稀疏图中k点覆盖多(少)边的问题

Covering Many (or Few) Edges with k Vertices in Sparse Graphs

Tomohiro Koana, Christian Komusiewicz, André Nichterlein, Frank Sommer

摘要:

我们研究以下两个固定基数优化问题(最大化和最小化变体)。对于一个固定的$α$在0和1之间,我们给出了一个图和两个数字$k \in \mathbb{N}$和$t \in \mathbb{Q}$。该任务是找到一个顶点子集$S$正好$k$顶点,具有值至少(分别)。最多最小化)$t$。这里,顶点集的值计算为$α$乘以$S$中具有恰好一个端点的边的数量加上$1-α$乘以$S$中具有两个端点的边的数量。这两个问题推广了许多著名的图的问题,如Denmark $k$ -Subgraph,Sparmark $k$ -Subgraph,Partial Vertex Cover,Max($k$,$n-k$)-Cut.在这项工作中,我们完成了几种类型的稀疏图的结构参数描述的参数化复杂性的图片。特别是,我们提供核化算法和核下界这些问题。我们的核化的一个有点令人惊讶的结果是,部分顶点覆盖和最大$(k,n-k)$ -切割不仅表现在相同的方式,但这两个问题的核可以通过相同的算法获得。

英文摘要:

We study the following two fixed-cardinality optimization problems (a maximization and a minimization variant). For a fixed $α$ between zero and one we are given a graph and two numbers $k \in \mathbb{N}$ and $t \in \mathbb{Q}$. The task is to find a vertex subset $S$ of exactly $k$ vertices that has value at least (resp. at most for minimization) $t$. Here, the value of a vertex set computes as $α$ times the number of edges with exactly one endpoint in $S$ plus $1-α$ times the number of edges with both endpoints in $S$. These two problems generalize many prominent graph problems, such as Densest $k$-Subgraph, Sparsest $k$-Subgraph, Partial Vertex Cover, and Max ($k$,$n-k$)-Cut. In this work, we complete the picture of their parameterized complexity on several types of sparse graphs that are described by structural parameters. In particular, we provide kernelization algorithms and kernel lower bounds for these problems. A somewhat surprising consequence of our kernelizations is that Partial Vertex Cover and Max $(k,n-k)$-Cut not only behave in the same way but that the kernels for both problems can be obtained by the same algorithms.
