Abstract

We study the Induced HH Partition problem from the parameterized complexity point of view. In the Induced HH Partition problem the task is to partition vertices of a graph GG into sets V1,V2,,VnV_1,V_2,\dots,V_n such that the graph HH is isomorphic to the subgraph of GG induced by each set ViV_i for i=1,2,,n.i = 1,2,\dots,n. The pattern graph HH is fixed. For the parametrization we consider three distinct structural parameters of the graph GG - namely the tree-width, the neighborhood diversity, and the modular-width. For the parametrization by the neighborhood diversity we obtain an FPT algorithm for every graph H.H. For the parametrization by the tree-width we obtain an FPT algorithm for every connected graph H.H. Finally, for the parametrization by the modular-width we derive an FPT algorithm for every prime graph H.H.
