What is the fastest algorithm for computing exact network reliability?
In the network reliability problem, we are given an undirected graph $G$ on $n$ vertices and a parameter $p\in (0,1)$, and are tasked with determining the probability that $G$ becomes disconnected (i....

Minimum vertex-separators under edge addition
I am trying to prove the following claim.
Let $T$ be a minimum $st$-separator in an undirected graph $G$, and let $x \in T$.
Let $S\neq T$ be a minimal $st$-separator (i.e., not necessarily minimum), ...

Finding cliques in a big graph
I would like to find (all) cliques in a given graph with 8,568 vertices and 12,726,708 edges. The vertex with the lowes degree has 2000, the vertext with the highest degree has 4007.
The cliques ...

Fastest Known Algorithm to Count Acyclic Orientations in a Graph
Given an undirected graph $G$, an acyclic orientation of $G$ is choice of orientation for each edge of $G$ (turning each edge into an arc) such that the resulting directed graph has no directed cycles....

Fastest Known Algorithm for $k$-Dimensional Matching and $k$-Exact Cover
Given a $k$-uniform hypergraph $G$ (i.e., each edge of $G$ contains precisely $k$ vertices) on $n$ vertices, the $k$-Exact Cover problem is the task of deciding if there exists $n/k$ edges in $G$ ...

What is the fastest known algorithm for computing a 1.99-approximation of Vertex Cover?
It is known that computing $(\sqrt 2 -\epsilon)$-approximation for VC is NP-hard and that UGC implies that even a $(2 -\epsilon)$-approximation is hard.
There is also a parameterized algorithm for ...

Approximation algorithms for Metric TSP
It is known that metric TSP can be approximated within $1.5$ and cannot be approximated better than $123\over 122$ in polynomial time.
Is anything known about finding approximation solutions in ...

Subset Numbering
Fix $k\ge5$.
For any big enough $n$, we would like to label all subsets of $\{1..n\}$ of size exactly $n/k$ by positive integers from $\{1...T\}$.
We would like this labelling to satisfy the following ...
