Two-chordless cycle extraction from a failed comparability graph recognition
I have implemented a comparability graph recognition algorithm from M.C. Golumbic's "Algorithmic graph theory and perfect graphs" book. It is hinted in Fekete, Schepers, and van der Veen's "Exact ...

Developing a meshfree contouring algorithm
I would like to find the contours of a scalar function $u(x,y)$ available as a discrete set of function values $u_i = u(x_i,y_i)$ over a scattered set of points $(x_i,y_i), i=1,...,N$.
In my case, the ...

Absorbing BC's / PML on a graph
The wave equation,
$$\ddot{u} = c^2 \Delta u,$$
can be generalized to abstract graphs by using the negative graph Laplacian in place of the physical Laplacian.
Is there a graph-theoretic analog of ...

Updating factorization of Laplacian (add/remove edges)
For a graph $G=(V,E)$, recall that the unweighted Laplacian is $L:=D^\top D$, where $D\in\{-1,0,1\}^{|E|\times|V|}$ is the graph "gradient" operator that subtracts adjacent vertex values onto edges.

Is there some algorithm to find the shortest path in the context of genetics and breeding?
In genetics and breeding, we typically have two parent genotype (may or may not be the same) which can produce a set of offspring with certain probability (assuming simple Mendelian inheritance).
I ...

Alternative to two “for” loops in finding best neighborhoods for TSP?
I am trying to solve Travelling Salesman Problems using tabu search. I have been able to successfully find "near enough" optimal solutions (as well as one optimal, yay!).
For the moment I am using ...
