We study the NP-complete TARGET SET SELECTION (TSS) problem occurring in social network analysis. Complementing results on its approximability and extending results for its restric...
Many NP-hard problems can be solved efficiently when the input is restricted to graphs of bounded tree-width or clique-width. In particular, by the celebrated result of Courcelle,...

Abstract. Given an undirected graph G and an integer k ≥ 0, the NPhard 2-Layer Planarization problem asks whether G can be transformed into a forest of caterpillar trees by remov...
This paper is concerned with the optimal control of linear discrete-time systems, which are subject to unknown but bounded state disturbances and mixed constraints on the state an...

We introduce a new technique for proving kernelization lower bounds, called cross-composition. A classical problem L cross-composes into a parameterized problem Q if an instance o...
