This paper considers the question of the in uence of a coalition of vertices, seeking to gain control (or majority) in local neighborhoods in a general graph. Say that a vertex v is controlled by the coalition M if the majority of its neighbors are from M. We ask how many vertices (as a function of jMj) can M control in this fashion. Upper and...

A general instance of a Degree-Constrained Subgraph problem consists of an edge-weighted or vertex-weighted graph G and the objective is to find an optimal weighted subgraph, subject to certain degree constraints on the vertices of the subgraph. This paper considers three natural Degree-Constrained Subgraph problems and studies their behavior...

This papers deals with the question of the influence of a monopoly of vertices, seeking to gain the majority in local neighborhoods in a graph. Say that a vertex v is r-controlled by a set of vertices M if the majority of its neighbors at distance r are from M. We ask how large must M be in order to r-monopolize the graph, namely, r-control...

Motivated by Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) in telecommunication networks, we investigate the problem of designing a directed virtual topology on a directed physical topology, which consists in finding a set of directed virtual paths (VPs) satisfying some constraints in terms of load (the number of VPs sharing a physical link) and hop count...

In this article we provide hardness results and approximation algorithms for the following three natural degree-constrained subgraph problems, which take as input an undirected graph G=(V,E). Let d>=2 be a fixed integer. The Maximumd-degree-bounded Connected Subgraph (MDBCS"d) problem takes as additional input a weight function @w:E->R^+, and...
