Kernelization for Cycle Transversal Problems
Abstract. We present new kernelization results for the s-cycle transversal problem for s > 3. In particular, we show a 6k2 kernel for 4-cycle transversal and a O(ks−1 ) kernel...

Hitting forbidden minors: Approximation and Kernelization
We study a general class of problems called F -Deletion problems. In an F -Deletion problem, we are asked whether a subset of at most k vertices can be deleted from a graph G such...

(Meta) Kernelization
Polynomial time preprocessing to reduce instance size is one of the most commonly deployed heuristics to tackle computationally hard problems. In a parameterized problem, every in...

Subgraph Isomorphism in Planar Graphs and Related Problems
We solve the subgraph isomorphism problem in planar graphs in linear time, for any pattern of constant size. Our results are based on a technique of partitioning the planar graph ...
