Let $M=(m_{ij})$ be a symmetric matrix of order $n$ whose elements lie in an arbitrary field $mathbb{F}$, and let $G$ be the graph with vertex set ${1,ldots,n}$ such that distinct vertices $i$ and $j$ are adjacent if and only if $m_{ij} eq 0$. We introduce a dynamic programming algorithm that finds a diagonal matrix that is congruent to $M$. If $G$ is given with a tree decomposition $mathcal{T}$ of width $k$, then this can be done in time $O(k|mathcal{T}| + k^2 n)$, where $|mathcal{T}|$ denotes the number of nodes in $mathcal{T}$. Among other things, this allows one to compute the determinant, the rank and the inertia of a symmetric matrix in time $O(k|mathcal{T}| + k^2 n)$.

We give polynomial-time approximation schemes for monotone maximization problems expressible in terms of distances (up to a fixed upper bound) and efficiently solvable in graphs of bounded treewidth. These schemes apply in all fractionally treewidth- fragile graph classes, a property that is true for many natural graph classes with sublinear separators. We also provide quasipolynomial-time approximation schemes for these problems in all classes with sublinear separators.
We initiate the study of coresets for clustering in graph metrics, i.e., the shortest-path metric of edge-weighted graphs. Such clustering problems are essential to data analysis and used for example in road networks and data visualization. A coreset is a compact summary of the data that approximately preserves the clustering objective for every possible center set, and it offers significant efficiency improvements in terms of running time, storage, and communication, including in streaming and distributed settings. Our main result is a near-linear time construction of a coreset for k-Median in a general graph $G$, with size $O_{epsilon, k}(mathrm{tw}(G))$ where $mathrm{tw}(G)$ is the treewidth of $G$, and we complement the construction with a nearly-tight size lower bound. The construction is based on the framework of Feldman and Langberg [STOC 2011], and our main technical contribution, as required by this framework, is a uniform bound of $O(mathrm{tw}(G))$ on the shattering dimension under any point weights. We validate our coreset on real-world road networks, and our scalable algorithm constructs tiny coresets with high accuracy, which translates to a massive speedup of existing approximation algorithms such as local search for graph k-Median.
Understanding the structure of minor-free metrics, namely shortest path metrics obtained over a weighted graph excluding a fixed minor, has been an important research direction since the fundamental work of Robertson and Seymour. A fundamental idea t hat helps both to understand the structural properties of these metrics and lead to strong algorithmic results is to construct a small-complexity graph that approximately preserves distances between pairs of points of the metric. We show the two following structural results for minor-free metrics: 1. Construction of a light subset spanner. Given a subset of vertices called terminals, and $epsilon$, in polynomial time we construct a subgraph that preserves all pairwise distances between terminals up to a multiplicative $1+epsilon$ factor, of total weight at most $O_{epsilon}(1)$ times the weight of the minimal Steiner tree spanning the terminals. 2. Construction of a stochastic metric embedding into low treewidth graphs with expected additive distortion $epsilon D$. Namely, given a minor free graph $G=(V,E,w)$ of diameter $D$, and parameter $epsilon$, we construct a distribution $mathcal{D}$ over dominating metric embeddings into treewidth-$O_{epsilon}(log n)$ graphs such that the additive distortion is at most $epsilon D$. One of our important technical contributions is a novel framework that allows us to reduce emph{both problems} to problems on simpler graphs of bounded diameter. Our results have the following algorithmic consequences: (1) the first efficient approximation scheme for subset TSP in minor-free metrics; (2) the first approximation scheme for vehicle routing with bounded capacity in minor-free metrics; (3) the first efficient approximation scheme for vehicle routing with bounded capacity on bounded genus metrics.
We develop an approximation algorithm for the partition function of the ferromagnetic Potts model on graphs with a small-set expansion condition, and as a step in the argument we give a graph partitioning algorithm with expansion and minimum degree c onditions on the subgraphs induced by each part. These results extend previous work of Jenssen, Keevash, and Perkins (2019) on the Potts model and related problems in expander graphs, and of Oveis Gharan and Trevisan (2014) on partitioning into expanders.
Tuza (1981) conjectured that the size $tau(G)$ of a minimum set of edges that intersects every triangle of a graph $G$ is at most twice the size $ u(G)$ of a maximum set of edge-disjoint triangles of $G$. In this paper we present three results regard ing Tuzas Conjecture. We verify it for graphs with treewidth at most $6$; we show that $tau(G)leq frac{3}{2}, u(G)$ for every planar triangulation $G$ different from $K_4$; and that $tau(G)leqfrac{9}{5}, u(G) + frac{1}{5}$ if $G$ is a maximal graph with treewidth 3. Our first result strengthens a result of Tuza, implying that $tau(G) leq 2, u(G)$ for every $K_8$-free chordal graph $G$.
