The Satisfactory Partition problem consists in deciding if the set of vertices of a given undirected graph can be partitioned into two nonempty parts such that each vertex has at least as many neighbours in its part as in the other part.…
Many hard graph problems, such as Hamiltonian Cycle, become FPT when parameterized by treewidth, a parameter that is bounded only on sparse graphs. When parameterized by the more general parameter clique-width, Hamiltonian Cycle becomes…
For a constraint satisfaction problem (CSP), a robust satisfaction algorithm is one that outputs an assignment satisfying most of the constraints on instances that are near-satisfiable. It is known that the CSPs that admit efficient robust…
A prototypical graph problem is centered around a graph-theoretic property for a set of vertices and a solution to it is a set of vertices for which the desired property holds. The task is to decide whether, in the given graph, there exists…
We study the parameterized complexity of a broad class of problems called "local graph partitioning problems" that includes the classical fixed cardinality problems as max k-vertex cover, k-densest subgraph, etc. By developing a technique…
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 main result is that a polynomial kernel for $k$-Dominating Set on…
The constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) on a relational structure B is to decide, given a set of constraints on variables where the relations come from B, whether or not there is a assignment to the variables satisfying all of the…
This paper is concerned with the study of constrained statistical learning problems, the unconstrained version of which are at the core of virtually all of modern information processing. Accounting for constraints, however, is paramount to…
The constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) is a general problem central to computer science and artificial intelligence. Although the CSP is NP-hard in general, considerable effort has been spent on identifying tractable subclasses. The main…
Parameterized algorithms are a way to solve hard problems more efficiently, given that a specific parameter of the input is small. In this paper, we apply this idea to the field of answer set programming (ASP). To this end, we propose two…
Parameterized complexity seeks to use input structure to obtain faster algorithms for NP-hard problems. This has been most successful for graphs of low treewidth: Many problems admit fast algorithms relative to treewidth and many of them…
We study computational complexity of the class of distance-constrained graph labeling problems from the fixed parameter tractability point of view. The parameters studied are neighborhood diversity and clique width. We rephrase the distance…
We consider generalizations of parity polytopes whose variables, in addition to a parity constraint, satisfy certain ordering constraints. More precisely, the variable domain is partitioned into $k$ contiguous groups, and within each group,…
To reduce memory footprint and run-time latency, techniques such as neural network pruning and binarization have been explored separately. However, it is unclear how to combine the best of the two worlds to get extremely small and efficient…
We revisit two well-studied problems, Bounded Degree Vertex Deletion and Defective Coloring, where the input is a graph $G$ and a target degree $\Delta$ and we are asked either to edit or partition the graph so that the maximum degree…
A ternary Permutation-CSP is specified by a subset $\Pi$ of the symmetric group $\mathcal S_3$. An instance of such a problem consists of a set of variables $V$ and a multiset of constraints, which are ordered triples of distinct variables…
Clique-width is one of the graph complexity measures leading to polynomial special-case algorithms for generally NP-complete problems, e.g. graph colourability. The best two currently known algorithms for verifying c-colourability of graphs…
The problem of super-resolution is concerned with the reconstruction of temporally/spatially localized events (or spikes) from samples of their convolution with a low-pass filter. Distinct from prior works which exploit sparsity in…
The class $(r,2)$-CSP, or simply Max 2-CSP, consists of constraint satisfaction problems with at most two $r$-valued variables per clause. For instances with $n$ variables and $m$ binary clauses, we present an $O(n r^{5+19m/100})$-time…
Treewidth (tw) is an important parameter that, when bounded, yields tractability for many problems. For example, graph problems expressible in Monadic Second Order (MSO) logic and QUANTIFIED SAT or, more generally, QUANTIFIED CSP, are FPT…
