Stable gonality is computable [PDF]
Discrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2019 Stable gonality is a multigraph parameter that measures the complexity of a graph. It is defined using maps to trees. Those maps, in some sense, divide the edges equally over the edges of the tree; stable gonality asks for the map with the minimum number

An improved algorithm for the vertex cover $P_3$ problem on graphs of bounded treewidth [PDF]
Discrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2019 Given a graph $G=(V,E)$ and a positive integer $t\geq2$, the task in the vertex cover $P_t$ ($VCP_t$) problem is to find a minimum subset of vertices $F\subseteq V$ such that every path of order $t$ in $G$ contains at least one vertex from $F$.

Treewidth and Hyperbolicity of the Internet [PDF]
2011 IEEE 10th International Symposium on Network Computing and Applications, 2011 We study the measurement of the Internet according to two graph parameters: treewidth and hyperbolicity. Both tell how far from a tree a graph is. They are computed from snapshots of the Internet released by CAIDA, DIMES, AQUALAB, UCLA, Rocketfuel and Strasbourg University, at the AS or at the router level.

Tree-width for first order formulae [PDF]
Logical Methods in Computer Science, 2012 We introduce tree-width for first order formulae \phi, fotw(\phi). We show that computing fotw is fixed-parameter tractable with parameter fotw. Moreover, we show that on classes of formulae of bounded fotw, model checking is fixed parameter tractable ...

Width, Depth, and Space: Tradeoffs between Branching and Dynamic Programming
Algorithms, 2018 Treedepth is a well-established width measure which has recently seen a resurgence of interest. Since graphs of bounded treedepth are more restricted than graphs of bounded tree- or pathwidth, we are interested in the algorithmic utility of this ...

Parameterized Complexity of Equitable Coloring [PDF]
Discrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2019 A graph on $n$ vertices is equitably $k$-colorable if it is $k$-colorable and every color is used either $\left\lfloor n/k \right\rfloor$ or $\left\lceil n/k \right\rceil$ times.

On Exact Algorithms for Treewidth
ACM Transactions on Algorithms, 2006 We give experimental and theoretical results on the problem of computing the treewidth of a graph by exact exponential-time algorithms using exponential space or using only polynomial space. We first report on an implementation of a dynamic programming algorithm for computing the treewidth of a graph with running time O

The pathwidth and treewidth of cographs [PDF]
SIAM Journal on Discrete Mathematics, 1990 Summary: It is shown that the pathwidth of a cograph equals its treewidth, and a linear time algorithm to determine the pathwidth of a cograph and build a corresponding path-decomposition is given.

A Coarse Geometric Approach to Graph Layout Problems
Journal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We define a range of new coarse geometric invariants based on various graph–theoretic measures of complexity for finite graphs, including treewidth, pathwidth, cutwidth and bandwidth. We prove that, for bounded degree graphs, these invariants can be used to define functions which satisfy a strong monotonicity property, namely, they are ...
