Sharp Separation and Applications to Exact and Parameterized Algorithms
Many divide-and-conquer algorithms employ the fact that the vertex set of a graph of bounded treewidth can be separated in two roughly balanced subsets by removing a small subset o...

Primal-dual meets local search: approximating MST's with nonuniform degree bounds
We present a new bicriteria approximation algorithm for the degree-bounded minimum-cost spanning tree problem: Given an undirected graph with nonnegative edge weights and degree b...

Sub-coloring and Hypo-coloring Interval Graphs
In this paper, we study the sub-coloring and hypo-coloring problems on interval graphs. These problems have applications in job scheduling and distributed computing and can be used...

Note on the Structure of Kruskal's Algorithm
We study the merging process when Kruskal's algorithm is run with random graphs as inputs. Our aim is to analyze this process when the underlying graph is the complete graph ...

Spanners for Geometric Intersection Graphs
A ball graph is an intersection graph of a set of balls with arbitrary radii. Given a real number t > 1, we say that a subgraph G′ of a graph G is a t-spanner of G, if for eve...
