Bidimensionality and Kernels
[chapter]
2010
Proceedings of the Twenty-First Annual ACM-SIAM Symposium on Discrete Algorithms
We show that "essentially" all bidimensional problems not only have sub-exponential time algorithms and PTASs but they also have linear kernels, affirmatively answering an open question from [J. ...
Demaine and Hajiaghayi [SODA 2005 ] extended the theory to obtain polynomial time approximation schemes (PTASs) for bidimensional problems. ...

An EPTAS is simply an FPT algorithm with respect to this parameter. ...
An optimization problem admits a PTAS if and only if there is an algorithm Φ, that, given an input of size n, and a parameter value k = 1/ , produces a solution that is within a multiplicative factor of ...
In §2, we introduce the necessary concepts from parameterized complexity theory and establish the connection between an EPTAS and parameterized tractability. ...
