Recently, Hegerfeld and Kratsch [ESA 2023] obtained the first tight algorithmic results for hard connectivity problems parameterized by clique-width. Concretely, they gave one-sided error Monte-Carlo algorithms that given a…
The complexity of problems involving global constraints is usually much more difficult to understand than the complexity of problems only involving local constraints. A natural form of global constraints are connectivity constraints. We…
In this work we start the investigation of tight complexity bounds for connectivity problems parameterized by cutwidth assuming the Strong Exponential-Time Hypothesis (SETH). Van Geffen et al. posed this question for odd cycle transversal…
In this work we contribute to the study of the fine-grained complexity of problems parameterized by multi-clique-width, which was initiated by F\"urer [ITCS 2017] and pursued further by Chekan and Kratsch [MFCS 2023]. Multi-clique-width is…
We study connectivity problems from a fine-grained parameterized perspective. Cygan et al. (TALG 2022) obtained algorithms with single-exponential running time $\alpha^{tw} n^{O(1)}$ for connectivity problems parameterized by treewidth…
Given a clique-width $k$-expression of a graph $G$, we provide $2^{O(k)}\cdot n$ time algorithms for connectivity constraints on locally checkable properties such as Node-Weighted Steiner Tree, Connected Dominating Set, or Connected Vertex…
We revisit the complexity of the classical $k$-Coloring problem parameterized by clique-width. This is a very well-studied problem that becomes highly intractable when the number of colors $k$ is large. However, much less is known on its…
A breakthrough result of Cygan et al. (FOCS 2011) showed that connectivity problems parameterized by treewidth can be solved much faster than the previously best known time $\mathcal{O}^*(2^{\mathcal{O}(tw \log(tw))})$. Using their inspired…
Cutwidth is a widely studied parameter that quantifies how well a graph can be decomposed along small edge-cuts. It complements pathwidth, which captures decomposition by small vertex separators, and it is well-known that cutwidth…
In this work, we study two natural generalizations of clique-width introduced by Martin F\"urer. Multi-clique-width (mcw) allows every vertex to hold multiple labels [ITCS 2017], while for fusion-width (fw) we have a possibility to merge…
We introduce a new notion of acyclicity representation in labeled graphs, and present three applications thereof. Our main result is an algorithm that, given a graph $G$ and a $k$-clique expression of $G$, in time $O(6^kn^c)$ counts modulo…
For the vast majority of local graph problems standard dynamic programming techniques give c^tw V^O(1) algorithms, where tw is the treewidth of the input graph. On the other hand, for problems with a global requirement (usually…
It is well known that many local graph problems, like Vertex Cover and Dominating Set, can be solved in 2^{O(tw)}|V|^{O(1)} time for graphs G=(V,E) with a given tree decomposition of width tw. However, for nonlocal problems, like the…
Many combinatorial problems can be solved in time $O^*(c^{tw})$ on graphs of treewidth $tw$, for a problem-specific constant $c$. In several cases, matching upper and lower bounds on $c$ are known based on the Strong Exponential Time…
Courcelle's theorem and its adaptations to cliquewidth have shaped the field of exact parameterized algorithms and are widely considered the archetype of algorithmic meta-theorems. In the past decade, there has been growing interest in…
Many hard graph problems, such as Hamiltonian Cycle, become FPT when parameterized by treewidth, a parameter that is bounded only on sparse graphs. When parameterized by the more general parameter clique-width, Hamiltonian Cycle becomes…
The Cut & Count technique and the rank-based approach have lead to single-exponential FPT algorithms parameterized by treewidth, that is, running in time $2^{O(tw)}n^{O(1)}$, for Feedback Vertex Set and connected versions of the classical…
In $(k,r)$-Center we are given a (possibly edge-weighted) graph and are asked to select at most $k$ vertices (centers), so that all other vertices are at distance at most $r$ from a center. In this paper we provide a number of tight…
The notion of treewidth, introduced by Robertson and Seymour in their seminal Graph Minors series, turned out to have tremendous impact on graph algorithmics. Many hard computational problems on graphs turn out to be efficiently solvable in…
Clique-width is a well-studied graph parameter owing to its use in understanding algorithmic tractability: if the clique-width of a graph class ${\cal G}$ is bounded by a constant, a wide range of problems that are NP-complete in general…
