Exact and Heuristic Solution Approaches for the Cluster Deletion Problem on General Graphs

open access: yesNetworks, Volume 85, Issue 4, Page 351-367, June 2025.
ABSTRACT A cluster graph is a disjoint union of cliques, obtained by clustering the nodes of a given network and then removing the edges between nodes assigned to different clusters. The Cluster Deletion problem asks for the smallest subset of edges to be removed from a network in order to produce a cluster graph, which is equivalent to determining the

On the Spectrum of Threshold Graphs

open access: yesInternational Scholarly Research Notices, Volume 2011, Issue 1, 2011., 2011
The antiregular connected graph on r vertices is defined as the connected graph whose vertex degrees take the values of r − 1 distinct positive integers. We explore the spectrum of its adjacency matrix and show common properties with those of connected threshold graphs, having an equitable partition with a minimal number r of parts.

A survey on algorithmic aspects of modular decomposition

open access: yes, 2009
The modular decomposition is a technique that applies but is not restricted to graphs. The notion of module naturally appears in the proofs of many graph theoretical theorems. Computing the modular decomposition tree is an important preprocessing step to

Siblings of countable cographs

open access: yes, 2020
We show that every countable cograph has either one or infinitely many siblings. This answers, very partially, a conjecture of Thomass . The main tools are the notion of well quasi ordering and the correspondence between cographs and some labelled ordered trees.

Odd chromatic number of graph classes

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, Volume 108, Issue 4, Page 722-744, April 2025.
Abstract A graph is called odd (respectively, even) if every vertex has odd (respectively, even) degree. Gallai proved that every graph can be partitioned into two even induced subgraphs, or into an odd and an even induced subgraph. We refer to a partition into odd subgraphs as an odd colouring of G $G$.

On the Complexity of Role Colouring Planar Graphs, Trees and Cographs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
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 their ...

Proofs Without Syntax

open access: yes, 2006
"[M]athematicians care no more for logic than logicians for mathematics." Augustus de Morgan, 1868. Proofs are traditionally syntactic, inductively generated objects.

Eigenvalue location in cographs [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Applied Mathematics, 2018
We give an $O(n)$ time and space algorithm for constructing a diagonal matrix congruent to A+xI, where A is the adjacency matrix of a cograph and $x\in \mathbb{R}$. Applications include determining the number of eigenvalues of a cograph's adjacency matrix that lie in any interval, obtaining a formula for the inertia of a cograph, and exhibiting ...

The complexity of the perfect matching‐cut problem

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, Volume 108, Issue 3, Page 432-462, March 2025.
Abstract PERFECT MATCHING‐CUT is the problem of deciding whether a graph has a perfect matching that contains an edge‐cut. We show that this problem is NP‐complete for planar graphs with maximum degree four, for planar graphs with girth five, for bipartite five‐regular graphs, for graphs of diameter three, and for bipartite graphs of diameter four.

On Symbolic Ultrametrics, Cotree Representations, and Cograph Edge Decompositions and Partitions

open access: yes, 2015
Symbolic ultrametrics define edge-colored complete graphs K_n and yield a simple tree representation of K_n. We discuss, under which conditions this idea can be generalized to find a symbolic ultrametric that, in addition, distinguishes between edges and
