چکیده

We give linear and polynomial time algorithms for computing a minimum hull-set in distance-hereditary and chordal graphs respectively. Prior to our result a polynomial time algorithm was only known for sub-classes of considered graph classes. Our techniques allow us to give at the same time a linear time algorithm for computing a minimum geodetic set in distancehereditary graphs.

Tenacity and some other Parameters of Interval Graphs can be computed in polynomial time

In general, computation of graph vulnerability parameters is NP-complete. In past, some algorithms were introduced to prove that computation of toughness, scattering number, integrity and weighted integrity parameters of interval graphs are polynomial. In this paper, two different vulnerability parameters of graphs, tenacity and rupture degree are defined. In general, computing the tenacity o...

Minimum Eccentricity Shortest Paths in Some Structured Graph Classes

We investigate the Minimum Eccentricity Shortest Path problem in some structured graph classes. It asks for a given graph to find a shortest path with minimum eccentricity. Although it is NP-hard in general graphs, we demonstrate that a minimum eccentricity shortest path can be found in linear time for distance-hereditary graphs (generalizing the previous result for trees) and give a generalise...

Sweep Line Algorithm for Convex Hull Revisited

Convex hull of some given points is the intersection of all convex sets containing them. It is used as primary structure in many other problems in computational geometry and other areas like image processing, model identification, geographical data systems, and triangular computation of a set of points and so on. Computing the convex hull of a set of point is one of the most fundamental and imp...

Some Algorithmic Results on Restrained Domination in Graphs

A set D ⊆ V of a graph G = (V,E) is called a restrained dominating set of G if every vertex not in D is adjacent to a vertex in D and to a vertex in V \D. The MINIMUM RESTRAINED DOMINATION problem is to find a restrained dominating set of minimum cardinality. Given a graph G, and a positive integer k, the RESTRAINED DOMINATION DECISION problem is to decide whether G has a restrained dominating ...

On Efficient Domination for Some Classes of H-Free Chordal Graphs

A vertex set D in a finite undirected graph G is an efficient dominating set (e.d.s. for short) of G if every vertex of G is dominated by exactly one vertex of D. The Efficient Domination (ED) problem, which asks for the existence of an e.d.s. in G, is known to be NP-complete even for very restricted graph classes such as for 2P3-free chordal graphs while it is solvable in polynomial time for P...
