NP-completeness results for edge modification problems

چکیده
The aim of edge modification problems is to change the edge set of a given graph as little as possible in order to satisfy a certain property. Edge modification problems in graphs have a lot of applications in different areas, and many polynomial-time algorithms and NP-completeness proofs for this kind of problems are known. In this work we prove new NP-completeness results for these problems in some graph classes, such as interval, circular-arc, permutation, circle, bridged, weakly chordal and clique-Helly graphs.

Parameterized Lower Bounds and Dichotomy Results for the NP-completeness of H-free Edge Modification Problems
For a graph H, the H-free Edge Deletion problem asks whether there exist at most k edges whose deletion from the input graph G results in a graph without any induced copy of H. H-free Edge Completion and H-free Edge Editing are defined similarly where only completion (addition) of edges are allowed in the former and both completion and deletion are allowed in the latter. We completely settle th...
متن کاملThe NP-Completeness of Some Edge-Partition Problems
We show that for each fixed n 3 it is NP-complete to determine whether an arbitrary graph can be edge-partitioned into subgraphs isomorphic to the complete graph Kn. The NP-completeness of a number of other edge-partition problems follows immediately.
متن کاملEditing Simple Graphs
We study the complexity of turning a given graph, by edge editing, into a target graph whose critical-clique graph is any fixed graph. The problem came up in practice, in an effort of mining huge word similarity graphs for well structured word clusters. It also adds to the rich field of graph modification problems. We show in a generic way that several variants of this problem are in SUBEPT. As...
متن کاملInverse p-median problems with variable edge lengths
The inverse p-median problem with variable edge lengths on graphs is to modify the edge lengths at minimum total cost with respect to given modification bounds such that a prespecified set of p vertices becomes a pmedian with respect to the new edge lengths. The problem is shown to be strongly NP-hard on general graphs and weakly NP-hard on series-parallel graphs. Therefore, the special case on...
متن کاملGraph-Based Data Clustering with Overlaps
We introduce overlap cluster graph modification problems where, other than in most previous work, the clusters of the target graph may overlap. More precisely, the studied graph problems ask for a minimum number of edge modifications such that the resulting graph consists of clusters (maximal cliques) that may overlap up to a certain amount specified by the overlap number s. In the case of s-ve...
