given weight functions $\alpha$ and $\sigma$ on $T$…

Let G = (V,E) be a finite, simple and undirected graph. For $S \subseteq V$, let $\delta(S,G) = \{(u,v) \in E : u \in S \mbox {and} v \in V-S \}$ be the edge boundary of $S$. Given an integer $i$, $1 \leq i \leq | V |$, let the edge…

Constructing the maximum spanning tree $T$ of an edge-weighted connected graph $G$ is one of the important research topics in computer science and optimization, and the related research results have played an active role in practical…

Given a graph $G$ rooted at a vertex $r$ and weight functions, $\gamma, \tau: E(G) \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$, the generalized cable-trench problem (CTP) is to find a single spanning tree that simultaneously minimizes the sum of the total edge…

We consider a model of directed polymers on a regular tree with a disorder given by independent, identically distributed weights attached to the vertices. For suitable weight distributions this model undergoes a phase transition with…

We investigate the computation of minimum-cost spanning trees satisfying prescribed vertex degree constraints: Given a graph $G$ and a constraint function $D$, we ask for a (minimum-cost) spanning tree $T$ such that for each vertex $v$, $T$…

We study a link between complete non-ambiguous trees (CNATs) and permutations exhibited by Daniel Chen and Sebastian Ohlig in recent work. In this, they associate a certain permutation to the leaves of a CNAT, and show that the number of…

Inference problems in graphical models are often approximated by casting them as constrained optimization problems. Message passing algorithms, such as belief propagation, have previously been suggested as methods for solving these…

We study a new type of random minimum spanning trees. It is built on the complete graph where each vertex is given a weight, which is a positive real number. Then, each edge is given a capacity which is a random variable that only depends…

Twin-width is a structural width parameter introduced by Bonnet, Kim, Thomass\'e and Watrigant [FOCS 2020]. Very briefly, its essence is a gradual reduction (a contraction sequence) of the given graph down to a single vertex while…

In the \textsc{Waypoint Routing Problem} one is given an undirected capacitated and weighted graph $G$, a source-destination pair $s,t\in V(G)$ and a set $W\subseteq V(G)$, of \emph{waypoints}. The task is to find a walk which starts at the…

We consider the random wetting transition on the Cayley tree, i.e. the problem of a directed polymer on the Cayley tree in the presence of random energies along the left-most bonds. In the pure case, there exists a first-order transition…

Assorted weighted shifts over finite rooted directed trees are studied. Their complex symmetry is characterized.

We develop a theory of completeness for weight structures on stable categories, dual to the theory of complete t-structures. As in the bounded case, we show that complete weight structures are determined by their weight heart, giving rise…

We address the problem of efficiently gathering correlated data from a wired or a wireless sensor network, with the aim of designing algorithms with provable optimality guarantees, and understanding how close we can get to the known…

We consider the complexity of the firefighter problem where b>=1 firefighters are available at each time step. This problem is proved NP-complete even on trees of degree at most three and budget one (Finbow et al.,2007) and on trees of…

An algorithm is proposed for constructing directed spanning forests of the minimum weight, in which the maximum possible degree of affinity between the minimum forests is preserved when the number of trees changes. The correctness of the…
