maximal sets of vertices that avoids a clique

I am looking for some known algorithm that finds, for a given graph, all the maximal sets of vertices that avoid a clique of some given size $k$. I'd prefer one written in MATLAB, but other languages ...

Sum of products on a directed acyclic graph

Is there a textbook/paper that I can reference for the following problem? I am looking for a concise proof that I can cite. Let $G=(V,E)$ be a weighted directed acyclic graph, and consider $s,t\in V$....

Standard test for the recognition of toroidal graphs

Is there a standard test for the recognition of toroidal graphs? I have been using the Boyer–Myrvold planarity algorithm, which has a MATLAB and C++ implementation.

Do there (or might there) exist computable invariants for Aut(G)-invariant subgraphs of a graph G?

I am interested in algorithms for computing all subgraphs (not necessarily induced) of a graph $G$ up to $Aut(G)$ isomorphism. I had the idea of partitioning the edges of the graph like so $$\{F|E(G)\...

Decomposing a planar graph

Thomassen proved that the vertex set of every planar graph can be decomposed into two sets inducing a 1-degenerate graph and a 2-degenerate graph, respectively (C. Thomassen, Decomposing a planar ...

Is there a polynomial-time algorithm to check if a signed graph contains an odd-K5 minor?

I suspect this exists, if anyone has a reference please that would be very helpful. By signed graph, I mean each edge is designated either odd or even (e.g. as in Guenin's result for weakly bipartite ...

Tutte's Reduction of Minimum Weight d-Factors to Matching

I am currently interested in minimum weight regular d-spanners (i.e. d-factors) of complete graphs. When searching the internet for related articles, I came across this one, which is concerned with ...

Shortest hyperpath algorithm in intuitionistic fuzzy hypergraphs

I was looking for an algorithm to calculate the shortest hyperpath in intuitionistic fuzzy hypergraphs and I found only this article (which propose two algorithms). Are there any others algorithms ...

finding dominating cycles in $2K_2$-free graphs

A cycle $C$ in a connected graph $G$ is called dominating if its complement $V(G)-V(C)$ is an independent set. H.J. Veldman proved in 1983 (Disc. Math. v.43, 281-96) a general result that in ...

Maximal Minimum Weight DAGs

In the case of undirected, connected graphs the name for the maximal cycle-free subgraph of minimal weight is called Minimum Spanning Tree, and the efficient algorithms for their calculation are well ...

Reference Request for: Finding Large Bipartite Subgraphs via Destruction of Odd Cycles in Graphs

From the observation, that a bipartite graph doesn't contain odd cycles, it would seem natural to attempt to destroy all odd cycles in the most efficient way, by either removing edges or vertices of ...

Recovering a Weighted Graph from Shortest Path Distances

I am interested in the following problem (A) and its related formulation (B). (A) Suppose that $G = (V,E,w)$ is an unknown weighted graph on the vertex set $V$ and that one has access to $d_G(v,v'), \...

Theorems about the directed bandwidth of a rooted tree?

Let $T$ be a rooted tree with root $r$. Say an ordering $v_1,\ldots,v_n$ of the vertices of $T$ is a search order if $v_1=r$ and for all $2 \leq i \leq n$, there is $j < i$ such that $v_j$ is the ...

Disjoint Rooted Paths with Specified Patterns

Let $S:=$ { $s_i : i \in [k]$ } and $T:=$ { $t_i : i \in [k]$ } be disjoint subsets of vertices of a graph $G$. Furthermore, let $A$ be a subset of $S_k$ (the symmetric group on $[k]$). A set of ...
