Given a simple, undirected graph $G$ with a threshold function $\tau:V(G) \rightarrow \mathbb{N}$, the \textsc{Target Set Selection} (TSS) problem is about choosing a minimum cardinality set, say $S \subseteq V(G)$, such that starting a…

Let $G$ be a graph, which represents a social network, and suppose each node $v$ has a threshold value $\tau(v)$. Consider an initial configuration, where each node is either positive or negative. In each discrete time step, a node $v$…

The Target Set Selection problem takes as an input a graph $G$ and a non-negative integer threshold $ \mbox{thr}(v) $ for every vertex $v$. A vertex $v$ can get active as soon as at least $ \mbox{thr}(v) $ of its neighbors have been…

In this paper, we consider the Target Set Selection problem: given a graph and a threshold value $thr(v)$ for any vertex $v$ of the graph, find a minimum size vertex-subset to "activate" s.t. all the vertices of the graph are activated at…

In this paper we consider a fundamental problem in the area of viral marketing, called T{\scriptsize ARGET} S{\scriptsize ET} S{\scriptsize ELECTION} problem. In a a viral marketing setting, social networks are modeled by graphs with…

Let $G = (V,E)$ be a graph on $n$ vertices, where $d_v$ denotes the degree of vertex $v$, and $t_v$ is a threshold associated with $v$. We consider a process in which initially a set $S$ of vertices becomes active, and thereafter, in…

We consider a non-monotone activation process $(X_t)_{t\in\{ 0,1,2,\ldots\}}$ on a graph $G$, where $X_0\subseteq V(G)$, $X_t=\{ u\in V(G):|N_G(u)\cap X_{t-1}|\geq \tau(u)\}$ for every positive integer $t$, and $\tau:V(G)\to \mathbb{Z}$ is…

In this paper we consider the Target Set Selection problem. The problem naturally arises in many fields like economy, sociology, medicine. In the Target Set Selection problem one is given a graph $G$ with a function $\operatorname{thr}:…

Motivated by applications in sociology, economy and medicine, we study variants of the Target Set Selection problem, first proposed by Kempe, Kleinberg and Tardos. In our scenario one is given a graph $G=(V,E)$, integer values $t(v)$ for…

Given a graph $G$ with a vertex threshold function $\tau$, consider a dynamic process in which any inactive vertex $v$ becomes activated whenever at least $\tau(v)$ of its neighbors are activated. A vertex set $S$ is called a target set if…

This paper considers the Target Set Selection (TSS) Problem in social networks, a fundamental problem in viral marketing. In the TSS problem, a graph and a threshold value for each vertex of the graph are given. We need to find a minimum…

Let $G$ be a graph with a threshold function $\theta:V(G)\rightarrow \mathbb{N}$ such that $1\leq \theta(v)\leq d_G(v)$ for every vertex $v$ of $G$, where $d_G(v)$ is the degree of $v$ in $G$. Suppose we are given a target set $S\subseteq…

In this paper, we study the Target Set Selection problem from a parameterized complexity perspective. Here for a given graph and a threshold for each vertex, the task is to find a set of vertices (called a target set) which activates the…

In this paper we consider a fundamental problem in the area of viral marketing, called T{\scriptsize ARGET} S{\scriptsize ET} S{\scriptsize ELECTION} problem. We study the problem when the underlying graph is a block-cactus graph, a chordal…

We study the problem of deciding reconfigurability of target sets of a graph. Given a graph $G$ with vertex thresholds $\tau$, consider a dynamic process in which vertex $v$ becomes activated once at least $\tau(v)$ of its neighbors are…

Given a graph $G = (V,E)$, a threshold function $t~ :~ V \rightarrow \mathbb{N}$ and an integer $k$, we study the Harmless Set problem, where the goal is to find a subset of vertices $S \subseteq V$ of size at least $k$ such that every…

Given a spatio-temporal network (ST network) where edge properties vary with time, a time-sub-interval minimum spanning tree (TSMST) is a collection of minimum spanning trees of the ST network, where each tree is associated with a time…

A widely studied model for influence diffusion in social networks are {\it target sets}. For a graph $G$ and an integer-valued threshold function $\tau$ on its vertex set, a {\it target set} or {\it dynamic monopoly} is a set of vertices of…

The paper deals with the Feedback Vertex Set problem parameterized by the solution size. Given a graph $G$ and a parameter $k$, one has to decide if there is a set $S$ of at most $k$ vertices such that $G-S$ is acyclic. Assuming the…

Detecting on a graph the presence of the minimum number of nodes (target set) that will be able to "activate" a prescribed number of vertices in the graph is called the target set selection problem (TSS) proposed by Kempe, Kleinberg, and…
