Bidimensionality and EPTAS
Bidimensionality theory appears to be a powerful framework for the development of metaalgorithmic techniques. It was introduced by Demaine et al. [J. ACM 2005 ] as a tool to obtai...

How to rank with few errors
We present a polynomial time approximation scheme (PTAS) for the minimum feedback arc set problem on tournaments. A simple weighted generalization gives a PTAS for KemenyYoung ran...

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...

Extracting a largest redundancy-free XML storage structure from an acyclic hypergraph in polynomial time
Given a hypergraph and a set of embedded functional dependencies, we investigate the problem of determining the conditions under which we can efficiently generate redundancy-free ...

Satisfiability Allows No Nontrivial Sparsification Unless The Polynomial-Time Hierarchy Collapses
Consider the following two-player communication process to decide a language L: The first player holds the entire input x but is polynomially bounded; the second player is computa...
