Parameterized Complexity Results in Symmetry Breaking
Abstract. Symmetry is a common feature of many combinatorial problems. Unfortunately eliminating all symmetry from a problem is often computationally intractable. This paper argues...

The Parameterized Complexity of Global Constraints
We argue that parameterized complexity is a useful tool with which to study global constraints. In particular, we show that many global constraints which are intractable to propag...

Bit complexity of breaking and achieving symmetry in chains and rings
We consider a failure-free, asynchronous message passing network with n links, where the processors are arranged on a ring or a chain. The processors are identically programmed bu...

A new technique for distributed symmetry breaking
We introduce Multi-Trials, a new technique for symmetry breaking for distributed algorithms and apply it to various problems in general graphs. For instance, we present three rand...

Limits and Applications of Group Algebras for Parameterized Problems
The algebraic framework introduced in [Koutis, Proc. of the 35th ICALP 2008] reduces several combinatorial problems in parameterized complexity to the problem of detecting multili...
