The Parameterized Complexity of the Rectangle Stabbing Problem and Its Variants
We study the parameterized complexity of an NP-complete geometric covering problem called d-dimensional Rectangle Stabbing where we are given a set of axis-parallel d-dimensional h...

Fixed-parameter evolutionary algorithms and the vertex cover problem
In this paper, we consider multi-objective evolutionary algorithms for the Vertex Cover problem in the context of parameterized complexity. We relate the runtime of our algorithms...

Kernelization as Heuristic Structure for the Vertex Cover Problem
Abstract. For solving combinatorial optimisation problems, exact methods accurately exploit the structure of the problem but are tractable only up to a certain size; approximation ...

Parameterized Graph Editing with Chosen Vertex Degrees
We study the parameterized complexity of the following problem: is it possible to make a given graph r-regular by applying at most k elementary editing operations; the operations a...
