The Parameterized Complexity of Computing the VC-Dimension

Florent Foucaud, Harmender Gahlawat, Fionn Mc Inerney +1

The VC-dimension is a well-studied and fundamental complexity measure of a set system (or hypergraph) that is central to many areas of machine learning. We establish several new re…

A Structural Complexity Analysis of Hierarchical Task Network Planning

Cornelius Brand, Robert Ganian, Fionn Mc Inerney +1

We perform a refined complexity-theoretic analysis of three classical problems in the context of Hierarchical Task Network Planning: the verification of a provided plan, whether an…

Problems in NP can Admit Double-Exponential Lower Bounds when Parameterized by Treewidth or Vertex Cover

Florent Foucaud, Esther Galby, Liana Khazaliya +4

Treewidth (tw) is an important parameter that, when bounded, yields tractability for many problems. For example, graph problems expressible in Monadic Second Order (MSO) logic and…

Tight Complexity Bounds for Counting Generalized Dominating Sets in Bounded-Treewidth Graphs Part II: Hardness Results

Jacob Focke, Dániel Marx, Fionn Mc Inerney +4

For a well-studied family of domination-type problems, in bounded-treewidth graphs, we investigate whether it is possible to find faster algorithms. For sets of non-negative…

A method for eternally dominating strong grids

Alizée Gagnon, Alexander Hassler, Jerry Huang +5

In the eternal domination game, an attacker attacks a vertex at each turn and a team of guards must move a guard to the attacked vertex to defend it. The guards may only move to ad…
