Recognizing tough graphs is NP-hard
We consider only undirected graphs without loops or multiple edges. Our terminology and notation will be standard except as indicated; a good reference for any undefined terms is [2]. We will use c(G) to denote the number of components of a graph G. Chvtital introduced the notion of tough graphs in [3]. Let t be any positive real number. A graph G is said to be t-tough if tc(G-X)5 JXJ for all X...
متن کاملRecognizing Union-Find trees is NP-complete
Disjoint-Set forests, consisting of Union-Find trees are data structures having a widespread practical application due to their efficiency. Despite them being well-known, no exact structural characterization of these trees is known (such a characterization exists for Union trees which are constructed without using path compression). In this paper we provide such a characterization and show that...
متن کاملRecognizing Shrinkable Complexes Is NP-Complete
We say that a simplicial complex is shrinkable if there exists a sequence of admissible edge contractions that reduces the complex to a single vertex. We prove that it is NP-complete to decide whether a (two-dimensional) simplicial complex is shrinkable. Along the way, we describe examples of contractible complexes that are not shrinkable.
متن کاملRecognizing Maximal Unfrozen Graphs with respect to Independent Sets is CO-NP-complete
A graph is unfrozen with respect to k independent set if it has an independent set of size k after the addition of any edge. The problem of recognizing such graphs is known to be NP-complete. A graph is maximal if the addition of one edge means it is no longer unfrozen. We designate the problem of recognizing maximal unfrozen graphs as MAX(U(k-SET)) and show that this problem is CO-NP-complete....
متن کاملRecognizing HHDS-Free Graphs
In this paper, we consider the recognition problem on the HHDS-free graphs, a class of homogeneously orderable graphs, and we show that it has polynomial time complexity. In particular, we describe a simple O(nm)-time algorithm which determines whether a graph G on n vertices and m edges is HHDS-free. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first polynomial-time algorithm for recognizing this...
