Some remarks on the uncolored versions of the original CFI-graphs

Yijia Chen, Jörg Flum, Mingjun Liu

The CFI-graphs, named after Cai, Fürer, and Immerman, are central to the study of the graph isomorphism testing and of first-order logic with counting. They are colored graphs, and…

Simple Combinatorial Construction of the -Lower Bound for Approximating the Parameterized -Clique

Yijia Chen, Yi Feng, Bundit Laekhanukit +1

In the parameterized -clique problem, or -Clique for short, we are given a graph and a parameter . The goal is to decide whether there exist vertices in t…

On Algorithms Based on Finitely Many Homomorphism Counts

Yijia Chen, Jörg Flum, Mingjun Liu +1

It is well known [Lovász, 67] that up to isomorphism a graph~ is determined by the homomorphism counts , i.e., the number of homomorphisms from to , where …

Game-theoretic analysis of Guts Poker

Luca Castornova, Yijia Chen, Kevin Zumbrun

We carry out a game-theoretic analysis of the recursive game "Guts," a variant of poker featuring repeated play with possibly growing stakes. An interesting aspect of such games is…

The Complexity of Limited Belief Reasoning -- The Quantifier-Free Case

Yijia Chen, Abdallah Saffidine, Christoph Schwering

The classical view of epistemic logic is that an agent knows all the logical consequences of their knowledge base. This assumption of logical omniscience is often unrealistic and m…

Slicewise definability in first-order logic with bounded quantifier rank

Yijia Chen, Joerg Flum, Xuangui Huang

For every let denote the class of sentences of first-order logic FO of quantifier rank at most . If a graph property can be defined in $\textrm{…

The Hardness of Embedding Grids and Walls

Yijia Chen, Martin Grohe, Bingkai Lin

The dichotomy conjecture for the parameterized embedding problem states that the problem of deciding whether a given graph from some class of "pattern graphs" can be embedd…

The parameterized space complexity of model-checking bounded variable first-order logic

Yijia Chen, Michael Elberfeld, Moritz Müller

The parameterized model-checking problem for a class of first-order sentences (queries) asks to decide whether a given sentence from the class holds true in a given relational stru…

Some lower bounds in parameterized

Yijia Chen, Joerg Flum

We demonstrate some lower bounds for parameterized problems via parameterized classes corresponding to the classical . Among others, we derive such a lower bound for al…

The Constant Inapproximability of the Parameterized Dominating Set Problem

Yijia Chen, Bingkai Lin

We prove that there is no fpt-algorithm that can approximate the dominating set problem with any constant ratio, unless FPT= W[1]. Our hardness reduction is built on the second aut…

The parameterized complexity of k-edge induced subgraphs

Bingkai Lin, Yijia Chen

We prove that finding a -edge induced subgraph is fixed-parameter tractable, thereby answering an open problem of Leizhen Cai. Our algorithm is based on several combinatorial ob…
