Parameterized complexity of the weighted independent set problem beyond graphs of bounded clique number
The maximum independent set problem is known to be NP-hard for graphs in general, but is solvable in polynomial time for graphs in many special classes. It is also known that the problem is generally intractable from a parameterized point of view. A simple Ramsey argument implies the fixed parameter tractability of the maximum independent set problem in classes of graphs of bounded clique numbe...
متن کاملParameterized Complexity of the Clique Partition Problem
The problem of deciding whether the edge-set of a given graph can be partitioned into at most k cliques is well known to be NP-complete. In this paper we investigate this problem from the point of view of parameterized complexity. We show that this problem is fixed parameter tractable if we choose the number of cliques as parameter. In particular, we show that in polynomial time, a kernel bound...
متن کاملOn the complexity of the exact weighted independent set problem
Suppose we have a well-solved optimization problem, such as minimum spanning tree, maximum cut in planar graphs, minimum weight perfect matching, or maximum weight independent set in a bipartite graph. How hard is it to determine whether there exists a solution with a given weight ? Papadimitriou and Yannakakis showed in [PAPADIMITRIOU 82] that these so-called exact versions of the above optimi...
متن کاملColouring perfect graphs with bounded clique number
A graph is perfect if the chromatic number of every induced subgraph equals the size of its largest clique, and an algorithm of Grötschel, Lovász, and Schrijver [9] from 1988 finds an optimal colouring of a perfect graph in polynomial time. But this algorithm uses the ellipsoid method, and it is a well-known open question to construct a “combinatorial” polynomial-time algorithm that yields an o...
متن کاملParameterized algorithm for weighted independent set problem in bull-free graphs
The maximum stable set problem is NP-hard, even when restricted to triangle-free graphs. In particular, one cannot expect a polynomial time algorithm deciding if a bull-free graph has a stable set of size k, when k is part of the instance. Our main result in this paper is to show the existence of an FPT algorithm when we parameterize the problem by the solution size k. A polynomial kernel is un...
