Intractability of Clique-Width Parameterizations
We show that Edge Dominating Set, Hamiltonian Cycle, and Graph Coloring are W[1]-hard parameterized by clique-width. It was an open problem, explicitly mentioned in several papers,...

Parameterized Complexity of Even/Odd Subgraph Problems
We study the parameterized complexity of the problems of determining whether a graph contains a k-edge subgraph (k-vertex induced subgraph) that is a -graph for -graphs being one ...

Satisfiability of Acyclic and Almost Acyclic CNF Formulas
We study the propositional satisfiability problem (SAT) on classes of CNF formulas (formulas in Conjunctive Normal Form) that obey certain structural restrictions in terms of thei...

The Complexity of Polynomial-Time Approximation
In 1996, Khanna and Motwani [KM96] proposed three logic-based optimization problems constrained by planar structure, and offered the hypothesis that these putatively fundamental ...

The complexity of irredundant sets parameterized by size
An irredundant set of vertices V V in a graph G = (V; E) has the property that for every vertex u V ; N[V - {u}] is a proper subset of N[V ]. We investigate the parameterized co...

Parameterized complexity of the induced subgraph problem in directed graphs
In this paper, we consider the parameterized complexity of the following problem: Given a hereditary property P on digraphs, an input digraph D and a positive integer k, does D ha...

Parameterized counting problems
Parameterized complexity has, so far, been largely con ned to consideration of computational problems as decision or search problems. However, it is becoming evident that the param...

Parameterizing the winner determination problem for combinatorial auctions
Combinatorial auctions have been studied by the multiagent systems community for some time, since these auctions are an effective mechanism for resource allocation when agents are...

Some New Directions and Questions in Parameterized Complexity
Recently there have been some new initiatives in the field of parameterized complexity. In this paper, we will report on some of these, concentrating on some open questions, and al...

Parameterized Complexity of the Clique Partition Problem
The problem of deciding whether the edge-set of a given graph can be partitioned into at most k cliques is well known to be NP-complete. In this paper we investigate this problem ...
