Approximability and Fixed-Parameter Tractability for the Exemplar Genomic Distance Problems
In this paper, we present a survey of the approximability and fixed-parameter tractability results for some Exemplar Genomic Distance problems. We mainly focus on three problems: ...

The zero exemplar distance problem
Given two genomes with duplicate genes, Zero Exemplar Distance is the problem of deciding whether the two genomes can be reduced to the same genome without duplicate genes by delet...

On the inapproximability of the exemplar conserved interval distance problem of genomes
In this paper we present two main results about the inapproximability of the exemplar conserved interval distance problem of genomes. First, we prove that it is NP-complete to deci...

Non-breaking Similarity of Genomes with Gene Repetitions
Abstract. In this paper we define a new similarity measure, the nonbreaking similarity, which is the complement of the famous breakpoint distance between genomes (in general, betw...

Structural Properties and Tractability Results for Linear Synteny
The syntenic dista nce between two species is the minimum number of fusions, fissions, and translocations required to transform one genome into the other. The linear syntenic dis...
