非循环匹配问题的参数化复杂性

On the Parameterized Complexity of the Acyclic Matching Problem

Sahab Hajebi, Ramin Javadi

摘要:

匹配是图中没有公共端点的一组边。一个匹配M称为无圈的,如果M中边的端点上的导出子图是无圈的。给定一个图G和一个整数k,无圈匹配问题寻求G中大小为k的无圈匹配。这个问题是NP完全问题。在本文中,我们从不同的方面研究了问题的复杂性。首先,我们证明了对于最大度为三且围长任意大的平面二部图类,该问题仍然是NP完全的。同时,对于最大度为4的平面线图类,该问题仍然是NP-完全的。此外,我们还研究了问题的参数化复杂性。特别地,我们证明了关于参数k,该问题在二部图上是W[1]-困难的。另一方面,该问题相对于参数tw和(k,c4)是固定参数可处理的,其中tw和c4是输入图的树宽和长度为4的圈的数量。我们还证明了对于线图和每一个真小闭图类(包括平面图),该问题是关于参数k的固定参数可处理的。

英文摘要:

A matching is a set of edges in a graph with no common endpoint. A matching M is called acyclic if the induced subgraph on the endpoints of the edges in M is acyclic. Given a graph G and an integer k, Acyclic Matching Problem seeks for an acyclic matching of size k in G. The problem is known to be NP-complete. In this paper, we investigate the complexity of the problem in different aspects. First, we prove that the problem remains NP-complete for the class of planar bipartite graphs of maximum degree three and arbitrarily large girth. Also, the problem remains NP-complete for the class of planar line graphs with maximum degree four. Moreover, we study the parameterized complexity of the problem. In particular, we prove that the problem is W[1]-hard on bipartite graphs with respect to the parameter k. On the other hand, the problem is fixed parameter tractable with respect to the parameters tw and (k, c4), where tw and c4 are the treewidth and the number of cycles with length 4 of the input graph. We also prove that the problem is fixed parameter tractable with respect to the parameter k for the line graphs and every proper minor-closed class of graphs (including planar graphs).
