Algorithms for Graphs of (Locally) Bounded Treewidth

Many real-life problems can be modeled by graph-theoretic problems. These graph problems are usually NP-hard and hence there is no efficient algorithm for solving them, unless P= NP. One way to overcome this hardness is to solve the problems when restricted to special graphs. Trees are one kind of graph for which several NP-complete problems can be solved in polynomial time. Graphs of bounded t...

Restricted Space Algorithms for Isomorphism on Bounded Treewidth Graphs

The Graph Isomorphism problem restricted to graphs of bounded treewidth or bounded tree distance width are known to be solvable in polynomial time [2],[19]. We give restricted space algorithms for these problems proving the following results: • Isomorphism for bounded tree distance width graphs is in L and thus complete for the class. We also show that for this kind of graphs a canon can be com...

Recoloring bounded treewidth graphs

Let k be an integer. Two vertex k-colorings of a graph are adjacent if they differ on exactly one vertex. A graph is k-mixing if any proper k-coloring can be transformed into any other through a sequence of adjacent proper k-colorings. Any graph is (tw + 2)-mixing, where tw is the treewidth of the graph (Cereceda 2006). We prove that the shortest sequence between any two (tw + 2)-colorings is a...

Locally Constrained Homomorphisms on Graphs of Bounded Treewidth and Bounded Degree

A homomorphism from a graph G to a graph H is locally bijective, surjective, or injective if its restriction to the neighborhood of every vertex of G is bijective, surjective, or injective, respectively. We prove that the problems of testing whether a given graph G allows a homomorphism to a given graph H that is locally bijective, surjective, or injective, respectively, are NP-complete, even w...
