Abstract. We prove that for every graph H, there exists a polynomial-time algorithm deciding if a planar graph can be contracted to H. We introduce contractions and topological min...
Given a graph with costs on the edges, the power of a node is the maximum cost of an edge leaving it, and the power of the graph is the sum of the powers of the nodes of this graph...

Given an integer h, a graph G = (V, E) with arbitrary positive edge capacities and k pairs of vertices (s1, t1), (s2, t2), . . . , (sk, tk), called terminals, an h-route cut is a ...
—In hybrid Optical/packet networks, wavelength and VLAN tag continuity along a Label Switched Path are two common constraints. These two types of constraints, referred to as Gene...
Constructing sensor barriers to detect intruders crossing a randomly-deployed sensor network is an important problem. Early results have shown how to construct sensor barriers to ...
