Induced matchings in asteroidal triple-free graphs
2003
Discrete Applied Mathematics
The problem of ÿnding a maximum induced matching is known to be NP-hard even for bipartite graphs of maximum degree four. ...
In this paper, we study the maximum induced matching problem on classes of graphs related to AT-free graphs. ...
The maximum induced matching problem is that of ÿnding an induced matching with the maximum cardinality in a graph G (see Fig. 1 ). ...

Augmenting graphs for independent sets
2004
Discrete Applied Mathematics
We consider a general approach to solve the maximum independent set problem based on ÿnding augmenting graphs. For some special classes of graphs, the approach provides polynomial solutions. ...
We also discuss some open questions related to the notion of augmenting graphs. ...
Obviously, the independent set problem in L is equivalent to the problem of ÿnding a maximum matching (independent set of edges) in graph G. ...

Clique separator decomposition of hole-free and diamond-free graphs and algorithmic consequences
2012
Discrete Applied Mathematics
This yields efficient algorithms for various optimization problems in this class of graphs. ...
We show that every (hole, paraglider)-free graph admits a clique separator decomposition into graphs of three very specific types. ...
In a complete multipartite graph there is no induced matching of size 2, and in a matched co-bipartite graph there is no induced matching of size 3, so in either class the search for a maximum weight induced ...

On the Complexity of Dissociation Set Problems in Graphs
2009
IFAC Proceedings Volumes
The complexity of finding a dissociation set of maximum size in line graphs and finding a maximal dissociation set of minimum size in general graphs is considered. ...
A subset of vertices in a graph is called a dissociation set if it induces a subgraph with vertex degree at most 1. A dissociation set D is maximal if no other dissociation set contains D. ...
The maximum cardinality of an induced matching of G is the induced matching number, and it is denoted by ) (G Σ . Brandstädt et al., (1999) . ...

Statistical matching and subclassification with a continuous dose: characterization, algorithm, and application to a health outcomes study
[article]
2022
arXiv
pre-print
We discuss how to incorporate dose and use appropriate penalties to control the number of subclasses in the design. ...
In this article, we propose two criteria for optimal subclassification based on subclass homogeneity in the context of having a continuous exposure dose, and propose an efficient polynomial-time algorithm ...
In the context of non-bipartite matching with a continuous dose, we may also want to have some control over the size of subclasses and hence how many subclasses in a subclassification. ...

Discrete Applied Mathematics
We give a O(nm) time algorithm for the maximum weight stable set (MWS) problem on P5-and co-chair-free graphs without recognizing whether the (arbitrary) input graph is P5and co-chair-free. ...
This algorithm is based on the fact that prime P5-and co-chair-free graphs containing 2K2 are matched co-bipartite graphs and thus have very simple structure, and for 2K2-free graphs, there is a polynomial ...
