We give a strongly polynomial-time algorithm for integer linear programs defined by integer coefficient matrices whose subdeterminants are bounded by a constant and that contain at most two nonzero entries in each row. The core of our…

We consider box-constrained integer programs with objective $g(Wx) + c^T x$, where $g$ is a "complicated" function with an $m$ dimensional domain. Here we assume we have $n \gg m$ variables and that $W \in \mathbb Z^{m \times n}$ is an…

Given a graph G, a matching is a subset of edges of G that do not share an endpoint. A matching M is uniquely restricted if the subgraph induced by the endpoints of the edges of M has exactly one perfect matching. Given a graph G and a…

Many graph problems were first shown to be fixed-parameter tractable using the results of Robertson and Seymour on graph minors. We show that the combination of finite, computable, obstruction sets and efficient order tests is not just one…
