[HTML][HTML] Semi-proper interval graphs

R Scheffler - Discrete Applied Mathematics, 2025 - Elsevier
We present a new subclass of interval graphs that generalizes connected proper interval
graphs. These graphs are characterized by vertex orderings called connected perfect …

[PDF][PDF] Ready to order?: on vertex and edge orderings of graphs

R Scheffler - 2023 - opus4.kobv.de
Vertex and edge orderings of graphs are commonly used in algorithmic graph theory. Such
orderings can encode structural properties of graphs in a condensed way and, thus, they …

Computing Hamiltonian paths with partial order restrictions

J Beisegel, F Ratajczak, R Scheffler - ACM Transactions on Computation …, 2024 - dl.acm.org
When solving the Hamiltonian path problem it seems natural to be given additional
precedence constraints for the order in which the vertices are visited. For example one could …

Revisiting path-type covering and partitioning problems

P Manuel - arXiv preprint arXiv:1807.10613, 2018 - arxiv.org
Covering problems belong to the foundation of graph theory. There are several types of
covering problems in graph theory such as covering the vertex set by stars (domination …

A sufficient condition for the unpaired k-disjoint path coverability of interval graphs

JH Park - The Journal of Supercomputing, 2021 - Springer
Given disjoint source and sink sets, S={s_1, ..., s_k\} S= s 1,…, sk and T={t_1, ..., t_k\} T= t
1,…, tk, in a graph G, an unpaired k-disjoint path cover joining S and T is a set of pairwise …

The longest cycle problem is polynomial on interval graphs

J Shang, P Li, Y Shi - Theoretical Computer Science, 2021 - Elsevier
The longest cycle problem is the problem of finding a cycle with maximal vertices in a graph.
Although it is solvable in polynomial time on few trivial graph classes, the longest cycle …

Polynomial time algorithm for k-vertex-edge dominating problem in interval graphs

P Li, A Wang - Journal of Combinatorial Optimization, 2023 - Springer
Let G be a connected interval graph with n vertices and m edges. For any positive integer k
and any subset S of E (G), we design an O (k| S|+ m) time algorithm to find a minimum k …

Parameterized Complexity of -Path Packing

R Belmonte, T Hanaka, M Kanzaki, M Kiyomi… - Algorithmica, 2022 - Springer
Given a graph G=(V, E) G=(V, E), A ⊆ VA⊆ V, and integers k and ℓ ℓ, the (A, ℓ)(A, ℓ)-Path
Packing problem asks to find k vertex-disjoint paths of length exactly ℓ ℓ that have endpoints …

[HTML][HTML] Disjoint path covers joining prescribed source and sink sets in interval graphs

JH Park, JH Kim, HS Lim - Theoretical Computer Science, 2019 - Elsevier
A disjoint path cover of a graph is a set of internally vertex-disjoint paths that altogether
cover every vertex of the graph. Given two disjoint source and sink sets, S and T, in a graph …

The k-th Roman domination problem is polynomial on interval graphs

P Li - Journal of Combinatorial Optimization, 2024 - Springer
Let G be some simple graph and k be any positive integer. Take h: V (G)→{0, 1,…, k+ 1} and
v∈ V (G), let AN h (v) denote the set of vertices w∈ NG (v) with h (w)≥ 1. Let AN h [v]= AN h …
