Disjoint Paths and Connected Subgraphs for H-Free Graphs
Walter Kern, Barnaby Martin, Daniël Paulusma +2
The well-known Disjoint Paths problem is to decide if a graph contains k pairwise disjoint paths, each connecting a different terminal pair from a set of k distinct pairs. We deter…
Acyclic, Star, and Injective Colouring: Bounding the Diameter
Christoph Brause, Petr Golovach, Barnaby Martin +3
We examine the effect of bounding the diameter for well-studied variants of the Colouring problem. A colouring is acyclic, star, or injective if any two colour classes induce a for…
Colouring Graphs of Bounded Diameter in the Absence of Small Cycles
Barnaby Martin, Daniel Paulusma, Siani Smith
For , a -colouring of is a mapping from to such that for any two non-adjacent vertices and . The -Colouring…
Hard Problems That Quickly Become Very Easy
Barnaby Martin, Daniël Paulusma, Siani Smith
A graph class is hereditary if it is closed under vertex deletion. We give examples of NP-hard, PSPACE-complete and NEXPTIME-complete problems that become constant-time solvable fo…
