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 that $L^{r}(G)$ 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.

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 gra
ph~$H$ 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 $sgeq 1$.
An extension of the well-known Szeged index was introduced recently, named as weighted Szeged index ($textrm{sz}(G)$). This paper is devoted to characterizing the extremal trees and graphs of this new topological invariant. In particular, we proved t
hat the star is a tree having the maximal $textrm{sz}(G)$. Finding a tree with the minimal $textrm{sz}(G)$ is not an easy task to be done. Here, we present the minimal trees up to 25 vertices obtained by computer and describe the regularities which retain in them. Our preliminary computer tests suggest that a tree with the minimal $textrm{sz}(G)$ is also the connected graph of the given order that attains the minimal weighted Szeged index. Additionally, it is proven that among the bipartite connected graphs the complete balanced bipartite graph $K_{leftlfloor n/2rightrfloorleftlceil n/2 rightrceil}$ attains the maximal $textrm{sz}(G)$,. We believe that the $K_{leftlfloor n/2rightrfloorleftlceil n/2 rightrceil}$ is a connected graph of given order that attains the maximum $textrm{sz}(G)$.
textit{Voronoi game} is a geometric model of competitive facility location problem played between two players. Users are generally modeled as points uniformly distributed on a given underlying space. Each player chooses a set of points in the underly
ing space to place their facilities. Each user avails service from its nearest facility. Service zone of a facility consists of the set of users which are closer to it than any other facility. Payoff of each player is defined by the quantity of users served by all of its facilities. The objective of each player is to maximize their respective payoff. In this paper we consider the two players {it Voronoi game} where the underlying space is a road network modeled by a graph. In this framework we consider the problem of finding $k$ optimal facility locations of Player 2 given any placement of $m$ facilities by Player 1. Our main result is a dynamic programming based polynomial time algorithm for this problem on tree network. On the other hand, we show that the problem is strongly $mathcal{NP}$-complete for graphs. This proves that finding a winning strategy of P2 is $mathcal{NP}$-complete. Consequently, we design an $1-frac{1}{e}$ factor approximation algorithm, where $e approx 2.718$.
A bond of a graph $G$ is an inclusion-wise minimal disconnecting set of $G$, i.e., bonds are cut-sets that determine cuts $[S,Vsetminus S]$ of $G$ such that $G[S]$ and $G[Vsetminus S]$ are both connected. Given $s,tin V(G)$, an $st$-bond of $G$ is a
bond whose removal disconnects $s$ and $t$. Contrasting with the large number of studies related to maximum cuts, there are very few results regarding the largest bond of general graphs. In this paper, we aim to reduce this gap on the complexity of computing the largest bond and the largest $st$-bond of a graph. Although cuts and bonds are similar, we remark that computing the largest bond of a graph tends to be harder than computing its maximum cut. We show that {sc Largest Bond} remains NP-hard even for planar bipartite graphs, and it does not admit a constant-factor approximation algorithm, unless $P = NP$. We also show that {sc Largest Bond} and {sc Largest $st$-Bond} on graphs of clique-width $w$ cannot be solved in time $f(w)times n^{o(w)}$ unless the Exponential Time Hypothesis fails, but they can be solved in time $f(w)times n^{O(w)}$. In addition, we show that both problems are fixed-parameter tractable when parameterized by the size of the solution, but they do not admit polynomial kernels unless NP $subseteq$ coNP/poly.
We give a constant factor approximation algorithm for the asymmetric traveling salesman problem when the support graph of the solution of the Held-Karp linear programming relaxation has bounded orientable genus.
