We study approximation algorithms, integrality gaps, and hardness of approximation, of two problems related to cycles of "small" length k in a given graph. The instance f...
The Feedback Vertex Set problem asks whether a graph contains q vertices meeting all its cycles. This is not a local property, in the sense that we cannot check if q vertices meet...

Inference problems in graphical models can be represented as a constrained optimization of a free energy function. It is known that when the Bethe free energy is used, the fixedpo...
The clock latency scheduling problem is usually solved on the sequential graph, also called register-to-register graph. In practice, the the extraction of the sequential graph for...
Abstract. Given an undirected graph G and an integer k ≥ 0, the NPhard 2-Layer Planarization problem asks whether G can be transformed into a forest of caterpillar trees by remov...
