Enumeration kernelization for parameterized enumeration problems was defined by Creignou et al. [Theory Comput. Syst. 2017] and was later refined by Golovach et al. [J. Comput. Syst. Sci. 2022, STACS 2021] to polynomial-delay enumeration…

The question to enumerate all inclusion-minimal connected dominating sets in a graph of order $n$ in time significantly less than $2^n$ is an open question that was asked in many places. We answer this question affirmatively, by providing…

An output-polynomial algorithm for the listing of minimal dominating sets in graphs is a challenging open problem and is known to be equivalent to the well-known Transversal problem which asks for an output-polynomial algorithm for listing…

This paper studies the problem of enumerating all maximal collinear subsets of size at least three in a given set of $n$ points. An algorithm for this problem, besides solving degeneracy testing and the exact fitting problem, can also help…

We consider a set system $(V, {\mathcal C}\subseteq 2^V)$ on a finite set $V$ of elements, where we call a set $C\in {\mathcal C}$ a component. We assume that two oracles $\mathrm{L}_1$ and $\mathrm{L}_2$ are available, where given two…

A matching of a graph is a subset of edges no two of which share a common vertex, and a maximum matching is a matching of maximum cardinality. In a $b$-matching every vertex $v$ has an associated bound $b_v$, and a maximum $b$-matching is a…

In this paper, as a new notion, we define a transitive system to be a set system $(V, {\mathcal C}\subseteq 2^V)$ on a finite set $V$ of elements such that every three sets $X,Y,Z\in{\mathcal C}$ with $Z\subseteq X\cap Y$ implies $X\cup…

Several papers have achieved time $O(\sqrt n m)$ for cardinality matching, starting from first principles. This results in a long derivation. We simplify the task by employing well-known concepts for maximum weight matching. We use Edmonds'…
