On problems without polynomial kernels
Kernelization is a central technique used in parameterized algorithms, and in other techniques for coping with NP-hard problems. In this paper, we introduce a new method which allows us to show that many problems do not have polynomial size kernels under reasonable complexity-theoretic assumptions. These problems include kPath, k-Cycle, k-Exact Cycle, k-Short Cheap Tour, k-Graph Minor Order Tes...
متن کاملTwo Edge Modification Problems without Polynomial Kernels
Given a graph G and an integer k, the Π Edge Completion/Editing/Deletion problem asks whether it is possible to add, edit, or delete at most k edges in G such that one obtains a graph that fulfills the property Π . Edge modification problems have received considerable interest from a parameterized point of view. When parameterized by k, many of these problems turned out to be fixed-parameter tr...
متن کاملPolynomial Kernels for Weighted Problems
Kernelization is a formalization of efficient preprocessing for NP-hard problems using the framework of parameterized complexity. Among open problems in kernelization it has been asked many times whether there are deterministic polynomial kernelizations for Subset Sum and Knapsack when parameterized by the number n of items. We answer both questions affirmatively by using an algorithm for compr...
متن کاملPolynomial Kernels for Hard Problems on Disk Graphs
Kernelization is a powerful tool to obtain fixed-parameter tractable algorithms. Recent breakthroughs show that many graph problems admit small polynomial kernels when restricted to sparse graph classes such as planar graphs, bounded-genus graphs or H-minor-free graphs. We consider the intersection graphs of (unit) disks in the plane, which can be arbitrarily dense but do exhibit some geometric...
متن کاملPolynomial Kernels for Proper Interval Completion and Related Problems
Given a graph G = (V,E) and a positive integer k, the Proper Interval Completion problem asks whether there exists a set F of at most k pairs of (V ×V ) \E such that the graph H = (V,E ∪F ) is a proper interval graph. The Proper Interval Completion problem finds applications in molecular biology and genomic research [16, 24]. First announced by Kaplan, Tarjan and Shamir in FOCS ’94, this proble...
