A simple polynomial algorithm for the longest path problem on cocomparability graphs

GB Mertzios, DG Corneil - SIAM Journal on Discrete Mathematics, 2012 - SIAM
Given a graph G, the longest path problem asks to compute a simple path of G with the
largest number of vertices. This problem is the most natural optimization version of the well …

Labelled well-quasi-order for permutation classes

R Brignall, V Vatter - arXiv preprint arXiv:2103.08243, 2021 - arxiv.org
While the theory of labelled well-quasi-order has received significant attention in the graph
setting, it has not yet been considered in the context of permutation patterns. We initiate this …

L(2, 1)-Labeling of Permutation and Bipartite Permutation Graphs

S Paul, M Pal, A Pal - Mathematics in Computer Science, 2015 - Springer
Abstract An L (2, 1)-labeling of a graph is an assignment of non-negative integers, called
colours to the vertex set of G such that the difference between the colours assigned to …

[PDF][PDF] Rainbow vertex coloring bipartite graphs and chordal graphs

P Heggernes, D Issac, J Lauri, PT Lima… - … of Computer Science …, 2018 - drops.dagstuhl.de
Given a graph with colors on its vertices, a path is called a rainbow vertex path if all its
internal vertices have distinct colors. We say that the graph is rainbow vertex-connected if …

Contracting to a longest path in H-free graphs

W Kern, D Paulusma - arXiv preprint arXiv:1810.01542, 2018 - arxiv.org
We prove two dichotomy results for detecting long paths as patterns in a given graph. The
NP-hard problem Longest Induced Path is to determine the longest induced path in a graph …

The longest path problem is polynomial on cocomparability graphs

K Ioannidou, SD Nikolopoulos - Algorithmica, 2013 - Springer
The longest path problem is the problem of finding a path of maximum length in a graph. As
a generalization of the Hamiltonian path problem, it is NP-complete on general graphs and …

Path eccentricity of graphs

R Gómez, J Gutiérrez - Discrete Applied Mathematics, 2023 - Elsevier
Let G be a connected graph. The eccentricity of a path P, denoted by ecc G (P), is the
maximum distance from P to any vertex in G. In the Central path (CP) problem, our aim is to …
