Parameterized computational complexity of Dodgson and Young elections
We show that the two NP-complete problems of Dodgson Score and Young Score have differing computational complexities when the winner is close to being a Condorcet winner. On the ...

Limits and Applications of Group Algebras for Parameterized Problems
The algebraic framework introduced in [Koutis, Proc. of the 35th ICALP 2008] reduces several combinatorial problems in parameterized complexity to the problem of detecting multili...

NP-completeness and FPT Results for Rectilinear Covering Problems
Abstract: This paper discusses three rectilinear (that is, axis-parallel) covering problems in d dimensions and their variants. The first problem is the Rectilinear Line Cover whe...

Reconstructing Evolution of Natural Languages: Complexity and Parameterized Algorithms
In a recent article, Nakhleh, Ringe and Warnow introduced perfect phylogenetic networks--a model of language evolution where languages do not evolve via clean speciation--and form...

Parallel Minimum Spanning Tree Heuristic for the steiner problem in graphs
Given an undirected graph with weights associated with its edges, the Steiner tree problem consists of finding a minimum weight subtree spanning a given subset of (terminal) nodes...
