Exact Algorithm for the Maximum Induced Planar Subgraph Problem

open access: yes, 2011
International audienceWe prove that in an n-vertex graph, an induced planar subgraph of maximum size can be found in time O(1.7347^n ). This is the first algorithm breaking the trivial 2^n n^{O(1)} bound of the brute-force search algorithm for the ...

On matroids induced by packing subgraphs

open access: yesJournal of Combinatorial Theory, Series B, 1988
The class of those connected graphs H is described such that in any graph the vertex set covered by vertex disjoint copies of H and edges form the independent sets of a matroid. The condition is that H is either critical or has a 1-factor, or, finally, it has a degree-one vertex and a vertex c such that for every \(x\neq c\), H-x has a 1-factor.

Fractional List Packing for Layered Graphs

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The fractional list packing number χ ℓ • ( G ) ${\chi }_{\ell }^{\bullet }(G)$ of a graph G $G$ is a graph invariant that has recently arisen from the study of disjoint list‐colourings. It measures how large the lists of a list‐assignment L : V ( G ) → 2 N $L:V(G)\to {2}^{{\mathbb{N}}}$ need to be to ensure the existence of a “perfectly ...

Forbidden substructures: induced subgraphs, Ramsey games, and sparse hypergraphs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We study problems in extremal combinatorics with respect to forbidden induced subgraphs, forbidden colored subgraphs, and forbidden subgraphs. In Chapter 2, we determine exactly which graphs H have the property that almost every H-free graph has a vertex

Maximum triangle-free induced subgraph

open access: yes, 2019
A clever idea is frequently necessarily the key to solve mathematics problems from Prasolov books. Modern mathematics, especially the theory of NP-completeness starting from the classical book of [1], also gradually moves forward similarly.

Halin's Grid Theorem for Digraphs

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Halin showed that every thick end of every graph contains an infinite grid. We extend Halin's theorem to digraphs. More precisely, we show that for every infinite family ℛ ${\rm{ {\mathcal R} }}$ of disjoint equivalent out‐rays there is a grid whose vertical rays are contained in ℛ ${\rm{ {\mathcal R} }}$.

Subgraph Queries by Context-free Grammars

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Bioinformatics, 2008
We describe a method for querying vertex- and edge-labeled graphs using context-free grammars to specify the class of interesting paths. We introduce a novel problem, finding the connection subgraph induced by the set of matching paths between given two ...

Large Nearly Regular Induced Subgraphs [PDF]

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Discrete Mathematics, 2008
For a real c \geq 1 and an integer n, let f(n,c) denote the maximum integer f so that every graph on n vertices contains an induced subgraph on at least f vertices in which the maximum degree is at most c times the minimum degree. Thus, in particular, every graph on n vertices contains a regular induced subgraph on at least f(n,1) vertices. The problem

On Tight Tree‐Complete Hypergraph Ramsey Numbers

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chvátal showed that for any tree T $T$ with k $k$ edges, the Ramsey number R ( T , n ) = k ( n − 1 ) + 1 $R(T,n)=k(n-1)+1$. For r = 3 $r=3$ or 4, we show that, if T $T$ is an r $r$‐uniform nontrivial tight tree, then the hypergraph Ramsey number R ( T , n ) = Θ ( n r − 1 ) $R(T,n)={\rm{\Theta }}({n}^{r-1})$.
