Polynomial Kernels for Hard Problems on Disk Graphs
[chapter]
2010
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Finally we prove that H-Matching on unit-disk graphs has a linear-vertex kernel for every fixed graph H. ...
Recent breakthroughs show that many graph problems admit small polynomial kernels when restricted to sparse graph classes such as planar graphs, bounded-genus graphs or H-minor-free graphs. ...
Acknowledgements I would like to thank Manu Basavaraju, Hans Bodlaender, Marc van Kreveld, Erik Jan van Leeuwen and Jan van Leeuwen for insightful discussions. ...

Axioms
Given an integer k ≥ 2, a k-path is a path on k vertices. A set of vertices in a graph G is called a k-path vertex cover if it includes at least one vertex of every k-path of G. ...
In the k-path vertex cover problem, the goal is to find a minimum k-path vertex cover in a given graph. ...

Geometric separation and exact solutions for the parameterized independent set problem on disk graphs
2004
Journal of Algorithms
The results are based on a new "geometric 0-separator theorem" which holds for all disk graphs of bounded radius. ...
The presented algorithm then performs, in a first step, a "geometric problem kernelization" and, in a second step, uses divide-and-conquer based on our geometric separator theorem. ...
We thank Thomas Erlebach and Rolf Niedermeier for introducing us to the problem and for fruitful discussion and valuable comments ...

Alternative parameterizations of Metric Dimension

arXiv
pre-print
Our reduction also gives evidence for non-existence of polynomial Turing kernels. ...
The Metric Dimension problem, i.e. deciding whether md(G)< k, is NP-complete even for interval graphs (Foucaud et al., 2017). ...
Hoffmann and Wanke [19] extended the tractability results to a subclass of unit disk graphs, while Foucaud et al. [12] showed that this problem is NP-complete on interval graphs. ...
