The Lov\'asz Local Lemma is a powerful probabilistic technique for proving the existence of combinatorial objects. It is especially useful for colouring graphs and hypergraphs with bounded maximum degree. This paper presents a general…
Deep neural networks have been applied to a wide range of problems across different application domains with great success. Recently, research into combinatorial optimization problems in particular has generated much interest in the machine…
A graph G is (d_1,..,d_l)-colorable if the vertex set of G can be partitioned into subsets V_1,..,V_l such that the graph G[V_i] induced by the vertices of V_i has maximum degree at most d_i for all 1 <= i <= l. In this paper, we focus on…
In this paper we consider a variation of a recoloring problem, called the Color-Fixing. Let us have some non-proper $r$-coloring $\varphi$ of a graph $G$. We investigate the problem of finding a proper $r$-coloring of $G$, which is "the…
For any $\varepsilon > 0$, we give a polynomial-time $n^\varepsilon$-approximation algorithm for Max Independent Set in graphs of bounded twin-width given with an $O(1)$-sequence. This result is derived from the following time-approximation…
How to obtain a graph from data samples is an important problem in graph signal processing. One way to formulate this graph learning problem is based on Gaussian maximum likelihood estimation, possibly under particular topology constraints.…
Given a connected undirected weighted graph, we are concerned with problems related to partitioning the graph. First of all we look for the closest disconnected graph (the minimum cut problem), here with respect to the Euclidean norm. We…
Proximity graphs have been studied for several decades, motivated by applications in computational geometry, geography, data mining, and many other fields. However, the computational complexity of classic graph problems on proximity graphs…
We work with simple graphs in ZF (Zermelo--Fraenkel set theory without the Axiom of Choice (AC)) and assume that the sets of colors can be either well-orderable or non-well-orderable to prove that the following statements are equivalent to…
We deal with a graph colouring problem that arises in quantum information theory. Alice and Bob are each given a $\pm1$-vector of length $k$, and are to respond with $k$ bits. Their responses must be equal if they are given equal inputs,…
A vertex colouring of a graph is called asymmetric if the only automorphism which preserves it is the identity. Tucker conjectured that if every automorphism of a connected, locally finite graph moves infinitely many vertices, then there is…
We investigate a number of coloring problems restricted to bipartite graphs with bounded diameter. First, we investigate the $k$-List Coloring, List $k$-Coloring, and $k$-Precoloring Extension problems on bipartite graphs with diameter at…
We survey some uses of adjoint functors in graph theory pertaining to colourings, complexity reductions, multiplicativity, circular colourings and tree duality. The exposition of these applications through adjoint functors unifies the…
A linearly ordered (LO) $k$-colouring of a hypergraph is a colouring of its vertices with colours $1, \dots, k$ such that each edge contains a unique maximal colour. Deciding whether an input hypergraph admits LO $k$-colouring with a fixed…
In this extended abstract we deal with the relations between the numerical/diophantine approximation and the symbolic/algebraic geometry approachs to solving of multivariate diophentine polynomial systems, obtaining several consecuences…
We prove several results about the complexity of the role colouring problem. A role colouring of a graph $G$ is an assignment of colours to the vertices of $G$ such that two vertices of the same colour have identical sets of colours in…
We prove that for sufficiently large K, it is NP-hard to color K-colorable graphs with less than 2^{K^{1/3}} colors. This improves the previous result of K versus K^{O(log K)} in Khot [14].
The Graph Pricing problem is among the fundamental problems whose approximability is not well-understood. While there is a simple combinatorial 1/4-approximation algorithm, the best hardness result remains at 1/2 assuming the Unique Games…
A hypergraph is said to be $\chi$-colorable if its vertices can be colored with $\chi$ colors so that no hyperedge is monochromatic. $2$-colorability is a fundamental property (called Property B) of hypergraphs and is extensively studied in…
We prove that, to each synchronous non-local game $\mathcal{G}=(I,O,\lambda)$ with $|I|=n$ and $|O|=m \geq 3$, there is an associated graph $G_{\lambda}$ for which approximate winning strategies for the game $\mathcal{G}$ and the…
