: Truly Linear FPT

Benjamin Merlin Bumpus, Rod Downey, Tala Eagling-Vose +7

Parameterized complexity has always been concerned with practical computing: by confining combinatorial explosion to a secondary parameter , one can uncover why and how many NP-…

Steiner Forest for -Subgraph-Free Graphs

Tala Eagling-Vose, David C. Kutner, Felicia Lucke +4

Our main result is a full classification, for every connected graph , of the computational complexity of Steiner Forest on -subgraph-free graphs. To obtain this dichotomy, we…

Better late, then? The hardness of choosing delays to meet passenger demands in temporal graphs

David C. Kutner, Anouk Sommer

In train networks, carefully-chosen delays may be beneficial for certain passengers, who would otherwise miss some connection. Given a simple (directed or undirected) temporal grap…

Generalising the maximum independent set algorithm via Boolean networks

Maximilien Gadouleau, David C. Kutner

A simple greedy algorithm to find a maximal independent set (MIS) in a graph starts with the empty set and visits every vertex, adding it to the set if and only if none of its neig…

Reconfigurable routing in data center networks

David C. Kutner, Iain A. Stewart

A hybrid network is a static (electronic) network that is augmented with optical switches. The Reconfigurable Routing Problem (RRP) in hybrid networks is the problem of finding set…

Payment Scheduling in the Interval Debt Model

Tom Friedetzky, David C. Kutner, George B. Mertzios +2

The network-based study of financial systems has received considerable attention in recent years but has seldom explicitly incorporated the dynamic aspects of such systems. We cons…
