چکیده

We give the first nonconstant lower bounds for the approximability of the Independent Set Problem on the Power Law Graphs. These bounds are of the form n in the case when the power law exponent satisfies β < 1. In the case when β = 1, the lower bound is of the form log(n) . The embedding technique used in the proof could also be of independent interest.

Inapproximability of Dominating Set in Power Law Graphs

We give logarithmic lower bounds for the approximability of the Minimum Dominating Set problem in connected (α, β)-Power Law Graphs. We give also a best up to now upper approximation bound on the problem for the case of the parameters β > 2. We develop also a new functional method for proving lower approximation bounds and display a sharp phase transition between approximability and inapproxima...

Approximability of Combinatorial Optimization Problems on Power Law Networks

One of the central parts in the study of combinatorial optimization is to classify the NP-hard optimization problems in terms of their approximability. In this thesis we study the Minimum Vertex Cover (Min-VC) problem and the Minimum Dominating Set (Min-DS) problem in the context of so called power law graphs. This family of graphs is motivated by recent findings on the degree distribution of e...

Fuzzy Forcing Set on Fuzzy Graphs

The investigation of impact of fuzzy sets on zero forcing set is the main aim of this paper. According to this, results lead us to a new concept which we introduce it as Fuzzy Zero Forcing Set (FZFS). We propose this concept and suggest a polynomial time algorithm to construct FZFS. Further more we compute the propagation time of FZFS on fuzzy graphs. This concept can be more efficient to model...

Approximation Complexity of Max-Cut on Power Law Graphs

In this paper we study the MAX-CUT problem on power law graphs (PLGs) with power law exponent β. We prove some new approximability results on that problem. In particular we show that there exist polynomial time approximation schemes (PTAS) for MAX-CUT on PLGs for the power law exponent β in the interval (0, 2). For β > 2 we show that for some ε > 0, MAX-CUT is NP-hard to approximate within appr...
