We show that, in general, the characteristic polynomial of a hypergraph is not determined by its ``polynomial deck'', the multiset of characteristic polynomials of its vertex-deleted subgraphs, thus settling the ``polynomial reconstruction…

We present a polynomial time algorithm that for any graph G and integer k >= 0, either finds a spanning tree with at least k internal vertices, or outputs a new graph G' on at most 3k vertices and an integer k' such that G has a spanning…

A well-recognized limitation of kernel learning is the requirement to handle a kernel matrix, whose size is quadratic in the number of training examples. Many methods have been proposed to reduce this computational cost, mostly by using a…

The $P_2$-packing problem asks for whether a graph contains $k$ vertex-disjoint paths each of length two. We continue the study of its kernelization algorithms, and develop a $5k$-vertex kernel.

Let integers $r\ge 2$ and $d\ge 3$ be fixed. Let ${\cal G}_d$ be the set of graphs with no induced path on $d$ vertices. We study the problem of packing $k$ vertex-disjoint copies of $K_{1,r}$ ($k\ge 2$) into a graph $G$ from parameterized…

Symmetry arises often when learning from high dimensional data. For example, data sets consisting of point clouds, graphs, and unordered sets appear routinely in contemporary applications, and exhibit rich underlying symmetries.…

In the Maximum Minimal Vertex Cover (MMVC) problem, we are given a graph $G$ and a positive integer $k$, and the objective is to decide whether $G$ contains a minimal vertex cover of size at least $k$. Motivated by the kernelization of MMVC…

The polynomial kernels are widely used in machine learning and they are one of the default choices to develop kernel-based classification and regression models. However, they are rarely used and considered in numerical analysis due to their…

We consider kernels of discrete convolution operators or, equivalently, homogeneous solutions of partial difference operators and show that these solutions always have to be exponential polynomials. The respective polynomial space in…

The theory of kernelization can be used to rigorously analyze data reduction for graph coloring problems. Here, the aim is to reduce a q-Coloring input to an equivalent but smaller input whose size is provably bounded in terms of structural…

We investigate a series of learning kernel problems with polynomial combinations of base kernels, which will help us solve regression and classification problems. We also perform some numerical experiments of polynomial kernels with…

We study the parameterized and kernelization complexity of the s-Club Cluster Edge Deletion problem, a distance-bounded generalization of Cluster Edge Deletion. Given a graph G = (V, E) and integers k and s, the goal is to delete at most k…

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,…

\textsc{Edge Triangle Packing} and \textsc{Edge Triangle Covering} are dual problems extensively studied in the field of parameterized complexity. Given a graph $G$ and an integer $k$, \textsc{Edge Triangle Packing} seeks to determine…

We consider the following Tur\'an-type problem: given a fixed tournament $H$, what is the least integer $t=t(n,H)$ so that adding $t$ edges to any $n$-vertex tournament, results in a digraph containing a copy of $H$. Similarly, what is the…

In the Feedback Arc Set in Tournaments (Subset-FAST) problem, we are given a tournament $D$ and a positive integer $k$, and the objective is to determine whether there exists an arc set $S \subseteq A(D)$ of size at most $k$ whose removal…

The graph crossing number problem, cr(G)<=k, asks for a drawing of a graph G in the plane with at most k edge crossings. Although this problem is in general notoriously difficult, it is fixed- parameter tractable for the parameter k…

Let $G$ be a graph having a vertex $v$ such that $H = G - v$ is a trivially perfect graph. We give a polynomial-time algorithm for the problem of deciding whether it is possible to add at most $k$ edges to $G$ to obtain a trivially perfect…

Graph separation and partitioning are fundamental problems that have been extensively studied both in theory and practice. The \textsc{$p$-Size Separator} problem, closely related to the \textsc{Balanced Separator} problem, is to check…

Given an integer $k>4$ and a graph $H$, we prove that, assuming P$\neq$NP, the List-$k$-Coloring Problem restricted to $H$-free graphs can be solved in polynomial time if and only if either every component of $H$ is a path on at most three…
