Many NP-hard problems can be solved efficiently when the input is restricted to graphs of bounded tree-width or clique-width. In particular, by the celebrated result of Courcelle,...

A vertex subset D of a graph G is a dominating set if every vertex of G is either in D or is adjacent to a vertex in D. The paired-domination problem on G asks for a minimum-cardi...

Abstract. We develop a generic framework for deriving linear-size problem kernels for NP-hard problems on planar graphs. We demonstrate the usefulness of our framework in several c...
A dominating set D of a graph G = (V, E) is a subset of vertices such that every vertex in V \ D has at least one neighbour in D. Moreover if D is an independent set, i.e. no verti...
