Extending the Max Algorithm for maximum independent set
نویسندگان
چکیده
The maximum independent set problem is an NP-hard problem. In this paper, we consider Algorithm MAX, which is a polynomial time algorithm for finding a maximal independent set in a graph G. We present a set of forbidden induced subgraphs such that Algorithm MAX always results in finding a maximum independent set ofG. We also describe two modifications of Algorithm MAX and sets of forbidden induced subgraphs for the new algorithms.

The Complexity of Maximum k-Order Bounded Component Set Proble
Given a graph G = (V, E) and a positive integer k, in MAXIMUM k-ORDER BOUNDED COMPONENT SET (MAX-k-OBCS), it is required to find a vertex set S ⊆ V of maximum size such that each component in the induced graph G[S] has at most k vertices. We prove that for constant k, MAX-k-OBCS is hard to approximate within a factor of n1−e, for any e > 0, unless P = NP. This is an improvement on the previous ...
متن کاملAn LP-Designed Algorithm for Constraint Satisfaction
The class Max (r, 2)-CSP consists of constraint satisfaction problems with at most two r-valued variables per clause. For instances with n variables and m binary clauses, we present an O(nr)-time algorithm. It is the fastest algorithm for most problems in the class (including Max Cut, Max 2-Sat, and weighted Maximum Independent Set), and in combination with “Generalized CSPs” introduced in a co...
متن کاملA note on anti-coordination and social interactions
This note confirms a conjecture of (Bramoullé in Games Econ Behav 58:30–49, 2007). The problem, which we name the maximum independent cut problem, is a restricted version of the MAX-CUT problem, requiring one side of the cut to be an independent set. We show that the maximum independent cut problem does not admit any polynomial time algorithm with approximation ratio better than n1− , where n i...
متن کاملRESOLUTION OF NONLINEAR OPTIMIZATION PROBLEMS SUBJECT TO BIPOLAR MAX-MIN FUZZY RELATION EQUATION CONSTRAINTS USING GENETIC ALGORITHM
This paper studies the nonlinear optimization problems subject to bipolar max-min fuzzy relation equation constraints. The feasible solution set of the problems is non-convex, in a general case. Therefore, conventional nonlinear optimization methods cannot be ideal for resolution of such problems. Hence, a Genetic Algorithm (GA) is proposed to find their optimal solution. This algorithm uses th...
متن کاملFast Algorithms for Max Independent Set in Graphs of Small Average Degree
max independent set is a paradigmatic problem in theoretical computer science and numerous studies tackle its resolution by exact algorithms with non-trivial worst-case complexity. The best such complexity is, to our knowledge, the O(1.1889) algorithm claimed by (J. M. Robson, Finding a maximum independent set in time O(2), Technical Report 1251-01, LaBRI, Université de Bordeaux I, 2001) in his...
