Covering Small Independent Sets and Separators with Applications to Parameterized Algorithms

چکیده
We present two new combinatorial tools for the design of parameterized algorithms. The first is a simple linear time randomized algorithm that given as input a d-degenerate graph G and an integer k, outputs an independent set Y , such that for every independent set X in G of size at most k, the probability that X is a subset of Y is at least (( (d+1)k

Two new heuristic algorithms for Covering Tour Problem
Covering Tour Problem (CTP) is the generalized form of Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP), which has found different applications in the designing of distribution networks, disaster relief, and transportation routing. The purpose of this problem is to determine the Hamiltoniancyclewiththe lowest costusinga subset of all the nodes, such that the other nodes would be in a distance shorter than the ...
متن کاملMultigranulation single valued neutrosophic covering-based rough sets and their applications to multi-criteria group decision making
In this paper, three types of (philosophical, optimistic and pessimistic) multigranulation single valued neutrosophic (SVN) covering-based rough set models are presented, and these three models are applied to the problem of multi-criteria group decision making (MCGDM).Firstly, a type of SVN covering-based rough set model is proposed.Based on this rough set model, three types of mult...
متن کاملFinding Secluded Places of Special Interest in Graphs
Finding a vertex subset in a graph that satisfies a certain property is one of the most-studied topics in algorithmic graph theory. The focus herein is often on minimizing or maximizing the size of the solution, that is, the size of the desired vertex set. In several applications, however, we also want to limit the “exposure” of the solution to the rest of the graph. This is the case, for examp...
متن کاملHeuristic and exact algorithms for Generalized Bin Covering Problem
In this paper, we study the Generalized Bin Covering problem. For this problem an exact algorithm is introduced which can nd optimal solution for small scale instances. To nd a solution near optimal for large scale instances, a heuristic algorithm has been proposed. By computational experiments, the eciency of the heuristic algorithm is assessed.
متن کاملImportant Separators and Parameterized Algorithms
The notion of “important separators” and bounding the number of such separators turned out to be a very useful technique in the design of fixed-parameter tractable algorithms for multi(way) cut problems. For example, the recent breakthrough result of Chen et al. [3] on the Directed Feedback Vertex Set problem can be also explained using this notion. In my talk, I will overview combinatorial and...
