In this paper we continue the study of locally checkable problems under the framework introduced by Bonomo-Braberman and Gonzalez in 2020, by focusing on graphs of bounded mim-width. We study which restrictions on a locally checkable…

We study the parameterized complexity of dominating sets in geometric intersection graphs. In one dimension, we investigate intersection graphs induced by translates of a fixed pattern Q that consists of a finite number of intervals and a…

By providing a new framework, we extend previous results on locally checkable problems in bounded treewidth graphs. As a consequence, we show how to solve, in polynomial time for bounded treewidth graphs, double Roman domination and Grundy…

We consider the {\em Capacitated Domination} problem, which models a service-requirement assignment scenario and is also a generalization of the well-known {\em Dominating Set} problem. In this problem, given a graph with three parameters…

A semitotal dominating set of a graph $G$ with no isolated vertex is a dominating set $D$ of $G$ such that every vertex in $D$ is within distance two of another vertex in $D$. The minimum size $\gamma_{t2}(G)$ of a semitotal dominating set…

A large number of NP-hard graph problems become polynomial-time solvable on graph classes where the mim-width is bounded and quickly computable. Hence, when solving such problems on special graph classes, it is helpful to know whether the…

We introduce a logic called distance neighborhood logic with acyclicity and connectivity constraints ($\mathsf{A\&C~DN}$ for short) which extends existential $\mathsf{MSO_1}$ with predicates for querying neighborhoods of vertex sets and for…

For a graph class $\mathcal{G}$, we define the $\mathcal{G}$-modular cardinality of a graph $G$ as the minimum size of a vertex partition of $G$ into modules that each induces a graph in $\mathcal{G}$. This generalizes other module-based…

We examine ordered graphs, defined as graphs with linearly ordered vertices, from the perspective of homomorphisms (and colorings) and their complexities. We demonstrate the corresponding computational and parameterized complexities, along…

In the last decade, algorithmic frameworks based on a structural graph parameter called mim-width have been developed to solve generally NP-hard problems. However, it is known that the frameworks cannot be applied to the Clique problem, and…

Boolean-width is a recently introduced graph parameter. Many problems are fixed parameter tractable when parametrized by boolean-width, for instance "Minimum Weighted Dominating Set" (MWDS) problem can be solved in $O^*(2^{3k})$ time given…

For fixed sets $\sigma, \rho$ of non-negative integers, the $(\sigma, \rho)$-domination framework introduced by Telle [Nord. J. Comput. 1994] captures many classical graph problems. For a graph $G$, a $(\sigma,\rho)$-set is a set $S$ of…
