Dillon Mayhew, Courcelle’s Theorem for hypergraphs
Courcelle's Theorem is an influential meta-theorem published in 1990. It tells us that a property of graph can be tested in polynomial time, as long as the property can expressed …

We investigate how minor-monotone graph parameters change if we add a few random edges to a connected graph $H$. Surprisingly, after adding a few random edges, its treewidth, treedepth, genus, …
A (vertex) $k$-coloring of a graph $G$ is a tree-coloring if each color class induces a forest, and is equitable if the sizes of any two color classes differ by …
Given a graph $G$, a decomposition of $G$ is a collection of spanning subgraphs $H_1, \ldots, H_t$ of $G$ such that each edge of $G$ is an edge of $H_i$ …
Integer programming is the problem of optimizing a linear function over the set of integer solutions satisfying a system of inequalities. The most successful technique in practice is the so-called …
Our problem can be described in terms of a two player game, played with the set $\mathcal{S}_n$ of permutations on $\{1,2,\dots,n\}$. First, Player 1 selects a subset $S$ of $\mathcal{S}_n$ and shows …
The strong clique number of a graph $G$ is the maximum size of a set of edges of which every pair has distance at most two. In this talk, we …
A dibond in a directed graph is a bond (i.e. a minimal non-empty cut) for which all of its edges are directed to a common side of the cut. A …
In 1964, Erdős, Hajnal and Moon introduced a saturation version of Turán's classical theorem in extremal graph theory. In particular, they determined the minimum number of edges in a $K_r$-free, …
For a vertex v of a graph G, the local complementation at v is an operation to obtain a new graph denoted by G*v from G such that two distinct vertices x, …
