We study the minimum \emph{interval deletion} problem, which asks for the removal of a set of at most $k$ vertices to make a graph of $n$ vertices into an interval graph. We present a parameterized algorithm of runtime $10^k \cdot n^{O(1)}$…

In this paper, we present an algorithm for computing a feedback vertex set of a unit disk graph of size $k$, if it exists, which runs in time $2^{O(\sqrt{k})}(n+m)$, where $n$ and $m$ denote the numbers of vertices and edges, respectively.…

Given a graph $G$ with source and destination vertices $s,t\in V(G)$ respectively, \textsc{Tracking Paths} asks for a minimum set of vertices $T\subseteq V(G)$, such that the sequence of vertices encountered in each simple path from $s$ to…

In this paper we present the first dynamic algorithms for the problem of Feedback Arc Set in Tournaments (FAST) and the problem of Feedback Vertex Set in Tournaments (FVST). Our algorithms maintain a dynamic tournament on n vertices altered…

We introduce a general method for obtaining fixed-parameter algorithms for problems about finding paths in undirected graphs, where the length of the path could be unbounded in the parameter. The first application of our method is as…

Fixed parameter tractable (FPT) algorithms run in time f(p(x)) poly(|x|), where f is an arbitrary function of some parameter p of the input x and poly is some polynomial function. Treewidth, branchwidth, cliquewidth, NLC-width, rankwidth,…

{\sc Directed Feedback Vertex Set (DFVS)} is a fundamental computational problem that has received extensive attention in parameterized complexity. In this paper, we initiate the study of a wide generalization, the {\sc ${\cal H}$-free SCC…

The classical, linear-time solvable Feedback Edge Set problem is concerned with finding a minimum number of edges intersecting all cycles in a (static, unweighted) graph. We provide a first study of this problem in the setting of temporal…

In the Hedge Cut problem, the edges of a graph are partitioned into groups called hedges, and the question is what is the minimum number of hedges to delete to disconnect the graph. Ghaffari, Karger, and Panigrahi [SODA 2017] showed that…

In the weighted partial vertex cover problem (WPVC), we are given a graph $G=(V,E)$, cost function $c:V\rightarrow N$, profit function $p:E\rightarrow N$, and positive integers $R$ and $L$. The goal is to check whether there is a subset…

In this paper, we study fundamental parameterized problems such as $k$-Path/Cycle, Vertex Cover, Triangle Hitting Set, Feedback Vertex Set, and Cycle Packing for dynamic unit disk graphs. Given a vertex set $V$ changing dynamically under…

The firefighter problem is defined as below. A fire initially breaks out at a vertex r on a graph G. In each step, a firefighter chooses to protect one vertex, which is not yet burnt. And the fire spreads out to its unprotected neighboring…

Disjunctive Answer Set Programming (ASP) is a powerful declarative programming paradigm whose main decision problems are located on the second level of the polynomial hierarchy. Identifying tractable fragments and developing efficient…

Given a static vertex-selection problem (e.g. independent set, dominating set) on a graph, we can define a corresponding temporally satisfying reconfiguration problem on a temporal graph which asks for a sequence of solutions to the…

We study the parameterized complexity of evaluating Ontology Mediated Queries (OMQs) based on Guarded TGDs (GTGDs) and Unions of Conjunctive Queries (UCQs), in the case where relational symbols have unrestricted arity and where the…

In this paper we investigate the parameterized complexity of the Maximum-Duo Preservation String Mapping Problem, the complementary of the Minimum Common String Partition Problem. We show that this problem is fixed-parameter tractable when…

We study the classical problem of computing geometric thickness, i.e., finding a straight-line drawing of an input graph and a partition of its edges into as few parts as possible so that each part is crossing-free. Since the problem is…

A {\em bipartite tournament} is a directed graph $T:=(A \cup B, E)$ such that every pair of vertices $(a,b), a\in A,b\in B$ are connected by an arc, and no arc connects two vertices of $A$ or two vertices of $B$. A {\em feedback vertex set}…

A directed odd cycle transversal of a directed graph (digraph) $D$ is a vertex set $S$ that intersects every odd directed cycle of $D$. In the Directed Odd Cycle Transversal (DOCT) problem, the input consists of a digraph $D$ and an integer…

In the DELETION TO INDUCED MATCHING problem, we are given a graph $G$ on $n$ vertices, $m$ edges and a non-negative integer $k$ and asks whether there exists a set of vertices $S \subseteq V(G) $ such that $|S|\le k$ and the size of any…
