On Tree-Constrained Matchings and Generalizations
We consider the following Tree-Constrained Bipartite Matching problem: Given two rooted trees T1 = (V1, E1), T2 = (V2, E2) and a weight function w : V1 × V2 → R+, find a maximu...

Vertex Cover in Graphs with Locally Few Colors
In [13], Erd˝os et al. defined the local chromatic number of a graph as the minimum number of colors that must appear within distance 1 of a vertex. For any ∆ ≥ 2, there are ...
