The Minimum k-way Cut of Bounded Size is Fixed-Parameter Tractable

TL;DR: This work considers the minimum-k-way cut problem for unweighted undirected graphs with a size bound on the number of cut edges allowed, and shows that this problem is fixed-parameter tractable (FPT) with the standard parameterization in terms of the solution size $s$.

A Deterministic Algorithm for Finding All Minimum $k$-Way Cuts

TL;DR: The algorithm is a divide-and-conquer method based on a procedure that reduces an instance of the minimum $k$-way cut problem to $O(n^{2k-5})$ instances of theminimum $(\lfloor (k+\sqrt{k})/2\rfloor+1)$- way cut problem, and can be implemented to run in time.

Parallel Algorithms for Series Parallel Graphs

TL;DR: With the same time and processor resources, a tree-decomposition of width at most two can be built of a given series parallel graph, and hence, very efficient parallel algorithms can be found for a large number of graph problems on series parallel graphs, including many well known problems, e.g., all problems that can be stated in monadic second order logic.

Applications of a Planar Separator Theorem

TL;DR: Any n-vertex planar graph has the property that it can be divided into components of roughly equal size by removing only O(√n) vertices, and this separator theorem in combination with a divide-and-conquer strategy leads to many new complexity results for planar graphs problems.

Arboricity and subgraph listing algorithms

TL;DR: A new simple strategy into edge-searching of a graph, which is useful to the various subgraph listing problems, is introduced, and an upper bound on $a(G)$ is established for a graph $G:a (G) \leqq \lceil (2m + n)^{1/2} \rceil $, where n is the number of vertices in G.
