Vertex cover in bipartite graphs with bounds on cost and size
Suppose we have a bipartite graph $G$ with non-negative integer vertex costs. We would like to find a vertex cover of cost at most $C$ and size (number of vertices) at most $S$, where $C$ and $S$ are ...

Digraph weak connectivity in $O(V)$ space and $O(V+E)$ time
A digraph is called weakly connected if its underlying undirected graph is connected.
You are given a digraph $G$ with $V$ vertices and $E$ edges as a read-only data structure consisting of lists of ...

Efficient algorithm to construct path augmented graphs with smallest diameter?
I am interested in special graph constructions that have the smallest diameter. We have a path graph $P_n$ ($N$ is even). We add new set of edges $C$ between path nodes such that set $C$ forms a ...

What is known about the complexity of this covering problem?
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a graph. A vertex set $X\subseteq V$ is called critical if $X\neq\emptyset$ and no vertex in $V\setminus X$ is adjacent to exactly one vertex in $X$. The problem is to find a vertex ...

Karp hardness of two cycles which lengths differ by one
Our problem is as follows:
NEARLY-EQUAL-CYCLE-PAIR
Input: An undirected graph $G(V,E)$
Output: YES if there exists $2$ (simple) cycles in $G$ which lengths differ by $1$, otherwise NO
Is it $NP$-...

Complexity of weighted fractional edge coloring
Given an edge-weighted multigraph $G=(V,E)$ with a positive, rational weight function $(w(e): e \in E)$, the weighted fractional edge coloring problem (WFECP) is to compute ($\min 1^T x$ subject to $...

Computing the chromatic polynomial of graph modulo $x-3$
The chromatic polynomial of graph $P(G,x)$ is univariate
polynomial which counts the number of colorings of $G$
with $x$ colors for natural $x$.
Graph is not $k$ colorable iff $P(G,k)=0$.
The ...

Complexity of finding single source paths with capacity constraints and length constraints
Let $G=(V,A)$ be a directed graph with distinguished vertex $s\in V$ and let $c:A\rightarrow{\mathbb N}$ denote arc capacities. For any $t\in V,t\not=s$ we are given two numbers: $C_{t},L_{t}$. Let $...
