In the 1970s Erdos asked whether the chromatic number of intersection graphs of line segments in the plane is bounded by a function of their clique number. We show the answer is no. Specifically, for each positive integer k we construct a triangle-free fam ...
This paper studies sufficient conditions to obtain efficient distributed algorithms coloring graphs optimally (i.e. with the minimum number of colors) in the LOCAL model of computation. Most of the work on distributed vertex coloring so far has focused on ...
An ordered graph H is a simple graph with a linear order on its vertex set. The corresponding Turan problem, first studied by Pach and Tardos, asks for the maximum number ex(
A thrackle is a graph drawn in the plane so that every pair of its edges meet exactly once: either at a common end vertex or in a proper crossing. We prove that any thrackle of n vertices has at most 1.3984n edges. Quasi-thrackles are defined similarly, ex ...
This project consisted in bringing the linker call graph up to date with dotty/master, restructure the code, make it support the full Scala language and make it support calls to Java code. Also implemented dead code elimination of unreachable methods based ...
We study the impact of metric constraints on the realizability of planar graphs. Let G be a subgraph of a planar graph H (where H is the "host" of G). The graph G is free in H if for every choice of positive lengths for the edges of G, the host H has a pla ...
Suppose that the vertices of a graph G are colored with two colors in an unknown way. The color that occurs on more than half of the vertices is called the majority color (if it exists), and any vertex of this color is called a majority vertex. We study th ...
In this paper, we consider the problem of estimating the underlying graph associated with an Ising model given a number of independent and identically distributed samples. We adopt an approximate recovery criterion that allows for a number of missed edges ...
A diameter graph in is a graph whose set of vertices is a finite subset of and whose set of edges is formed by pairs of vertices that are at diameter apart. This paper is devoted to the study of different extremal properties of diameter graphs in and on a ...
A topological graph G is a graph drawn in the plane with vertices represented by points and edges represented by continuous arcs connecting the vertices. If every edge is drawn as a straight-line segment, then G is called a geometric graph. A k-grid in a t ...
