Threshold Dominating Sets and an Improved Characterization of W[2]
The Threshold Dominating Set problem is that of determining for a graph G = (V, E) whether there is a subset V ⊆ V of size k, such that for each vertex v ∈ V there are at leas...

Parameterized Complexity Classes under Logical Reductions
Abstract. The parameterized complexity classes of the W -hierarchy are usually defined as the problems reducible to certain natural complete problems by means of fixed-parameter ...

Determining the Winner of a Dodgson Election is Hard
Computing the Dodgson Score of a candidate in an election is a hard computational problem, which has been analyzed using classical and parameterized analysis. In this paper we reso...

Tight Lower Bounds for Certain Parameterized NP-Hard Problems
Based on the framework of parameterized complexity theory, we derive tight lower bounds on the computational complexity for a number of well-known NP-hard problems. We start by pr...
