Kernelizations for Parameterized Counting Problems
Abstract. Kernelizations are an important tool in designing fixed parameter algorithms for parameterized decision problems. We introduce an analogous notion for counting problems,...

Cut-and-solve: An iterative search strategy for combinatorial optimization problems
Branch-and-bound and branch-and-cut use search trees to identify optimal solutions to combinatorial optimization problems. In this paper, we introduce an iterative search strategy...

A general heuristic for vehicle routing problems
We present a unified heuristic, which is able to solve five different variants of the vehicle routing problem: the vehicle routing problem with time windows (VRPTW), the capacit...

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,...
