We give alternative definitions for maximum matching width, e.g. a graph $G$ has $\operatorname{mmw}(G) \leq k$ if and only if it is a subgraph of a chordal graph $H$ and for every maximal clique $X$ of $H$ there exists $A,B,C \subseteq X$…
Given a static vertex-selection problem (e.g. independent set, dominating set) on a graph, we can define a corresponding temporally satisfying reconfiguration problem on a temporal graph which asks for a sequence of solutions to the…
Given a set of $n$ points $P$ in the plane, each colored with one of the $t$ given colors, a color-spanning set $S\subset P$ is a subset of $t$ points with distinct colors. The minimum diameter color-spanning set (MDCS) is a color-spanning…
In 1985, Chv\'{a}tal introduced the concept of star cutsets as a means to investigate the properties of perfect graphs, which inspired many researchers to study cutsets with some specific structures, for example, star cutsets, clique…
The $k$-defective clique model relaxes the strict completeness constraint of the traditional clique by allowing up to $k$ missing edges, providing a robust formulation for detecting cohesive structures in noisy graphs. Consequently, the…
We present a parameterized dichotomy for the \textsc{$k$-Sparsest Cut} problem in weighted and unweighted versions. In particular, we show that the weighted \textsc{$k$-Sparsest Cut} problem is NP-hard for every $k\geq 3$ even on graphs…
We study a natural extension of the Maximum Weight Independent Set Problem (MWIS), one of the most studied optimization problems in Graph algorithms. We are given a graph $G=(V,E)$, a weight function $w: V \rightarrow \mathbb{R^+}$, a…
We propose a fixed-parameter tractable algorithm for the \textsc{Max-Cut} problem on embedded 1-planar graphs parameterized by the crossing number $k$ of the given embedding. A graph is called 1-planar if it can be drawn in the plane with…
We study the {\em Budgeted Dominating Set} (BDS) problem on uncertain graphs, namely, graphs with a probability distribution $p$ associated with the edges, such that an edge $e$ exists in the graph with probability $p(e)$. The input to the…
A dominating set of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is a subset of vertices $S\subseteq V$ such that every vertex $v\in V\setminus S$ has at least one neighbor in set $S$. The corresponding optimization problem is known to be NP-hard. The best known…
We study two variants of \textsc{Maximum Cut}, which we call \textsc{Connected Maximum Cut} and \textsc{Maximum Minimal Cut}, in this paper. In these problems, given an unweighted graph, the goal is to compute a maximum cut satisfying some…
In a large-scale network, we want to choose some influential nodes to make a profit by paying some cost within a limited budget so that we do not have to spend more budget on some nodes adjacent to the chosen nodes; our problem is the…
\emph{Strictly Chordality-$k$ graphs ($SC_k$)} are graphs which are either cycle-free or every induced cycle is of length exactly $k, k \geq 3$. Strictly chordality-3 and strictly chordality-4 graphs are well known chordal and chordal…
Parameterized complexity theory has enabled a refined classification of the difficulty of NP-hard optimization problems on graphs with respect to key structural properties, and so to a better understanding of their true difficulties. More…
Most graphs in real life keep changing with time. These changes can be in the form of insertion or deletion of edges or vertices. Such rapidly changing graphs motivate us to study dynamic graph algorithms. However, three important graph…
We consider several problems related to packing forests in graphs. The first one is to find $k$ edge-disjoint forests in a directed graph $G$ of maximal size such that the indegree of each vertex in these forests is at most $k$. We describe…
Two of the most fundamental distributed symmetry-breaking problems are that of finding a maximal independent set (MIS) and a maximal matching (MM) in a graph. It is a major open question whether these problems can be solved in constant…
In the classic Maximum Weight Independent Set problem we are given a graph $G$ with a nonnegative weight function on vertices, and the goal is to find an independent set in $G$ of maximum possible weight. While the problem is NP-hard in…
By the MAXSAT problem, we are given a set $V$ of $m$ variables and a collection $C$ of $n$ clauses over $V$, i.e., a conjunctive normal form ($\textit{CNF}$) formula. We will seek a truth assignment to maximize the number of satisfied…
The problem of (approximately) counting the independent sets of a bipartite graph (#BIS) is the canonical approximate counting problem that is complete in the intermediate complexity class #RH\Pi_1. It is believed that #BIS does not have an…
