Treewidth versus Clique Number. I. Graph Classes with a Forbidden Structure [PDF]

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Discrete Mathematics, 2020
Treewidth is an important graph invariant, relevant for both structural and algorithmic reasons. A necessary condition for a graph class to have bounded treewidth is the absence of large cliques.

Constant-degree graph expansions that preserve the treewidth

open access: yes, 2007
Many hard algorithmic problems dealing with graphs, circuits, formulas and constraints admit polynomial-time upper bounds if the underlying graph has small treewidth.

Sparsest Cut on Bounded Treewidth Graphs: Algorithms and Hardness Results [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We give a 2-approximation algorithm for Non-Uniform Sparsest Cut that runs in time $n^{O(k)}$, where $k$ is the treewidth of the graph. This improves on the previous $2^{2^k}$-approximation in time $\poly(n) 2^{O(k)}$ due to Chlamt\'a\v{c} et al.

Structural properties of graph products

open access: yesJournal 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.

On the k-rainbow domination in graphs with bounded tree-width

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Graph Theory and Applications, 2021
Given a positive integer k and a graph G = (V, E), a function f from V to the power set of Ik is called a k-rainbow function if for each vertex v ∈ V, f(v)=∅ implies ∪u ∈ N(v)f(u)=Ik where N(v) is the set of all neighbors of vertex v and Ik = {1, …, k ...

Treewidth Lower Bounds with Brambles [PDF]

open access: yesAlgorithmica, 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.

On Constrained Minimum Weight Edge Covers With Applications to Emergency Planning

open access: yesNetworks, Volume 85, Issue 3, Page 261-271, April 2025.
ABSTRACT In this paper we present a new covering problem, called Min Cost q$$ q $$‐Single Location Cover, where we are given a fixed positive integer q$$ q $$, a finite ground set J$$ J $$, an integral positive demand dj$$ {d}_j $$ for each element j∈J$$ j\in J $$, a collection 𝒥 of subsets of J$$ J $$, an integral positive cost cS$$ {c}_S $$ and an ...

Treewidth, crushing, and hyperbolic volume [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
We prove that there exists a universal constant $c$ such that any closed hyperbolic 3-manifold admits a triangulation of treewidth at most $c$ times its volume.

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.
