Sparse Reliable Graph Backbones
Given a connected graph G and a failure probability pe for each edge e in G, the reliability of G is the probability that G remains connected when each edge e is removed independe...

On Counting Generalized Colorings
Abstract. The notion of graph polynomials definable in Monadic Second Order Logic, MSOL, was introduced in [Mak04]. It was shown that the Tutte polynomial and its generalization, a...

Approximating Independent Set in Semi-Random Graphs
We present an algorithm for the independent set problem on semi-random graphs, which are generated as follows: An adversary chooses an n-vertex graph, and then each edge is flipp...

Hardness of Embedding Metric Spaces of Equal Size
Abstract. We study the problem embedding an n-point metric space into another n-point metric space while minimizing distortion. We show that there is no polynomial time algorithm t...

Weighted Coloring on Planar, Bipartite and Split Graphs: Complexity and Improved Approximation
We study complexity and approximation of min weighted node coloring in planar, bipartite and split graphs. We show that this problem is NP-complete in planar graphs, even if they a...
