The neighbourhood function NG(t) of a graph G gives, for each t ∈ N, the number of pairs of nodes x, y such that y is reachable from x in less that t hops. The neighbourhood fun...
—A novel formulation for optimal sensor selection and in-network fusion for distributed inference known as the prizecollecting data fusion (PCDF) is proposed in terms of optimal ...

The Odd Cycle Transversal problem (OCT) asks whether a given graph can be made bipartite by deleting at most k of its vertices. In a breakthrough result Reed, Smith, and Vetta (Op...
Many self-organizing and self-adaptive systems use the biologically inspired “gradient” primitive, in which each device in a network estimates its distance to the closest devi...

We study a novel separator property called k-path separable. Roughly speaking, a k-path separable graph can be recursively separated into smaller components by sequentially removi...
