Abstract. We describe some new, simple and apparently general methods for designing FPT algorithms, and illustrate how these can be used to obtain a signi cantly improved FPT algor...

The multiple weighted hitting set problem is to find a subset of nodes in a hypergraph that hits every hyperedge in at least m nodes. We extend the problem to a notion of hypergra...
We consider the concepts of a t-total vertex cover and a t-total edge cover (t 1), which generalize the notions of a vertex cover and an edge cover, respectively. A t-total verte...
Abstract. We present improved parameterized algorithms for the Feedback Vertex Set problem on both unweighted and weighted graphs. Both algorithms run in time O(5k kn2 ). The algor...

Abstract. We define the notion of diversity for families of finite functions, and express the limitations of a simple class of holographic algorithms in terms of limitations on d...
