Treewidth Reduction for Constrained Separation and Bipartization Problems
We present a method for reducing the treewidth of a graph while preserving all the minimal s−t separators. This technique turns out to be very useful in the design of parameteriz...

Finding Independent Sets in Unions of Perfect Graphs
ABSTRACT. The maximum independent set problem (MAXIS) on general graphs is known to be NPhard to approximate within a factor of n1-, for any > 0. However, there are many "...

Algorithmic Lower Bounds for Problems Parameterized by Clique-width
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,...

Parameterizing Cut Sets in a Graph by the Number of Their Components
For a connected graph G = (V, E), a subset U ⊆ V is called a k-cut if U disconnects G, and the subgraph induced by U contains exactly k (≥ 1) components. More specifically, a ...

Approximating minimum independent dominating sets in wireless networks
We present the first polynomial-time approximation scheme (PTAS) for the Minimum Independent Dominating Set problem in graphs of polynomially bounded growth. Graphs of bounded gr...
