We consider \textsc{Cliques or Trees Vertex Deletion}, which is a hybrid of two fundamental parameterized problems: \textsc{Cluster Vertex Deletion} and \textsc{Feedback Vertex Set}. In this problem, we are given an undirected graph $G$ and…

In the Subset Feedback Arc Set in Tournaments, Subset-FAST problem we are given as input a tournament $T$ with a vertex set $V(T)$ and an arc set $A(T)$, along with a terminal set $S \subseteq V(T)$, and an integer $ k$. The objective is to…

Let $H$ be a fixed graph. Given a graph $G$ and an integer $k$, the $H$-free edge modification problem asks whether it is possible to modify at most $k$ edges in $G$ to make it $H$-free. Sandeep and Sivadasan (IPEC 2015) asks whether the…

We investigate polynomial-time preprocessing for the problem of hitting forbidden minors in a graph, using the framework of kernelization. For a fixed finite set of connected graphs F, the F-Deletion problem is the following: given a graph…

The {\sc $k$-Leaf Out-Branching} problem is to find an out-branching (i.e. a rooted oriented spanning tree) with at least $k$ leaves in a given digraph. The problem has recently received much attention from the viewpoint of parameterized…

In the GEODETIC SET problem, an input is a (di)graph $G$ and integer $k$, and the objective is to decide whether there exists a vertex subset $S$ of size $k$ such that any vertex in $V(G)\setminus S$ lies on a shortest (directed) path…

We consider edge modification problems towards block and strictly chordal graphs, where one is given an undirected graph $G = (V,E)$ and an integer $k \in \mathbb{N}$ and seeks to edit (add or delete) at most $k$ edges from $G$ to obtain a…

In the {claw, diamond}-free edge deletion problem, we are given a graph $G$ and an integer $k>0$, the question is whether there are at most $k$ edges whose deletion results in a graph without claws and diamonds as induced graphs. Based on…

We study efficient preprocessing for the undirected Feedback Vertex Set problem, a fundamental problem in graph theory which asks for a minimum-sized vertex set whose removal yields an acyclic graph. More precisely, we aim to determine for…

A graph G=(V,E) is a 3-leaf power iff there exists a tree T whose leaves are V and such that (u,v) is an edge iff u and v are at distance at most 3 in T. The 3-leaf power graph edge modification problems, i.e. edition (also known as the…

We show a kernel of at most $13k$ vertices for the Planar Feedback Vertex Set problem restricted to planar graphs, i.e., a polynomial-time algorithm that transforms an input instance $(G,k)$ to an equivalent instance with at most $13k$…

The composition technique is a popular method for excluding polynomial-size problem kernels for NP-hard parameterized problems. We present a new technique exploiting triangle-based fractal structures for extending the range of applicability…

In the present paper, we study algorithmic questions for the arc-intersection graph of directed paths on a tree. Such graphs are known to be perfect (proved by Monma and Wei in 1986). We present faster algorithms than all previously known…

Let F be a finite set of graphs. In the F-Deletion problem, we are given an n-vertex graph G and an integer k as input, and asked whether at most k vertices can be deleted from G such that the resulting graph does not contain a graph from F…

The Odd Cycle Transversal problem (OCT) asks whether a given graph can be made bipartite (i.e., 2-colorable) by deleting at most l vertices. We study structural parameterizations of OCT with respect to their polynomial kernelizability,…

To leverage deep learning for image aesthetics assessment, one critical but unsolved issue is how to seamlessly incorporate the information of image aspect ratios to learn more robust models. In this paper, an adaptive fractional dilated…

We show that the k-Dominating Set problem is fixed parameter tractable (FPT) and has a polynomial kernel for any class of graphs that exclude K_{i,j} as a subgraph, for any fixed i, j >= 1. This strictly includes every class of graphs for…

In this work we study a classic generalization of the Vertex Cover (VC) problem, called the Component Order Connectivity (COC) problem. In COC, given an undirected graph $G$, integers $d \geq 1$ and $k$, the goal is to determine if there is…

Let F be a finite family of graphs. In the F-Deletion problem, one is given a graph G and an integer k, and the goal is to find k vertices whose deletion results in a graph with no minor from the family F. This may be regarded as a…

The pathwidth of a graph is a measure of how path-like the graph is. Given a graph G and an integer k, the problem of finding whether there exist at most k vertices in G whose deletion results in a graph of pathwidth at most one is NP-…
