A survey on the parameterized complexity of reconfiguration problems

N Bousquet, AE Mouawad, N Nishimura… - Computer Science …, 2024 - Elsevier
A graph vertex-subset problem defines which subsets of the vertices of an input graph are
feasible solutions. We view a feasible solution as a set of tokens placed on the vertices of …

Bidimensionality and kernels

FV Fomin, D Lokshtanov, S Saurabh… - Proceedings of the twenty …, 2010 - SIAM
Bidimensionality theory appears to be a powerful framework in the development of meta-
algorithmic techniques. It was introduced by Demaine et al.[J. ACM 2005] as a tool to obtain …

Twin-width and polynomial kernels

É Bonnet, EJ Kim, A Reinald, S Thomassé, R Watrigant - Algorithmica, 2022 - Springer
We study the existence of polynomial kernels, for parameterized problems without a
polynomial kernel on general graphs, when restricted to graphs of bounded twin-width. Our …

N Bousquet, AE Mouawad, N Nishimura… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2022 - arxiv.org
A graph vertex-subset problem defines which subsets of the vertices of an input graph are
feasible solutions. We view a feasible solution as a set of tokens placed on the vertices of …

Neighborhood complexity and kernelization for nowhere dense classes of graphs

K Eickmeyer, AC Giannopoulou, S Kreutzer… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2016 - arxiv.org
We prove that whenever $ G $ is a graph from a nowhere dense graph class $\mathcal {C}
$, and $ A $ is a subset of vertices of $ G $, then the number of subsets of $ A $ that are …

[HTML][HTML] Kernelization using structural parameters on sparse graph classes

We prove that graph problems with finite integer index have linear kernels on graphs of
bounded expansion when parameterized by the size of a modulator to constant-treedepth …

[HTML][HTML] On the generalised colouring numbers of graphs that exclude a fixed minor

J Van Den Heuvel, PO de Mendez, D Quiroz… - European Journal of …, 2017 - Elsevier
The generalised colouring numbers col r (G) and wcol r (G) were introduced by Kierstead
and Yang as a generalisation of the usual colouring number, and have since then found …

Structural sparsity

J Nešetřil, PO de Mendez - Russian Mathematical Surveys, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
The notion of structural sparsity is discussed, and its relation to thenowhere
dense/somewhere dense'dichotomy introduced by the authors for classes of graphs is …

Polynomial kernels and wideness properties of nowhere dense graph classes

S Kreutzer, R Rabinovich, S Siebertz - ACM Transactions on Algorithms …, 2018 - dl.acm.org
Nowhere dense classes of graphs [21, 22] are very general classes of uniformly sparse
graphs with several seemingly unrelated characterisations. From an algorithmic perspective …

D Lokshtanov, AE Mouawad, F Panolan… - Journal of Computer and …, 2018 - Elsevier
A vertex-subset graph problem Q defines which subsets of the vertices of an input graph are
feasible solutions. A reconfiguration variant of a vertex-subset problem asks, given two …
