摘要:
著名的重要分隔符概念在技术意义上限制了图中“离 $S$ 最远”的小型 $(S,T)$-分隔符的数量。本文引入这一强大算法原语的推广,其表述基于 $k$-隔离顶点集:即开放邻域大小至多为 $k$ 的集合。在此术语下,关于重要分隔符的界表明,至多有 $4^k$ 个极大的 $k$-隔离连通顶点集 $C$,它们包含 $S$ 且与 $T$ 不相交。我们显著推广了这一陈述:即使要求 $G[C]$ 避开一个有限的禁用诱导子图集合 $\mathcal{F}$,此类极大子图的数量仍为 $2^{O(k)}$,并且可以被高效枚举。这使我们能够对文献中的两个问题做出显著改进。我们的第一个应用涉及“连通 $k$-隔离 $\mathcal{F}$-无关于图”问题,其中 $\mathcal{F}$ 是一个有限的禁用诱导子图集合。给定一个每个顶点具有正整数权重的图,该问题要求找到一个最大权重的连通 $k$-隔离顶点集 $C \subseteq V(G)$,使得 $G[C]$ 不包含与任何 $F \in \mathcal{F}$ 同构的诱导子图。以 $k$ 为参数的问题已知可通过递归理解技术在三重指数时间内求解,我们将其改进为单指数时间。我们的第二个应用涉及删除至分散图类的问题。这里,任务是找到一个大小至多为 $k$ 的顶点集,其删除后所得图的每个连通分量都属于指定的图类 $\Pi_1, \ldots, \Pi_d$ 之一。当每个类 $\Pi_i$ 由有限数量的禁用诱导子图刻画时,我们得到了一个单指数算法。这推广并改进了文献中的早期结果。
英文摘要:
The celebrated notion of important separators bounds the number of small $(S,T)$-separators in a graph which are 'farthest from $S$' in a technical sense. In this paper, we introduce a generalization of this powerful algorithmic primitive that is phrased in terms of $k$-secluded vertex sets: sets with an open neighborhood of size at most $k$. In this terminology, the bound on important separators says that there are at most $4^k$ maximal $k$-secluded connected vertex sets $C$ containing $S$ but disjoint from $T$. We generalize this statement significantly: even when we demand that $G[C]$ avoids a finite set $\mathcal{F}$ of forbidden induced subgraphs, the number of such maximal subgraphs is $2^{O(k)}$ and they can be enumerated efficiently. This allows us to make significant improvements for two problems from the literature. Our first application concerns the 'Connected $k$-Secluded $\mathcal{F}$-free subgraph' problem, where $\mathcal{F}$ is a finite set of forbidden induced subgraphs. Given a graph in which each vertex has a positive integer weight, the problem asks to find a maximum-weight connected $k$-secluded vertex set $C \subseteq V(G)$ such that $G[C]$ does not contain an induced subgraph isomorphic to any $F \in \mathcal{F}$. The parameterization by $k$ is known to be solvable in triple-exponential time via the technique of recursive understanding, which we improve to single-exponential. Our second application concerns the deletion problem to scattered graph classes. Here, the task is to find a vertex set of size at most $k$ whose removal yields a graph whose each connected component belongs to one of the prescribed graph classes $Π_1, \ldots, Π_d$. We obtain a single-exponential algorithm whenever each class $Π_i$ is characterized by a finite number of forbidden induced subgraphs. This generalizes and improves upon earlier results in the literature.
