How to Fix a Broken Metric: A Linear Kernel, Tight Bounds, and Tree Metrics

Sayan Bandyapadhyay, William Lochet, Daniel Lokshtanov +4

Given a complete graph whose edge weights represent dissimilarities, Metric Violation Distance asks whether at most weights can be changed to form a metric. Motivated by metric…

Single-Exponential Algorithms for Directed Feedback Vertex Set on Planar Digraphs

Daniel Lokshtanov, Saket Saurabh, Jie Xue

We consider Directed Feedback Vertex Set on planar digraphs, parameterized by the solution size . We give a randomized algorithm with one-sided error running in time $(2+\sqrt5)…

Forbidden Subgraphs of Graphs with Low Bandwidth

Maria Chudnovsky, Daniel Lokshtanov, Eran Nevo

A layout of a graph G is an injective function , and the bandwidth of a layout f is . The bandwidth bw(G) of G is…

Covering Points with Rectangular Boundaries

Madhumita Kundu, Daniel Lokshtanov, Soumi Nandi +2

Geometric covering problems ask for a small family of geometric objects whose union covers a given point set. We study the more restrictive \emph{boundary covering} variant, where…

Courcelle's Theorem in Truly Linear FPT

Tuukka Korhonen, Daniel Lokshtanov, Saket Saurabh

Recently, Bumpus, Downey, Eagling-Vose, Enright, Fellows, Kutner, Larios-Jones, Martin, Rosamond, and Yates defined Truly Linear FPT (TLFPT) to be the class of parameterized proble…

Fine-Grained Bounds for Courcelle's Theorem

Daniel Lokshtanov, Fahad Panolan, Saket Saurabh +2

Courcelle's theorem states that there exists an algorithm that takes as input a graph of treewidth at most and a MSO formula , and determines whether satisfies i…
