چکیده

A graph is a tree of paths (cycles), if its vertex set can be partitioned into clusters, such that each cluster induces a simple path (cycle), and the clusters form a tree. Our main result states that the problem whether or not a given graph is a tree of paths (cycles) is NP-complete. Moreover, if the length of the paths (cycles) is bounded by a constant, the problem is in P.

NP-Completeness of Some Tree-Clustering Problems

A graph is a tree of paths (cycles), if its vertex set can be partitioned into clusters, such that each cluster induces a simple path (cycle), and the clusters form a tree. Our main result states that the problem whether or not a given graph is a tree of paths (cycles) is NP-complete. Moreover, if the length of the paths (cycles) is bounded by a constant, the problem is in P.

Minimizing the overhead for some tree-scheduling problems

This paper is devoted to the study of tree-scheduling problems within the execution model described by Anderson, Beame and Ruzzo. We first prove the NP-completeness of the problem of minimizing the overhead for scheduling trees on m processors, and then we propose an algorithm that provides optimal schedules when complete trees are considered.

Finding a tree structure in a resolution proof is NP-complete

The resolution tree problem is to decide whether a given sequencelike resolution refutation admits a tree structure. This paper shows the NP-completeness of both the resolution tree problem and a natural generalization of the resolution tree problem that does not involve resolution.

NP-Completeness of Minimal Width Unordered Tree Layout

Tree layout has received considerable attention because of its practical importance. Arguably the most common drawing convention is the (ordered) layered tree convention for rooted trees in which the layout is required to preserve the relative order of a node’s children. However, in some applications preserving the ordering of children is not important, and considerably more compact layout can ...

Some NP-complete edge packing and partitioning problems in planar graphs

Graph packing and partitioning problems have been studied in many contexts, including from the algorithmic complexity perspective. Consider the packing problem of determining whether a graph contains a spanning tree and a cycle that do not share edges. Bernáth and Király proved that this decision problem is NP-complete and asked if the same result holds when restricting to planar graphs. Simila...
