We introduce the concept of multi-directional width-bounded geometric separator and get improved separator for the grid graph, which improves exact algorithm for the protein foldin...
An arc of a graph is an oriented edge and a 3-arc is a 4-tuple (v, u, x, y) of vertices such that both (v, u, x) and (u, x, y) are paths of length two. The 3-arc graph of a graph ...
In the first part of the paper, we reexamine the all-pairs shortest paths (APSP) problem and present a new algorithm with running time O(n3 log3 log n/ log2 n), which improves all...
The smallest n such that every colouring of the edges of Kn must contain a monochromatic star K1,s+1 or a properly edge-coloured Kt is denoted by f(s, t). Its existence is guarant...
Clique-width is an important graph parameter whose computation is NP-hard. In fact we do not know of any other algorithm than brute force for the exact computation of clique-width...
