Incompressibility of H-free edge modification problems: Towards a dichotomy

چکیده
Given a graph G and an integer k, the H-free Edge Editing problem is to find whether there exist at most k pairs of vertices in such that changing adjacency results without any induced copy H. Nontrivial polynomial kernels are known for some graphs H with 4 vertices, but starting from 5 only if either complete or empty. This suggests conjecture no other least where admits kernel. Towards this goal, we obtain set nine 5-vertex every H?H, incompressible complexity assumption NP?coNP/poly holds, then five neither nor We similar also Deletion/Completion.

Incompressibility of H-Free Edge Modification
Given a fixed graph H, the H-Free Edge Deletion (resp., Completion, Editing) problems ask whether it is possible to delete from (resp., add to, delete from or add to) the input graph at most k edges so that the resulting graph is H-free, i.e., contains no induced subgraph isomorphic to H. These H-free edge modification problems are well known to be FPT for every fixed H. In this paper, we study...
متن کاملParameterized 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 کاملHardness of Approximation for H-Free Edge Modification Problems
The H-free Edge Deletion problem asks, for a given graph G and integer k, whether it is possible to delete at most k edges from G to make it H-free, that is, not containing H as an induced subgraph. The H-free Edge Completion problem is defined similarly, but we add edges instead of deleting them. The study of these two problem families has recently been the subject of intensive studies from th...
متن کاملHardness of edge-modification problems
For a graph property P consider the following computational problem. Given an input graph G, what is the minimum number of edge modifications (additions and/or deletions) that one has to apply to G in order to turn it into a graph that satisfies P? Namely, what is the edit distance ∆(G,P) of a graph G from satisfying P. Clearly, the computational complexity of such a problem strongly depends on...
متن کاملComplexity Classification of Some Edge Modification Problems
In an edge modification problem one has to change the edge set of a given graph as little as possible so as to satisfy a certain property. We prove the NP-hardness of a variety of edge modification problems with respect to some well-studied classes of graphs. These include perfect, chordal, chain, comparability, split and asteroidal triple free. We show that some of these problems become polyno...
