Complexity and Approximation Results for the Connected Vertex Cover Problem
We study a variation of the vertex cover problem where it is required that the graph induced by the vertex cover is connected. We prove that this problem is polynomial in chordal g...

Acyclic and Frugal Colourings of Graphs
Given a graph G = (V, E), a proper vertex colouring of V is t-frugal if no colour appears more than t times in any neighbourhood and is acyclic if each of the bipartite graphs con...

Connected Vertex Covers in Dense Graphs
We consider the variant of the minimum vertex cover problem in which we require that the cover induces a connected subgraph. We give new approximation results for this problem in d...

Vertex and Edge Covers with Clustering Properties: Complexity and Algorithms
We consider the concepts of a t-total vertex cover and a t-total edge cover (t 1), which generalize the notions of a vertex cover and an edge cover, respectively. A t-total verte...

Approximating the minimum clique cover and other hard problems in subtree filament graphs
Subtree filament graphs are the intersection graphs of subtree filaments in a tree. This class of graphs contains subtree overlap graphs, interval filament graphs, chordal graphs,...
