The parameterized complexity of k-flip local search for SAT and MAX SAT
SAT and MAX SAT are among the most prominent problems for which local search algorithms have been successfully applied. A fundamental task for such an algorithm is to increase the...

On the Parameterized Complexity of Layered Graph Drawing
We consider graph drawings in which vertices are assigned to layers and edges are drawn as straight line-segments between vertices on adjacent layers. We prove that graphs admittin...

Constant Ratio Fixed-Parameter Approximation of the Edge Multicut Problem
Abstract. The input of the Edge Multicut problem consists of an undirected graph G and pairs of terminals {s1, t1}, . . . , {sm, tm}; the task is to remove a minimum set of edges s...

Computing pure strategy nash equilibria in compact symmetric games
We analyze the complexity of computing pure strategy Nash equilibria (PSNE) in symmetric games with a fixed number of actions. We restrict ourselves to “compact” representati...

Parameterized Proof Complexity
We propose a proof-theoretic approach for gaining evidence that certain parameterized problems are not fixedparameter tractable. We consider proofs that witness that a given prop...
