AI总结:

研究针对不含长爪的图中的最大权独立集问题,提出了一种改进的亚指数时间算法和近似方案,基于Gyárfás路径论证的类比方法。

摘要:

我们重新审视了最近关于在排除诱导子图细分爪$S_{t,t,t}$的图中最大权独立集问题的发展[Chudnovsky, Pilipczuk, Pilipczuk, Thomassé, SODA 2020],并提供了一个亚指数时间算法,其运行时间为$2^{\mathcal{O}(\sqrt{n}\log n)}$,以及一个具有改进运行时间$2^{\mathcal{O}(\varepsilon^{-1} \log^{5} n)}$的近似方案。Gyárfás的路径论证是一种强大的工具,是许多$P_t$自由图算法的主要构建块,它确保给定一个有$n$个顶点的$P_t$自由图,在多项式时间内可以找到一个最多有$t-1$个顶点的集合$P$,使得$G-N[P]$的每个连通组件有至多$n/2$个顶点。我们的主要技术贡献是为$S_{t,t,t}$自由图提供了一个此类结果的类比:给定一个有$n$个顶点的$S_{t,t,t}$自由图,在多项式时间内可以找到一个最多有$\mathcal{O}(t \log n)$个顶点的集合$P$,以及一个扩展的条带分解(一个适当的类比于分解为连通组件的分解),使得所述扩展条带分解的每个粒子(一个适当的类比于连通组件以递归)有至多$n/2$个顶点。

英文摘要:

We revisit recent developments for the Maximum Weight Independent Set problem in graphs excluding a subdivided claw $S_{t,t,t}$ as an induced subgraph [Chudnovsky, Pilipczuk, Pilipczuk, Thomassé, SODA 2020] and provide a subexponential-time algorithm with improved running time $2^{\mathcal{O}(\sqrt{n}\log n)}$ and a quasipolynomial-time approximation scheme with improved running time $2^{\mathcal{O}(\varepsilon^{-1} \log^{5} n)}$. The Gyárfás' path argument, a powerful tool that is the main building block for many algorithms in $P_t$-free graphs, ensures that given an $n$-vertex $P_t$-free graph, in polynomial time we can find a set $P$ of at most $t-1$ vertices, such that every connected component of $G-N[P]$ has at most $n/2$ vertices. Our main technical contribution is an analog of this result for $S_{t,t,t}$-free graphs: given an $n$-vertex $S_{t,t,t}$-free graph, in polynomial time we can find a set $P$ of $\mathcal{O}(t \log n)$ vertices and an extended strip decomposition (an appropriate analog of the decomposition into connected components) of $G-N[P]$ such that every particle (an appropriate analog of a connected component to recurse on) of the said extended strip decomposition has at most $n/2$ vertices.
