On Tractable Cases of Target Set Selection
We study the NP-complete TARGET SET SELECTION (TSS) problem occurring in social network analysis. Complementing results on its approximability and extending results for its restric...

Fixed-parameter tractability results for full-degree spanning tree and its dual
We provide first-time fixed-parameter tractability results for the NP-complete problems Maximum Full-Degree Spanning Tree and Minimum-Vertex Feedback Edge Set. These problems are...

Some Observations on Holographic Algorithms
Abstract. We define the notion of diversity for families of finite functions, and express the limitations of a simple class of holographic algorithms in terms of limitations on d...

Cross-Composition: A New Technique for Kernelization Lower Bounds
We introduce a new technique for proving kernelization lower bounds, called cross-composition. A classical problem L cross-composes into a parameterized problem Q if an instance o...

The Bidimensional Theory of Bounded-Genus Graphs
Abstract. Bidimensionality provides a tool for developing subexponential fixed-parameter algorithms for combinatorial optimization problems on graph families that exclude a minor....
