Bidimensionality theory was introduced by Demaine et al. [JACM 2005 ] as a framework to obtain algorithmic results for hard problems on minor closed graph classes. The theory has ...
The edge dominating set (EDS) and edge cover (EC) problems are classical graph covering problems in which one seeks a minimum cost collection of edges which covers the edges or ve...
An instance of the generalized partial cover problem consists of a ground set U and a family of subsets S 2U . Each element e U is associated with a profit p(e), whereas each su...
We study the partial vertex cover problem. Given a graph G = (V, E), a weight function w : V → R+ , and an integer s, our goal is to cover all but s edges, by picking a set of v...
We describe a framework for expressing the complexity of algorithms for FPT problems with two separate parameters k, m and with exponential time bounds O∗ (xk ym ) where x, y &g...
