Given a $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$, the Ramsey number $R(H;q)$ is the smallest integer $N$ such that any $q$-coloring of the edges of the complete $k$-uniform hypergraph on $N$ vertices contains a monochromatic copy of $H$. When $H$ is a complete hypergraph, a classical argument of Erdős, Hajnal, and Rado reduces the general problem to the …

A graph $G$ is (list, DP) $k$-critical if the (list, DP) chromatic number is $k$ but for every proper subgraph $G'$ of $G$, the (list, DP) chromatic number of $G'$ is less than $k$. For $k\geq 4$, we show a bound on the minimum number of edges in a DP $k$-critical graph, and our bound … |

Robertson and Seymour introduced branch-width as a connectivity invariant of graphs in their proof of the Wagner conjecture. Decompositions based on this invariant provide a natural framework for implementing dynamic-programming algorithms to solve graph optimization problems. We will discuss the computational issues involved in using branch-width as as a general tool in discrete optimization. |

Vertex Cover is perhaps the most-studied problem in parameterized complexity that frequently serves as a testing ground for new concepts and techniques. In this talk, I will focus on a generalization of Vertex Cover called Component Order Connectivity (COC). Given a graph G, an integer k and a positive integer d, the task is to … |
