On Computational Complexity of Counting Fixed Points in Symmetric Boolean Graph Automata
Abstract. We study computational complexity of counting the fixed point configurations (FPs) in certain classes of graph automata viewed as discrete dynamical systems. We prove t...

Fixed-Parameter Complexity of Minimum Profile Problems
The profile of a graph is an integer-valued parameter defined via vertex orderings; it is known that the profile of a graph equals the smallest number of edges of an interval supe...

Algorithmic Lower Bounds for Problems Parameterized by Clique-width
Many NP-hard problems can be solved efficiently when the input is restricted to graphs of bounded tree-width or clique-width. In particular, by the celebrated result of Courcelle,...

Ubiquitous Parameterization - Invitation to Fixed-Parameter Algorithms
Abstract. Problem parameters are ubiquitous. In every area of computer science, we find all kinds of “special aspects” to the problems encountered. Hence, the study of paramet...

Concurrent counting is harder than queuing
In both distributed counting and queuing, processors in a distributed system issue operations which are organized into a total order. In counting, each processor receives the rank...
