Treewidth-based algorithms for the small parsimony problem on networks. [PDF]
Phylogenetic reconstruction is one of the paramount challenges of contemporary bioinformatics. A subtask of existing tree reconstruction algorithms is modeled by the Small Parsimony problem: given a tree T and an assignment of character-states to its ...

An Improved Parameterized Algorithm for Treewidth [PDF]
We give an algorithm that takes as input an n-vertex graph G and an integer k, runs in time 2O(k2) nO(1), and outputs a tree decomposition of G of width at most k, if such a decomposition exists.

A Faster Small Treewidth SDP Solver [PDF]
Semidefinite programming is a fundamental tool in optimization and theoretical computer science. It has been extensively used as a black-box for solving many problems, such as embedding, complexity, learning, and discrepancy.

Planar and Minor-Free Metrics Embed into Metrics of Polylogarithmic Treewidth with Expected Multiplicative Distortion Arbitrarily Close to 1* [PDF]
We prove that there is a randomized polynomialtime algorithm that given an edge-weighted graph G excluding a fixed-minor Q on n vertices and an accuracy parameter $\varepsilon\gt$ 0, constructs an edge-weighted graph H and an embedding $\eta: V(G ...

Tight Algorithms for Connectivity Problems Parameterized by Modular-Treewidth [PDF]
We study connectivity problems from a fine-grained parameterized perspective. Cygan et al. (TALG 2022) obtained algorithms with single-exponential running time $\alpha^{tw} n^{O(1)}$ for connectivity problems parameterized by treewidth ($tw$) by ...

A Single-Exponential Time 2-Approximation Algorithm for Treewidth [PDF]
We give an algorithm, that given an n-vertex graph $G$ and an integer k, in time 2O(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.

Metric dimension parameterized by treewidth in chordal graphs [PDF]
The metric dimension has been introduced independently by Harary, Melter and Slater in 1975 to identify vertices of a graph G using its distances to a subset of vertices of G.

Treewidth versus clique number. III. Tree-independence number of graphs with a forbidden structure [PDF]
We continue the study of $(\mathrm{tw},\omega)$-bounded graph classes, that is, hereditary graph classes in which the treewidth can only be large due to the presence of a large clique, with the goal of understanding the extent to which this property has ...

Low Treewidth Embeddings of Planar and Minor-Free Metrics [PDF]
Cohen-Addad, Filtser, Klein and Le [FOCS’20] constructed a stochastic embedding of minor-free graphs of diameter D into graphs of treewidth $O_{\epsilon}(\log n)$ with expected additive distortion $+\epsilon D$. Cohen-Addad et al. then used the embedding

Product structure of graph classes with bounded treewidth [PDF]
We show that many graphs with bounded treewidth can be described as subgraphs of the strong product of a graph with smaller treewidth and a bounded-size complete graph.
