We propose and study the Maximum Constrained Agreement Subtree (MCAST) problem, which is a variant of the classical Maximum Agreement Subtree (MAST) problem. Our problem allows us...
The Linear Ordering Problem with Cumulative Costs is an NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem arising from an application in UMTS mobile-phone communication systems. This pap...
: In this paper we consider the edge ranking problem of weighted trees. We prove that a special instance of this problem, namely edge ranking of multitrees is NP-hard already for m...
We prove that the pathwidth of Halin graphs can be 3-approximated in linear time. Our approximation algorithms is based on a combinatorial result about respectful edge orderings o...
We show that there exists a linear time algorithm for deciding whether a graph of bounded tree-width has clique-width k for some fixed integer k. Communicated by Giuseppe Liotta ...
