Bipartizing (pseudo-) disk graphs: Approximation with a ratio better than 3

D Lokshtanov, F Panolan, S Saurabh, J Xue… - arxiv preprint arxiv …, 2024 - arxiv.org
In a disk graph, every vertex corresponds to a disk in $\mathbb {R}^ 2$ and two vertices are
connected by an edge whenever the two corresponding disks intersect. Disk graphs form an …

Excluded grid minors and efficient polynomial-time approximation schemes

FV Fomin, D Lokshtanov, S Saurabh - Journal of the ACM (JACM), 2018 - dl.acm.org
Two of the most widely used approaches to obtain polynomial-time approximation schemes
(PTASs) on planar graphs are the Lipton-Tarjan separator-based approach and Baker's …

True contraction decomposition and almost eth-tight bipartization for unit-disk graphs

S Bandyapadhyay, W Lochet, D Lokshtanov… - ACM Transactions on …, 2024 - dl.acm.org
We prove a structural theorem for unit-disk graphs, which (roughly) states that given a set of
unit disks inducing a unit-disk graph and a number, one can partition into subsets such that …

Optimality program in segment and string graphs

É Bonnet, P Rzążewski - Algorithmica, 2019 - Springer
Planar graphs are known to allow subexponential algorithms running in time 2^ O (n) 2 O (n)
or 2^ O (n\log n) 2 O (n log n) for most of the paradigmatic problems, while the brute-force …

Hyperbolic intersection graphs and (quasi)-polynomial time

S Kisfaludi-Bak - Proceedings of the Fourteenth Annual ACM-SIAM …, 2020 - SIAM
We study unit ball graphs (and, more generally, so-called noisy uniform ball graphs) in d-
dimensional hyperbolic space, which we denote by ℍ d. Using a new separator theorem, we …

Contraction Decomposition in Unit Disk Graphs and Algorithmic Applications in Parameterized Complexity

F Panolan, S Saurabh, M Zehavi - ACM Transactions on Algorithms, 2024 - dl.acm.org
