Reducing the Vertex Cover Number via Edge Contractions
Paloma T. Lima, Vinicius F. dos Santos, Ignasi Sau +2
The CONTRACTION(vc) problem takes as input a graph on vertices and two integers and , and asks whether one can contract at most edges to reduce the size of a min…
On structural parameterizations of the selective coloring problem
Guilherme C. M. Gomes, Vinicius F. dos Santos
In the Selective Coloring problem, we are given an integer , a graph , and a partition of into parts, and the goal is to decide whether or not we can pick exactly…
Dual parameterization of Weighted Coloring
Júlio Araújo, Victor A. Campos, Carlos Vinícius G. C. Lima +3
Given a graph , a proper -coloring of is a partition of into stable sets . Given a weight function $w: V(G) \to \ma…
Characterization by forbidden induced subgraphs of some subclasses of chordal graphs
Sérgio H. Nogueira, Vinicius F. dos Santos
Chordal graphs are the graphs in which every cycle of length at least four has a chord. A set is a vertex separator for vertices and if the removal of of the graph…
