The Directed Maximum Leaf Out-Branching problem is to find an out-branching (i.e. a rooted oriented spanning tree) in a given digraph with the maximum number of leaves. In this pap...

A subgraph T of a digraph D is an out-branching if T is an oriented spanning tree with only one vertex of in-degree zero (called the root). The vertices of T of out-degree zero ar...

Abstract. Evolutionary algorithms have been shown to be very successful for a wide range of NP-hard combinatorial optimization problems. We investigate the NP-hard problem of compu...

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...
