Finding Hidden Independent Sets in Interval Graphs
Consider a game in a given set of intervals (and their implied interval graph G) in which the adversary chooses an independent setX in G. The goal is to discover this hidden independent set X by making the fewest queries of the form “Is point p covered by an interval inX?” Our interest in this problem stems from two applications: experimental gene discovery with PCR technology and the game of B...
متن کاملFinding Independent Sets in Unions of Perfect Graphs
Themaximum independent set problem (MAXIS) on general graphs is known to beNPhard to approximate within a factor of n1−ǫ, for any ǫ > 0. However, there are many “easy” classes of graphs on which the problem can be solved in polynomial time. In this context, an interesting question is that of computing the maximum independent set in a graph that can be expressed as the union of a small number of...
متن کاملINDEPENDENT SETS OF SOME GRAPHS ASSOCIATED TO COMMUTATIVE RINGS
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a simple graph. A set $Ssubseteq V$ isindependent set of $G$, if no two vertices of $S$ are adjacent.The independence number $alpha(G)$ is the size of a maximumindependent set in the graph. In this paper we study and characterize the independent sets ofthe zero-divisor graph $Gamma(R)$ and ideal-based zero-divisor graph $Gamma_I(R)$of a commutative ring $R$.
متن کاملFinding Independent Sets inK4-Free 4-Regular Connected Graphs
Let G be a K4-free 4-regular connected graph with & vertices. Then G contains an independent set of vertices of cardinality at least (7&&4) 26. Furthermore, the proof will yield a polynomial-time algorithm which will return an independent set of cardinality at least (7&&4) 26 for any such graph. A family of K4 -free 4-regular connected graphs with maximum independent set of cardinality 3 11& is...
متن کاملFinding Large Independent Sets
This lecture deals with the problem of proper vertex colorings of graphs. More speciically, we are interested in coloring a given 3-colorable graph with as few colors as we can. It is easy to see that it is NP-Hard to nd a 3 coloring for any given 3-colorable graph-this would enable deciding whether a general graph is 3-colorable. If a polynomial-time algorithm existed for 3-coloring a 3-colora...
