Covering line graphs with equivalence relations
An equivalence graph is a disjoint union of cliques, and the equivalence number eq(G) of a graph G is the minimum number of equivalence subgraphs needed to cover the edges of G. W...

Tight Bounds for the Cover Time of Multiple Random Walks
We study the cover time of multiple random walks. Given a graph G of n vertices, assume that k independent random walks start from the same vertex. The parameter of interest is the...

Constant-Time Approximation Algorithms via Local Improvements
We present a technique for transforming classical approximation algorithms into constant-time algorithms that approximate the size of the optimal solution. Our technique is applic...

The Largest Compatible Subset Problem for Phylogenetic Data
Abstract. The phylogenetic tree construction is to infer the evolutionary relationship between species from the experimental data. However, the experimental data are often imperfec...

Algorithmic Meta-theorems for Restrictions of Treewidth
Abstract. Possibly the most famous algorithmic meta-theorem is Courcelle's theorem, which states that all MSO-expressible graph properties are decidable in linear time for gra...
