A dominating set $S$ of graph $G$ is called an $r$-grouped dominating set if $S$ can be partitioned into $S_1,S_2,\ldots,S_k$ such that the size of each unit $S_i$ is $r$ and the subgraph of $G$ induced by $S_i$ is connected. The concept of…
Given a digraph $G$, a set $X\subseteq V(G)$ is said to be absorbing set (resp. dominating set) if every vertex in the graph is either in $X$ or is an in-neighbour (resp. out-neighbour) of a vertex in $X$. A set $S\subseteq V(G)$ is said to…
Kernelization studies polynomial-time preprocessing algorithms. Over the last 20 years, the most celebrated positive results of the field have been linear kernels for classical NP-hard graph problems on sparse graph classes. In this paper,…
We consider a generic algorithmic paradigm that we call progressive exploration, which can be used to develop simple and efficient parameterized graph algorithms. We identify two model-theoretic properties that lead to efficient progressive…
The class of graph deletion problems has been extensively studied in theoretical computer science, particularly in the field of parameterized complexity. Recently, a new notion of graph deletion problems was introduced, called deletion to…
We study the parameterized complexity of domination-type problems. (sigma,rho)-domination is a general and unifying framework introduced by Telle: a set D of vertices of a graph G is (sigma,rho)-dominating if for any v in D, |N(v)\cap D| in…
The technique of kernelization consists in extracting, from an instance of a problem, an essentially equivalent instance whose size is bounded in a parameter k. Besides being the basis for efficient param-eterized algorithms, this method…
In the Red-Blue Dominating Set problem, we are given a bipartite graph $G = (V_B \cup V_R,E)$ and an integer $k$, and asked whether $G$ has a subset $D \subseteq V_B$ of at most $k$ "blue" vertices such that each "red" vertex from $V_R$ is…
A Ranking r-Constraint Satisfaction Problem (ranking r-CSP) consists of a ground set of vertices V, an arity r >= 2, a parameter k and a constraint system c, where c is a function which maps rankings of r-sized subsets of V to {0,1}. The…
The most efficient algorithms for finding maximum independent sets in both theory and practice use reduction rules to obtain a much smaller problem instance called a kernel. The kernel can then be solved quickly using exact or heuristic…
In statistical learning, many problem formulations have been proposed so far, such as multi-class learning, complementarily labeled learning, multi-label learning, multi-task learning, which provide theoretical models for various real-world…
Given a graph $G$, an integer $k\geq 0$, and a non-negative integral function $f:V(G) \rightarrow \mathcal{N}$, the Vector Domination problem asks whether a set $S$ of vertices, of cardinality $k$ or less, exists in $G$ so that every vertex…
Several algorithmic meta-theorems on kernelization have appeared in the last years, starting with the result of Bodlaender et al. [FOCS 2009] on graphs of bounded genus, then generalized by Fomin et al. [SODA 2010] to graphs excluding a…
Traditionally, kernel methods rely on the representer theorem which states that the solution to a learning problem is obtained as a linear combination of the data mapped into the reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS). While elegant from…
We consider the problem of discovering overlapping communities in networks which we model as generalizations of Graph Packing problems with overlap. We seek a collection $\mathcal{S}' \subseteq \mathcal{S}$ consisting of at least $k$ sets…
The idea of enumeration algorithms with polynomial delay is to polynomially bound the running time between any two subsequent solutions output by the enumeration algorithm. While it is open for more than four decades if all minimal…
Roman domination is a well researched topic in graph theory. Recently two new variants of Roman domination, namely triple Roman domination and quadruple Roman domination problems have been introduced, to provide better defense strategies.…
There are existing standard solvers for tackling discrete optimization problems. However, in practice, it is uncommon to apply them directly to the large input space typical of this class of problems. Rather, the input is preprocessed to…
The concept of generalized domination unifies well-known variants of domination-like and independence problems, such as Dominating Set, Independent Set, Perfect Code, etc. A generalized domination (also called $[\sigma,\rho]$-Dominating…
We prove that whenever $G$ is a graph from a nowhere dense graph class $\mathcal{C}$, and $A$ is a subset of vertices of $G$, then the number of subsets of $A$ that are realized as intersections of $A$ with $r$-neighborhoods of vertices of…
