On treewidth and maximum cliques

Innovations in Graph Theory
We construct classes of graphs that are variants of the so-called layered wheel. One of their key properties is that while the treewidth is bounded by a function of the clique number, the construction can be adjusted to make the dependence grow ...

Treewidth versus clique number. IV. Tree-independence number of graphs excluding an induced star

arXiv.org
Many recent works address the question of characterizing induced obstructions to bounded treewidth. In 2022, Lozin and Razgon completely answered this question for graph classes defined by finitely many forbidden induced subgraphs.

Hardness of Metric Dimension in Graphs of Constant Treewidth

Algorithmica, 2021
The Metric Dimension problem asks for a minimum-sized resolving set in a given (unweighted, undirected) graph G. Here, a set S⊆V(G)\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb ...

Faster Sampling Algorithms for Polytopes with Small Treewidth

BigData Congress [Services Society]
Sampling is a fundamental problem in optimization, machine learning and theoretical computer science. A common region of interest for sampling is the polytope, which is defined by a set of linear inequalities.

Treewidth Inapproximability and Tight ETH Lower Bound

Symposium on the Theory of Computing
Despite the (algorithmic) importance of treewidth, both its complexity and approximability present large knowledge gaps. While the best currently known polynomial-time approximation algorithm has ratio O(√logOPT), no approximation factor could be ruled ...

Chordal Graphs, Even‐Hole‐Free Graphs and Sparse Obstructions to Bounded Treewidth

Journal of Graph Theory
Even‐hole‐free graphs pose a central challenge in identifying hereditary classes of bounded treewidth. We investigate this matter by presenting and studying the following conjecture: for an integer and a graph , every even‐hole‐free graph of large enough

Rapid Mixing for the Hardcore Glauber Dynamics and Other Markov Chains in Bounded-Treewidth Graphs

International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation, 2021
We give a new rapid mixing result for a natural random walk on the independent sets of a graph $G$. We show that when $G$ has bounded treewidth, this random walk -- known as the Glauber dynamics for the hardcore model -- mixes rapidly for all fixed ...

Approximation schemes for bounded distance problems on fractionally treewidth-fragile graphs

Embedded Systems and Applications, 2021
We give polynomial-time approximation schemes for monotone maximization problems expressible in terms of distances (up to a fixed upper bound) and efficiently solvable in graphs of bounded treewidth.

Current Algorithms for Detecting Subgraphs of Bounded Treewidth are Probably Optimal

International Colloquium on Automata, Languages and Programming, 2021
The Subgraph Isomorphism problem is of considerable importance in computer science. We examine the problem when the pattern graph H is of bounded treewidth, as occurs in a variety of applications.

Minimum Stable Cut and Treewidth

International Colloquium on Automata, Languages and Programming, 2021
A stable or locally-optimal cut of a graph is a cut whose weight cannot be increased by changing the side of a single vertex. In this paper we study Minimum Stable Cut, the problem of finding a stable cut of minimum weight. Since this problem is NP-hard,
