An induced matching in graph G is a matching which is an induced subgraph of G. Clearly, among two vertices with the same neighborhood (called twins) at most one is matched in any...

We present a randomized algorithm for finding maximum matchings in planar graphs in time O(nω/2 ), where ω is the exponent of the best known matrix multiplication algorithm. Sin...
A nonplanar graph G is near-planar if it contains an edge e such that G−e is planar. The problem of determining the crossing number of a near-planar graph is exhibited from diffe...
