Agile Sets in Graphs

Christian Elbracht, Jay Lilian Kneip, Maximilian Teegen

A set of vertices in a graph is agile if, however we partition the set into two parts, we can always find two vertex-disjoint connected subgraphs where one covers the first and the…

The Unravelling Problem

Christian Elbracht, Jay Lilian Kneip, Maximilian Teegen

We identify and study a simple combinatorial problem that is derived from submodularity issues encountered in the theory of tangles of graphs and abstract separation systems.

The Structure of Submodular Separation Systems

Christian Elbracht, Jay Lilian Kneip, Maximilian Teegen

We analyse various structural and order-theoretical aspects of abstract separation systems and partial lattices, as well as the relationship between the different submodularity con…

A canonical tree-of-tangles theorem for structurally submodular separation systems

Christian Elbracht, Jay Lilian Kneip

We show that every structurally submodular separation system admits a canonical tree set which distinguishes its tangles.

Clustering with Tangles: Algorithmic Framework and Theoretical Guarantees

Solveig Klepper, Christian Elbracht, Diego Fioravanti +4

Originally, tangles were invented as an abstract tool in mathematical graph theory to prove the famous graph minor theorem. In this paper, we showcase the practical potential of ta…

A Note on Generic Tangle Algorithms

Christian Elbracht, Jay Lilian Kneip, Maximilian Teegen

In this note we gather the theoretical outlines of three basic algorithms for tangles in abstract separation systems: a naive tree search for finding tangles; an algorithm which ou…
