Practical Access to Dynamic Programming on Tree Decompositions
Algorithms, 2019 Parameterized complexity theory has led to a wide range of algorithmic breakthroughs within the last few decades, but the practicability of these methods for real-world problems is still not well understood.

Structural properties of graph products
Journal of Graph Theory, Volume 109, Issue 2, Page 107-136, June 2025.Abstract Dujmovć, Joret, Micek, Morin, Ueckerdt, and Wood established that every planar graph is a subgraph of the strong product of a graph with bounded treewidth and a path. Motivated by this result, this paper systematically studies various structural properties of cartesian, direct and strong products.

The complexity of the perfect matching‐cut problem
Journal 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.

Treewidth Lower Bounds with Brambles [PDF]
Algorithmica, 2005 In this paper we present a new technique for computing lower bounds for graph treewidth. Our technique is based on the fact that the treewidth of a graph g is the maximum order of a bramble of g minus one. We give two algorithms: one for general graphs, and one for planar graphs.

Super stable tensegrities and the Colin de Verdière number ν
Journal of Graph Theory, Volume 108, Issue 3, Page 401-431, March 2025.Abstract A super stable tensegrity introduced by Connelly in 1982 is a globally rigid discrete structure made from stiff bars and struts connected by cables with tension. We introduce the super stability number of a multigraph as the maximum dimension that a multigraph can be realized as a super stable tensegrity, and show that it equals the Colin de ...

Contraction obstructions for treewidth
Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Series B, 2011 AbstractWe provide two parameterized graphs Γk, Πk with the following property: for every positive integer k, there is a constant ck such that every graph G with treewidth at least ck, contains one of Kk, Γk, Πk as a contraction, where Kk is a complete graph on k vertices.

An Experimental Study of the Treewidth of Real-World Graph Data (Extended Version) [PDF]
International Conference on Database Theory, 2019 Treewidth is a parameter that measures how tree-like a relational instance is, and whether it can reasonably be decomposed into a tree. Many computation tasks are known to be tractable on databases of small treewidth, but computing the treewidth of a ...
