Characterizing the optimum bases of a convex geometry using quasi-closed hypergraphs

Anthony Meunier, Lhouari Nourine, Simon Vilmin

Optimizing an implicational base of a closure system consists in turning this implicational base into an equivalent one with premises and conclusions as small as possible. This tas…

Generating minimal redundant and maximal irredundant sets in incidence graphs

Emanuel Castelo, Jérémie Chalopin, Oscar Defrain +1

It has been proved by Boros and Makino that there is no output-polynomial-time algorithm enumerating the minimal redundant sets or the maximal irredundant sets of a hypergraph, unl…

Translating between the representations of an acyclic convex geometry of bounded degree

Oscar Defrain, Arthur Ohana, Simon Vilmin

We consider the problem of translating between irreducible closed sets and implicational bases in closure systems. To date, the complexity status of this problem is widely open, an…

On the -base of Finite Lattices: Semidistributive, Modular, and Geometric Lattices

Kira Adaricheva, Simon Vilmin

Implicational bases are a well-known representation of closure spaces and their closure lattices. This representation is not unique, though, and a closure space usually admits mult…

Half-space separation in monophonic convexity

Mohammed Elaroussi, Lhouari Nourine, Simon Vilmin

We study half-space separation in the convexity of chordless paths of a graph, i.e., monophonic convexity. In this problem, one is given a graph and two (disjoint) subsets of verti…

Computing the -base and -relation in finite closure systems

Kira Adaricheva, Lhouari Nourine, Simon Vilmin

Implicational bases (IBs) are a common representation of finite closure systems and lattices, along with meet-irreducible elements. They appear in a wide variety of fields ranging…
