Nowhere dense graph classes, stability, and the independence property
[article]
2010
arXiv
pre-print
For subgraph-closed classes of graphs we prove equivalence to stability and to not having the independence property. ...
A class of graphs is nowhere dense if for every integer r there is a finite upper bound on the size of cliques that occur as (topological) r-minors. ...
For subgraph-closed classes of graphs we show that nowhere density is equivalent to stability and to dependence (not having the independence property). ...

Interpreting nowhere dense graph classes as a classical notion of model theory
2014
European journal of combinatorics (Print)
For subgraph-closed classes of graphs we prove equivalence to stability and to not having the independence property. ...
Expressed in terms of PAC learning, the concept classes definable in first-order logic in a subgraph-closed graph class have bounded sample complexity, if and only if the class is nowhere dense. ...
All these graph classes are nowhere dense. Dawar and Kreutzer [4] gave efficient algorithms for domination problems on classes of nowhere dense graphs. ...

Combinatorial and Algorithmic Aspects of Monadic Stability

for the independent set and dominating set problems in powers of nowhere dense classes. ...
Nowhere dense classes of graphs are classes of sparse graphs with rich structural and algorithmic properties, however, they fail to capture even simple classes of dense graphs. ...
Therefore the first property follows trivially from the monadic stability of nowhere dense classes. The second property was proved by Fabiański et al. in [12, Theorem 11] . ...

Properties of nowhere dense graph classes related to independent set problem
[article]
2019
arXiv
pre-print
In this work we present an algorithm for this problem, which applied to a graph from any fixed nowhere dense class, works in time bounded by f(k, r)*G, for some function f. ...
In the r-independent set problem with parameter k, we ask whether in a given graph G there exists an r-independent set of size k. ...
Classes of nowhere dense graphs were introduced by Nešetřil and Ossona de Mendez in [8] and generalize many known families of sparse graphs, for example the following classes are nowhere dense: graphs ...

Kernelization and approximation of distance-r independent sets on nowhere dense graphs
[article]
2020
arXiv

We study the duality between the maximum size of a distance-2r independent set and the minimum size of a distance-r dominating set in nowhere dense graph classes, as well as the kernelization complexity ...
Specifically, we prove that the distance-r independent set problem admits an almost linear kernel on every nowhere dense graph class. ...

The cases when C is a power of a nowhere dense class and when C is the class of map graphs follow as simple corollaries from the result for nowhere dense classes. ...

We study the FO model checking problem for dense graph classes definable by geometric means (intersection and visibility graphs). ...
