[BOOK][B] Graph structure and monadic second-order logic: a language-theoretic approach

B Courcelle, J Engelfriet - 2012 - books.google.com
The study of graph structure has advanced in recent years with great strides: finite graphs
can be described algebraically, enabling them to be constructed out of more basic elements …

Twin-width VI: the lens of contraction sequences∗

É Bonnet, EJ Kim, A Reinald, S Thomassé - … of the 2022 Annual ACM-SIAM …, 2022 - SIAM
A contraction sequence of a graph consists of iteratively merging two of its vertices until only
one vertex remains. The recently introduced twin-width graph invariant is based on …

Fast FPT-approximation of branchwidth

FV Fomin, T Korhonen - Proceedings of the 54th Annual ACM SIGACT …, 2022 - dl.acm.org
Branchwidth determines how graphs, and more generally, arbitrary connectivity (basically
symmetric and submodular) functions could be decomposed into a tree-like structure by …

Practical algorithms for MSO model-checking on tree-decomposable graphs

A Langer, F Reidl, P Rossmanith, S Sikdar - Computer Science Review, 2014 - Elsevier
In this survey, we review practical algorithms for graph-theoretic problems that are
expressible in monadic second-order logic. Monadic second-order (MSO) logic allows …

Boolean-width of graphs

BM Bui-Xuan, JA Telle, M Vatshelle - Theoretical Computer Science, 2011 - Elsevier
We introduce the graph parameter boolean-width, related to the number of different unions
of neighborhoods–Boolean sums of neighborhoods–across a cut of a graph. For many …

Improving vertex cover as a graph parameter

R Ganian - Discrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer …, 2015 - dmtcs.episciences.org
Parameterized algorithms are often used to efficiently solve NP-hard problems on graphs. In
this context, vertex cover is used as a powerful parameter for dealing with graph problems …

Distributed certification for classes of dense graphs

P Fraigniaud, F Mazoit, P Montealegre… - arxiv preprint arxiv …, 2023 - arxiv.org
A proof-labeling scheme (PLS) for a boolean predicate $\Pi $ on labeled graphs is a
mechanism used for certifying the legality with respect to $\Pi $ of global network states in a …

Transforming graph states using single-qubit operations

A Dahlberg, S Wehner - Philosophical Transactions of …, 2018 - royalsocietypublishing.org
Stabilizer states form an important class of states in quantum information, and are of central
importance in quantum error correction. Here, we provide an algorithm for deciding whether …

[HTML][HTML] Measuring what matters: A hybrid approach to dynamic programming with treewidth

E Eiben, R Ganian, T Hamm, O Kwon - Journal of Computer and System …, 2021 - Elsevier
We develop a framework for applying treewidth-based dynamic programming on graphs
with “hybrid structure”, ie, with parts that may not have small treewidth but instead possess …

Slim tree-cut width

R Ganian, V Korchemna - Algorithmica, 2024 - Springer
Tree-cut width is a parameter that has been introduced as an attempt to obtain an analogue
of treewidth for edge cuts. Unfortunately, in spite of its desirable structural properties, it …
