On Algorithmic Meta-Theorems for Solution Discovery: Tractability and Barriers
Nicolas Bousquet, Amer E. Mouawad, Stephanie Maaz +2
Solution discovery asks whether a given (infeasible) starting configuration to a problem can be transformed into a feasible solution using a limited number of transformation steps.…
On the complexity of constrained reconfiguration and motion planning
Nicolas Bousquet, Remy El Sabeh, Amer E. Mouawad +1
Coordinating the motion of multiple agents in constrained environments is a fundamental challenge in robotics, motion planning, and scheduling. A motivating example involves ro…
The tape reconfiguration problem and its consequences for dominating set reconfiguration
Nicolas Bousquet, Quentin Deschamps, Arnaud Mary +2
A dominating set of a graph is a set of vertices whose closed neighborhood is , i.e., . We view a dominating set as a collection of tokens plac…
Parameterized Shortest Path Reconfiguration
Nicolas Bousquet, Kshitij Gajjar, Abhiruk Lahiri +1
An st-shortest path, or st-path for short, in a graph G is a shortest (induced) path from s to t in G. Two st-paths are said to be adjacent if they differ on exactly one vertex. A…
