Path partition problems on trees have found various applications. In this paper, we present an $O(n \log n)$ time algorithm for solving the following variant of path partition problem: given a rooted tree of $n$ nodes $1, \ldots, n$, where…

We study the problem of finding a temporal hybridization network for a set of phylogenetic trees that minimizes the number of reticulations. First, we introduce an FPT algorithm for this problem on an arbitrary set of $m$ binary trees with…

An L(2,1)-labeling of a graph $G$ is an assignment $f$ from the vertex set $V(G)$ to the set of nonnegative integers such that $|f(x)-f(y)|\ge 2$ if $x$ and $y$ are adjacent and $|f(x)-f(y)|\ge 1$ if $x$ and $y$ are at distance 2, for all…

We study the NP-hard problem of approximating a Minimum Routing Cost Spanning Tree in the message passing model with limited bandwidth (CONGEST model). In this problem one tries to find a spanning tree of a graph $G$ over $n$ nodes that…

We consider the problem of finding the smallest graph that contains two input trees each with at most $n$ vertices preserving their distances. In other words, we look for an isometric-universal graph with the minimum number of vertices for…

Treedepth is a central parameter to algorithmic graph theory. The current state-of-the-art in computing and approximating treedepth consists of a $2^{O(k^2)} n$-time exact algorithm and a polynomial-time $O(\text{OPT} \log^{3/2}…

This paper addresses the problem of finding a representation of a subtree distance, which is an extension of the tree metric. We show that a minimal representation is uniquely determined by a given subtree distance, and give a linear time…

We give an algorithm that, given an $n$-vertex graph $G$ and an integer $k$, in time $2^{O(k)} n$ either outputs a tree decomposition of $G$ of width at most $2k + 1$ or determines that the treewidth of $G$ is larger than $k$. This is the…

The tree inclusion problem is, given two node-labeled trees $P$ and $T$ (the ``pattern tree'' and the ``target tree''), to locate every minimal subtree in $T$ (if any) that can be obtained by applying a sequence of node insertion operations…

The {Congested Clique} is a distributed-computing model for single-hop networks with restricted bandwidth that has been very intensively studied recently. It models a network by an $n$-vertex graph in which any pair of vertices can…

Recently we presented the first algorithm for maintaining the set of nodes reachable from a source node in a directed graph that is modified by edge deletions with $o(mn)$ total update time, where $m$ is the number of edges and $n$ is the…

Motivated by an application in computational topology, we consider a novel variant of the problem of efficiently maintaining dynamic rooted trees. This variant requires merging two paths in a single operation. In contrast to the standard…

We present an algorithm for min-cost flow in graphs with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, given a tree decomposition of width $\tau$ and size $S$, and polynomially bounded, integral edge capacities and costs, running in…

The nni-distance is a well-known distance measure for phylogenetic trees. We construct an efficient parallel approximation algorithm for the nni-distance in the CRCW-PRAM model running in O(log n) time on O(n) processors. Given two…

Almost 30 years ago, Zhang and Shasha (1989) published a seminal paper describing an efficient dynamic programming algorithm computing the tree edit distance, that is, the minimum number of node deletions, insertions, and replacements that…

Classically, the edit distance of two length-$n$ strings can be computed in $O(n^2)$ time, whereas an $O(n^{2-\epsilon})$-time procedure would falsify the Orthogonal Vectors Hypothesis. If the edit distance does not exceed $k$, the running…

We present an implementation of a recent algorithm to compute shortest-path trees in unit disk graphs in $O(n\log n)$ worst-case time, where $n$ is the number of disks. In the minimum-separation problem, we are given $n$ unit disks and two…

Given an undirected edge-weighted graph $G=(V,E)$ with $m$ edges and $n$ vertices, the minimum cut problem asks to find a subset of vertices $S$ such that the total weight of all edges between $S$ and $V \setminus S$ is minimized. Karger's…

It is an open question whether there exists a polynomial-time algorithm for computing the rotation distances between pairs of extended ordered binary trees. The problem of computing the rotation distance between an arbitrary pair of trees,…

We present $O(\log^2 \log n)$ time 3-coloring, maximal independent set and maximal matching algorithms for trees in the Massively Parallel Computation (MPC) model. Our algorithms are deterministic, apply to arbitrary-degree trees and work…
