We study the problem of Covering Orthogonal Polygons with Rectangles. For polynomial-time algorithms, the best-known approximation factor is $O(\sqrt{\log n})$ when the input polygon may have holes [Kumar and Ramesh, STOC '99, SICOMP '03],…
A graph is unipolar if it can be partitioned into a clique and a disjoint union of cliques, and a graph is a generalised split graph if it or its complement is unipolar. A unipolar partition of a graph can be used to find efficiently the…
In the Exact Matching problem, we are given a graph whose edges are colored red or blue and the task is to decide for a given integer k, if there is a perfect matching with exactly k red edges. Since 1987 it is known that the Exact Matching…
