We study the computational complexity of two well-known graph transversal problems, namely Subset Feedback Vertex Set and Subset Odd Cycle Transversal, by restricting the input to $H$-free graphs, that is, to graphs that do not contain some fixed graph~$H$ as an induced subgraph. By combining known and new results, we determine the computational complexity of both problems on $H$-free graphs for every graph $H$ except when $H=sP_1+P_4$ for some $sgeq 1$. As part of our approach, we introduce the Subset Vertex Cover problem and prove that it is polynomial-time solvable for $(sP_1+P_4)$-free graphs for every $sgeq 1$.

A forbidden transition graph is a graph defined together with a set of permitted transitions i.e. unordered pair of adjacent edges that one may use consecutively in a walk in the graph. In this paper, we look for the smallest set of transitions neede d to be able to go from any vertex of the given graph to any other. We prove that this problem is NP-hard and study approximation algorithms. We develop theoretical tools that help to study this problem.
The $r$-th iterated line graph $L^{r}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is defined by: (i) $L^{0}(G) = G$ and (ii) $L^{r}(G) = L(L^{(r- 1)}(G))$ for $r > 0$, where $L(G)$ denotes the line graph of $G$. The Hamiltonian Index $h(G)$ of $G$ is the smallest $r$ such th at $L^{r}(G)$ has a Hamiltonian cycle. Checking if $h(G) = k$ is NP-hard for any fixed integer $k geq 0$ even for subcubic graphs $G$. We study the parameterized complexity of this problem with the parameter treewidth, $tw(G)$, and show that we can find $h(G)$ in time $O*((1 + 2^{(omega + 3)})^{tw(G)})$ where $omega$ is the matrix multiplication exponent and the $O*$ notation hides polynomial factors in input size. The NP-hard Eulerian Steiner Subgraph problem takes as input a graph $G$ and a specified subset $K$ of terminal vertices of $G$ and asks if $G$ has an Eulerian (that is: connected, and with all vertices of even degree.) subgraph $H$ containing all the terminals. A second result (and a key ingredient of our algorithm for finding $h(G)$) in this work is an algorithm which solves Eulerian Steiner Subgraph in $O*((1 + 2^{(omega + 3)})^{tw(G)})$ time.
Best match graphs (BMGs) are vertex-colored digraphs that naturally arise in mathematical phylogenetics to formalize the notion of evolutionary closest genes w.r.t. an a priori unknown phylogenetic tree. BMGs are explained by unique least resolved tr ees. We prove that the property of a rooted, leaf-colored tree to be least resolved for some BMG is preserved by the contraction of inner edges. For the special case of two-colored BMGs, this leads to a characterization of the least resolved trees (LRTs) of binary-explainable trees and a simple, polynomial-time algorithm for the minimum cardinality completion of the arc set of a BMG to reach a BMG that can be explained by a binary tree.
For every constant $d geq 3$ and $epsilon > 0$, we give a deterministic $mathrm{poly}(n)$-time algorithm that outputs a $d$-regular graph on $Theta(n)$ vertices that is $epsilon$-near-Ramanujan; i.e., its eigenvalues are bounded in magnitude by $2sqr t{d-1} + epsilon$ (excluding the single trivial eigenvalue of~$d$).
A graph $G = (V,E)$ is a double-threshold graph if there exist a vertex-weight function $w colon V to mathbb{R}$ and two real numbers $mathtt{lb}, mathtt{ub} in mathbb{R}$ such that $uv in E$ if and only if $mathtt{lb} le mathtt{w}(u) + mathtt{w}(v) le mathtt{ub}$. In the literature, those graphs are studied as the pairwise compatibility graphs that have stars as their underlying trees. We give a new characterization of double-threshold graphs, which gives connections to bipartite permutation graphs. Using the new characterization, we present a linear-time algorithm for recognizing double-threshold graphs. Prior to our work, the fastest known algorithm by Xiao and Nagamochi [COCOON 2018] ran in $O(n^6)$ time, where $n$ is the number of vertices.
