Motivated by the problem of detecting link-spam, we consider the following graph-theoretic primitive: Given a webgraph G, a vertex v in G, and a parameter δ ∈ (0, 1), compute th...

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...
We study the Equitable Connected Partition problem, which is the problem of partitioning a graph into a given number of partitions, such that each partition induces a connected sub...

It is a well-known result of Fagin that the complexity class NP coincides with the class of problems expressible in existential second-order logic ( 1 1), which allows sentences c...
