An FPT Algorithm for Set Splitting
نویسندگان
چکیده
An FPT algorithm with a running time of O(n+2n) is described for the Set Splitting problem, parameterized by the number k of sets to be split. It is also shown that there can be no FPT algorithm for this problem with a running time of the form 2n unless the satisfiability of n-variable 3SAT instances can be decided in time 2.

Greedy Localization, Iterative Compression, Modeled Crown Reductions: New FPT Techniques, an Improved Algorithm for Set Splitting, and a Novel 2k Kernelization for Vertex Cover
The two objectives of this paper are: (1) to articulate three new general techniques for designing FPT algorithms, and (2) to apply these to obtain new FPT algorithms for Set Splitting and Vertex Cover. In the case of Set Splitting, we improve the best previous O(72) FPT algorithm due to Dehne, Fellows and Rosamond [DFR03], to O(8) by an approach based on greedy localization in conjunction with...
متن کاملRandomized Algorithm For 3-Set Splitting Problem and it's Markovian Model
In this paper we restrict every set splitting problem to the special case in which every set has just three elements. This restricted version is also NP-complete. Then, we introduce a general conversion from any set splitting problem to 3-set splitting. Then we introduce a randomize algorithm, and we use Markov chain model for run time complexity analysis of this algorithm. In the last section ...
متن کاملParameterized approximation of dominating set problems
A problem open for many years is whether there is an FPT algorithm that given a graph G and parameter k, either: (1) determines that G has no k-Dominating Set, or (2) produces a dominating set of size at most g(k), where g(k) is some fixed function of k. Such an outcome is termed an FPT approximation algorithm. We describe some results that begin to provide some answers. We show that there is n...
متن کاملAn O∗(2O(k)) FPT Algorithm for the Undirected Feedback Vertex Set Problem∗
We describe an algorithm for the FEEDBACK VERTEX SET problem on undirected graphs, parameterized by the size k of the feedback vertex set, that runs in time O(ckn3) where c = 10.567 and n is the number of vertices in the graph. This improves on the best previous FPT algorithms due to [RSS02, KPS04] and [RS05] that have running times of the form O ∗(2O(k lg lg ) and O∗(2O(k lg k lg lg k ), respe...
متن کاملA BINARY LEVEL SET METHOD FOR STRUCTURAL TOPOLOGY OPTIMIZATION
This paper proposes an effective algorithm based on the level set method (LSM) to solve shape and topology optimization problems. Since the conventional LSM has several limitations, a binary level set method (BLSM) is used instead. In the BLSM, the level set function can only take 1 and -1 values at convergence. Thus, it is related to phase-field methods. We don’t need to solve the Hamilton-Jac...
