Kernelization of packing problems
Kernelization algorithms are polynomial-time reductions from a problem to itself that guarantee their output to have a size not exceeding some bound. For example, d-Set Matching f...

A Tight Analysis of the Maximal Matching Heuristic
We study the worst-case performance of the maximal matching heuristic applied to the Minimum Vertex Cover and Minimum Maximal Matching problems, through a careful analysis of tigh...

Bidimensional Parameters and Local Treewidth
For several graph-theoretic parameters such as vertex cover and dominating set, it is known that if their sizes are bounded by k then the treewidth of the graph is bounded by some ...

An improved constant-time approximation algorithm for maximum~matchings
This paper studies constant-time approximation algorithms for problems on degree-bounded graphs. Let n and d be the number of vertices and the degree bound, respectively. This pap...

Solving Sparse Random Instances of Max Cut and Max 2-CSP in Linear Expected Time
Abstract. We show that a maximum cut of a random graph below the giantcomponent threshold can be found in linear space and linear expected time by a simple algorithm. In fact, the ...
