By a well known result the treewidth of k-outerplanar graphs is at most 3k-1. This paper gives, besides a rigorous proof of this fact, an algorithmic implementation of the proof, i.e. it is shown that, given a k-outerplanar graph G, a tree…

This work proposes \textsc{H-Td}, a practical linear-time algorithm for computing an optimal-width tree decomposition of Halin graphs. Unlike state-of-the-art methods based on reduction rules or separators, \textsc{H-Td} exploits the…

Branchwidth determines how graphs, and more generally, arbitrary connectivity (basically symmetric and submodular) functions could be decomposed into a tree-like structure by specific cuts. We develop a general framework for designing…

Discovering dense subgraphs and understanding the relations among them is a fundamental problem in graph mining. We want to not only identify dense subgraphs, but also build a hierarchy among them (e.g., larger but sparser subgraphs formed…

In this paper, we present an exact algorithm for the Steiner tree problem. The algorithm is based on certain pre-computed index structures. Our algorithm offers a practical solution for the Steiner tree problems on graphs of large size and…

In this paper, we present fixed-parameter tractability algorithms for both the undirected and directed versions of the Spanning Tree Isomorphism Problem, parameterized by the size $k$ of a redundant set. A redundant set is a collection of…

Dynamic programming is widely used for exact computations based on tree decompositions of graphs. However, the space complexity is usually exponential in the treewidth. We study the problem of designing efficient dynamic programming…

Given a $k$-node pattern graph $H$ and an $n$-node host graph $G$, the subgraph counting problem asks to compute the number of copies of $H$ in $G$. In this work we address the following question: can we count the copies of $H$ faster if…

The Tree Decomposition Conjecture by Bar\'at and Thomassen states that for every tree $T$ there exists a natural number $k(T)$ such that the following holds: If $G$ is a $k(T)$-edge-connected simple graph with size divisible by the size of…

In this paper we propose, implement, and test the first practical decomposition algorithms for the width parameters treecut width and treedepth. These two parameters have recently gained a lot of attention in the theoretical research…

In this paper we look at the problem of adjacency labeling of graphs. Given a family of undirected graphs the problem is to determine an encoding-decoding scheme for each member of the family such that we can decode the adjacency…

Tree-decompositions and treewidth are of fundamental importance in structural and algorithmic graph theory. The "spread" of a tree-decomposition is the minimum integer $s$ such that every vertex lies in at most $s$ bags. A…

The connection between the maximum spanning tree in a directed graph and the best dependency tree of a sentence has been exploited by the NLP community. However, for many dependency parsing schemes, an important detail of this approach is…

Core decomposition is a classic technique for discovering densely connected regions in a graph with large range of applications. Formally, a $k$-core is a maximal subgraph where each vertex has at least $k$ neighbors. A natural extension of…

The $k$-Detour problem is a basic path-finding problem: given a graph $G$ on $n$ vertices, with specified nodes $s$ and $t$, and a positive integer $k$, the goal is to determine if $G$ has an $st$-path of length exactly $\text{dist}(s, t) +…

Many real discrete optimization problems (DOPs) are $NP$-hard and contain a huge number of variables and/or constraints that make the models intractable for currently available solvers. Large DOPs can be solved due to their special tructure…

This paper develops a measure for bounding the performance of AND/OR search algorithms for solving a variety of queries over graphical models. We show how drawing a connection to the recent notion of hypertree decompositions allows to…

The shrinking operation converts a hypergraph into a graph by choosing, from each hyperedge, two endvertices of a corresponding graph edge. A hypertree is a hypergraph which can be shrunk to a tree on the same vertex set. Klimo\v{s}ov\'{a}…

K-core decomposition is a commonly used metric to analyze graph structure or study the relative importance of nodes in complex graphs. Recent years have seen rapid growth in the scale of the graph, especially in industrial settings. For…

Decomposing a graph into a hierarchical structure via $k$-core analysis is a standard operation in any modern graph-mining toolkit. $k$-core decomposition is a simple and efficient method that allows to analyze a graph beyond its mere…
