The k-Leaf Power recognition problem is a particular case of graph power problems: For a given graph it asks whether there exists an unrooted tree--the k-leaf root--with leaves on...
The NP-complete Closest 4-Leaf Power problem asks, given an undirected graph, whether it can be modified by at most r edge insertions or deletions such that it becomes a 4-leaf po...
Dealing with the NP-complete Dominating Set problem on graphs, we demonstrate the power of data reduction by preprocessing from a theoretical as well as a practical side. In parti...
