图的消去割宽问题

图搜索问题在组合最优化学科中是一个著名的NP-完全问题.现在我们给这个问题一个限制性条件：图中的边在一次性被搜索后立即堵塞,使得这些边在以后的图搜索过程中不再被搜索.该问题起源于流行病的预防、管道的保养和维护等领域. 在这个条件限制下,图搜索问题可以转化为图的消去割宽问题.本文主要研究了图的消去割宽的多项式时间算法、基本性质以及消去割宽和其它图论参数如树宽、路宽的关系,得到了一些特殊图类的消去割宽值.     

k-树的补图的最小填充和树宽

一个图的最小填充问题是寻求边数最少的弦母图,一个图的树宽问题是寻求团数最小的弦母图,这两个问题分别在稀疏矩阵计算及图的算法设计中有非常重要的作用．一个k-树G的补图G称为k-补树．本文给出了k-补树G的最小填充数f(G) 及树宽TW(G)．     

两个完全图的乘积的树宽

本文确定了乘积图Km×Kn的树宽.我们的结果是若m和n都是偶数,且m≥n,或m是奇数而n是偶数,或m和n都是奇数且n≥m,则Km×Kn的树宽是TW(Km×Kn)=n(m+1)/2-1.这恰好是图Km×Kn的带宽.     

图的扩张与稀疏矩阵计算中的若干优化问题

本文研究从稀疏矩阵计算中提出的若干离散最优化问题,即带宽,树宽,路宽,侧廓,扩充侧廓及填充问题。实际上,它们是一类图扩张问题;这些问题同时来源于各式各样的课题,如图子式理论,VLSI电路设计,互联网络及分子生物学等,本文从图论观点着重讨论两种统一途径：图的标号及图的扩张。     

树的线图的图扩充问题

图G的弦图扩充问题包含两个问题:图G的最小填充问题和树宽问题,分别表示为f(G)和TW(G);图G的区间图扩充问题也包含两个问题:侧廓问题和路宽问题,分别表示为P(G)和PW(G).对一般图而言,它们都是NP-困难问题.一些特殊图类的填充数、树宽、侧廓问题和路宽具体值已被求出.主要研究树T的线图L(T)的弦图扩充问题;其次涉及到了两类特殊树—毛虫树和直径为4的树的线图的区间图扩充问题.

图模式挖掘中的子图同构算法

图模式挖掘问题在Web挖掘、生物信息学、社会关系等众多领域有广泛的应用,它涉及到子图的搜索以及子图的同构问题.这两个问题都具有相当高的计算复杂度,现有的子图同构问题大多采用最小编码算法,但对无标签图特别是对无标签无向图,该算法效率较底,从而子图的同构成为图模式挖掘问题的一个瓶颈.针对无标签图,以代数理论为基础,分别利用度序列和特征值构造了两种子图同构算法,用于对有向图和无向图的同构判别.最后对2个真实生物网络进行了仿真实验,结果表明,算法的效率优于现有算法.

A bound on the treewidth of planar even-hole-free graphs

The class of planar graphs has unbounded treewidth, since the k×k grid, ∀k∈N, is planar and has treewidth k. So, it is of interest to determine subclasses of planar graphs which have bounded treewidth. In this paper, we show that if G is an even-hole-free planar graph, then it does not contain a 9×9 grid minor. As a result, we have that even-hole-free planar graphs have treewidth at most 49.     

Steepest ascent can be exponential in bounded treewidth problems

We investigate the complexity of local search based on steepest ascent. We show that even when all variables have domains of size two and the underlying constraint graph of variable interactions has bounded treewidth (in our construction, treewidth 7), there are fitness landscapes for which an exponential number of steps may be required to reach a local optimum. This is an improvement on prior recursive constructions of long steepest ascents, which we prove to need constraint graphs of unbounded treewidth.     

On the Dimension of Posets with Cover Graphs of Treewidth 2

In 1977, Trotter and Moore proved that a poset has dimension at most 3 whenever its cover graph is a forest, or equivalently, has treewidth at most 1. On the other hand, a well-known construction of Kelly shows that there are posets of arbitrarily large dimension whose cover graphs have treewidth 3. In this paper we focus on the boundary case of treewidth 2. It was recently shown that the dimension is bounded if the cover graph is outerplanar (Felsner, Trotter, and Wiechert) or if it has pathwidth 2 (Biró, Keller, and Young). This can be interpreted as evidence that the dimension should be bounded more generally when the cover graph has treewidth 2. We show that it is indeed the case: Every such poset has dimension at most 1276.     

Treewidth of the Line Graph of a Complete Graph

In recent articles by Grohe and Marx, the treewidth of the line graph of a complete graph is a critical example—in a certain sense, every graph with large treewidth “contains” . However, the treewidth of was not determined exactly. We determine the exact treewidth of the line graph of a complete graph.     

Parameters Tied to Treewidth

Treewidth is a graph parameter of fundamental importance to algorithmic and structural graph theory. This article surveys several graph parameters tied to treewidth, including separation number, tangle number, well‐linked number, and Cartesian tree product number. We review many results in the literature showing these parameters are tied to treewidth. In a number of cases we also improve known bounds, provide simpler proofs, and show that the inequalities presented are tight.     

Nordhaus-Gaddum for treewidth

We prove that, for every n-vertex graph G, the treewidth of G plus the treewidth of the complement of G is at least n−2. This bound is tight.
