    Cluster Editing for Multi-Layer and Temporal Graphs

    Motivated by the recent rapid growth of research for algorithms to cluster multi-layer and temporal graphs, we study extensions of the classical Cluster Editing problem. In Multi-Layer Cluster Editing we receive ...

    The Complexity of Routing Problems in Forbidden-Transition Graphs and Edge-Colored Graphs

    The notion of forbidden-transition graphs allows for a robust generalization of walks in graphs. In a forbidden-transition graph, every pair of edges incident to a common vertex is permitted or forbidden; a walk ...

    Packing Directed Cycles Quarter- and Half-Integrally

    The celebrated Erdős-Pósa theorem states that every undirected graph that does not admit a family of k vertex-disjoint cycles contains a feedback vertex set (a set of vertices hitting all cycles in the graph) of ...

    Efficient algorithms for measuring the funnel-likeness of DAGs

    We propose funnels as a new natural subclass of DAGs. Intuitively, a DAG is a funnel if every source-sink path can be uniquely identified by one of its arcs. Funnels are an analogue to trees for directed graph...

    The Minimum Feasible Tileset Problem

    We introduce and study the Minimum Feasible Tileset problem: given a set of symbols and subsets of these symbols (scenarios), find a smallest possible number of pairs of symbols (tiles) such that each scenario ca...

    Adapting the Bron–Kerbosch algorithm for enumerating maximal cliques in temporal graphs

    Dynamics of interactions play an increasingly important role in the analysis of complex networks. A modeling framework to capture this is temporal graphs which consist of a set of vertices (entities in the net...

    On the Parameterized Complexity of Computing Balanced Partitions in Graphs

    A balanced partition is a clustering of a graph into a given number of equal-sized parts. For instance, the Bisection problem asks to remove at most k edges in order to partition the vertices into two equal-sized...

    Exploiting a hypergraph model for finding Golomb rulers

    Golomb rulers are special rulers where for any two marks it holds that the distance between them is unique. They find applications in radio frequency selection, radio astronomy, data encryption, communication ...

    Exact combinatorial algorithms and experiments for finding maximum k-plexes

    We propose new practical algorithms to find maximum-cardinality k-plexes in graphs. A k-plex denotes a vertex subset in a graph inducing a subgraph where every vertex has edges to all but at most k vertices in th...
