On the Burning Game: Nordhaus-Gaddum Bounds and Graph Products

Nina Chiarelli, Vesna Iršič Chenoweth, Marko Jakovac +2

We continue research on the burning game on graphs. Given a graph , two players, Burner and Staller, take turns in selecting vertices of to burn. All burned vertices spread…

Patrolling cop vs omniscient robber

Nina Chiarelli, Paul Dorbec, Miloš Stojaković +1

We study a variant of the classical Cops and Robbers game with one cop and one robber. The cop follows a fixed walk on the graph, called a patrol, that is chosen before the game be…

On -Roman graphs: complexity of recognition and the case of split graphs

Kenny Bešter Štorgel, Nina Chiarelli, Lara Fernández +4

For a positive integer , a -Roman dominating function of a graph is a function satisfying $\sum_{u\in N(v)} f(u) \geq…

Sandwich Monotonicity and Recognition of Weighted Graph Classes

Jesse Beisegel, Nina Chiarelli, Ekkehard Köhler +5

Edge-weighted graphs play an important role in the theory of Robinsonian matrices and similarity theory, particularly via the concept of level graphs, that is, graphs obtained from…

The Simultaneous Interval Number: A New Width Parameter that Measures the Similarity to Interval Graphs

Jesse Beisegel, Nina Chiarelli, Ekkehard Köhler +3

We propose a novel way of generalizing the class of interval graphs, via a graph width parameter called the simultaneous interval number. This parameter is related to the simultane…

Allocation of Indivisible Items with a Common Preference Graph: Minimizing Total Dissatisfaction

Nina Chiarelli, Clément Dallard, Andreas Darmann +4

Allocating indivisible items among a set of agents is a frequently studied discrete optimization problem. In the setting considered in this work, the agents' preferences over the i…

Minimizing Maximum Dissatisfaction in the Allocation of Indivisible Items under a Common Preference Graph

Nina Chiarelli, Clément Dallard, Andreas Darmann +4

We consider the task of allocating indivisible items to agents, when the agents' preferences over the items are identical. The preferences are captured by means of a directed acycl…

Fair Allocation Algorithms for Indivisible Items under Structured Conflict Constraints

Nina Chiarelli, Matjaž Krnc, Martin Milanič +2

We consider the fair allocation of indivisible items to several agents with additional conflict constraints. These are represented by a conflict graph where each item corresponds t…

Allocation of Indivisible Items with Individual Preference Graphs

Nina Chiarelli, Clément Dallard, Andreas Darmann +5

This paper studies the allocation of indivisible items to agents, when each agent's preferences are expressed by means of a directed acyclic graph. The vertices of each preference…

Strong cliques in diamond-free graphs

Nina Chiarelli, Berenice Martínez Barona, Martin Milanič +2

A strong clique in a graph is a clique intersecting all inclusion-maximal stable sets. Strong cliques play an important role in the study of perfect graphs. We study strong cliques…

Fair allocation of indivisible items with conflict graphs

Nina Chiarelli, Matjaž Krnc, Martin Milanič +3

We consider the fair allocation of indivisible items to several agents and add a graph theoretical perspective to this classical problem. Namely, we introduce an incompatibility re…

New Algorithms for Weighted -Domination and Total -Domination Problems in Proper Interval Graphs

Nina Chiarelli, Tatiana Romina Hartinger, Valeria Alejandra Leoni +2

Given a positive integer , a -dominating set in a graph is a set of vertices such that every vertex not in the set has at least neighbors in the set. A total -domi…

Minimum Connected Transversals in Graphs: New Hardness Results and Tractable Cases Using the Price of Connectivity

Nina Chiarelli, Tatiana R. Hartinger, Matthew Johnson +2

We perform a systematic study in the computational complexity of the connected variant of three related transversal problems: Vertex Cover, Feedback Vertex Set, and Odd Cycle Trans…

Linear separation of connected dominating sets in graphs

Nina Chiarelli, Martin Milanič

A connected dominating set in a graph is a dominating set of vertices that induces a connected subgraph. Following analogous studies in the literature related to independent sets,…

Equistarable bipartite graphs

Endre Boros, Nina Chiarelli, Martin Milanič

Recently, Milanič and Trotignon introduced the class of equistarable graphs as graphs without isolated vertices admitting positive weights on the edges such that a subset of edges…

Total Domishold Graphs: a Generalization of Threshold Graphs, with Connections to Threshold Hypergraphs

Nina Chiarelli, Martin Milanic

A total dominating set in a graph is a set of vertices such that every vertex of the graph has a neighbor in the set. We introduce and study graphs that admit non-negative real wei…
