Hardness of Parameterized Resolution
Parameterized Resolution and, moreover, a general framework for parameterized proof complexity was introduced by Dantchev, Martin, and Szeider [16] (FOCS’07). In that paper, Dan...

Parameterized Proof Complexity: a Complexity Gap for Parameterized Tree-like Resolution
We propose a proof-theoretic approach for gaining evidence that certain parameterized problems are not fixed-parameter tractable. We consider proofs that witness that a given pro...

Resolution Is Not Automatizable Unless W[P] Is Tractable
We show that neither Resolution nor tree-like Resolution is automatizable unless the class W[P] from the hierarchy of parameterized problems is fixed-parameter tractable by randomi...

Determining the Winner of a Dodgson Election is Hard
Computing the Dodgson Score of a candidate in an election is a hard computational problem, which has been analyzed using classical and parameterized analysis. In this paper we reso...

Easy and hard coalition resource game formation problems: a parameterized complexity analysis
Coalition formation is a key topic in multi–agent systems (mas). Coalitions enable agents to achieve goals that they may not have been able to achieve independently, and encoura...
