In this paper we present an algorithm that generates $k$-noncrossing, $\sigma$-modular diagrams with uniform probability. A diagram is a labeled graph of degree $\le 1$ over $n$ vertices drawn in a horizontal line with arcs $(i,j)$ in the…

A geometric graph is a drawing of a graph in the plane where the vertices are drawn as points in general position and the edges as straight-line segments connecting their endpoints. It is plane if it contains no crossing edges. We study…

We provide an algorithm that verifies the optimal colored Tverberg problem for $10$ points in the plane: Every $10$ points in the plane in color classes of size at most $3$ can be partitioned in $4$ rainbow pieces such that their convex…

The geometric intersection number of a curve on a surface is the minimal number of self-intersections of any homotopic curve, i.e. of any curve obtained by continuous deformation. Given a curve $c$ represented by a closed walk of length at…

In the k-Apex problem the task is to find at most k vertices whose deletion makes the given graph planar. The graphs for which there exists a solution form a minor closed class of graphs, hence by the deep results of Robertson and Seymour,…

We present a deterministic algorithm which, given a graph G with n vertices and an integer 1<m < n, computes in n^{O(ln m)} time the sum of weights w(S) over all m-subsets S of the set of vertices of G, where w(S)=exp{gamma t m +O(1/m)}…

A \emph{geometric graph} is a graph whose vertex set is a set of points in general position in the plane, and its edges are straight line segments joining these points. We show that for every integer $k \ge 2$, there exists a constat $c>0$…

A graph is outer-1-planar if it can be drawn in the plane so that all vertices are on the outer face and each edge is crossed at most once. In this paper, we completely determine the edge chromatic number of outer 1-planar graphs.

Determining unknotting numbers is a large and widely studied problem. We consider the more general question of the unknotting number of a spatial graph. We show the unknotting number of spatial graphs is subadditive. Let $g$ be an embedding…

We present a near-linear-time algorithm that, given a bridgeless cubic graph, finds a perfect matching intersecting every 3-edge-cut in exactly one edge. This improves over a cubic algorithm of Boyd et al. for the same problem, and over our…

Let $D$ be a straight-line drawing of a graph. The rectilinear 2-colored crossing number of $D$ is the minimum number of crossings between edges of the same color, taken over all possible 2-colorings of the edges of $D$. First, we show…

Bipartite graphs model the relationship between two disjoint sets of objects. They have a wide range of applications and are often visualized as a 2-layered drawing, where each set of objects is visualized as a set of vertices (points) on…

A drawing of a graph is {\em pseudolinear} if there is a pseudoline arrangement such that each pseudoline contains exactly one edge of the drawing. The {\em pseudolinear crossing number} of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of pairwise…

We discuss the complexity of path enumeration and counting in weighted temporal graphs. In a weighted temporal graph, each edge has an availability time, a traversal time and some real cost. We introduce two bicriteria temporal min-cost…

A 1-planar graph is a graph which has a drawing on the plane such that each edge is crossed at most once. If a 1-planar graph is drawn in that way, the drawing is called a {\it 1-plane graph}. A graph is maximal 1-plane (or 1-planar) if no…

There have been several algorithms designed to optimise matrix multiplication. From schoolbook method with complexity $O(n^3)$ to advanced tensor-based tools with time complexity $O(n^{2.3728639})$ (lowest possible bound achieved), a lot of…

We discuss the recently introduced concept of k-in-out graphs, and provide a construction for k-in-out graphs for any positive integer k. We derive a lower bound for the number of vertices of a k-in-out graph for any positive integer k, and…

A novel algorithm for the computation of the quadratic numerical range is presented and exemplified yielding much better results in less time compared to the random vector sampling method. Furthermore, a bound on the probability for the…

We present, to the best of the authors' knowledge, all known results for the (planar) crossing numbers of specific graphs and graph families. The results are separated into various categories; specifically, results for general graph…

In the Interval Completion problem we are given a graph G and an integer k, and the task is to turn G using at most k edge additions into an interval graph, i.e., a graph admitting an intersection model of intervals on a line. Motivated by…
