Contraction checking in graphs on surfaces

Authors: Marcin Kaminski and Dimitrios M. Thilikos

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 14, 29th International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2012)


Abstract
The Contraction Checking problem asks, given two graphs H and G as input, whether H can be obtained from G by a sequence of edge contractions. Contraction Checking remains NP-complete, even when H is fixed. We show that this is not the case when G is embeddable in a surface of fixed Euler genus. In particular, we give an algorithm that solves Contraction Checking in f(h,g)*|V(G)|^3 steps, where h is the size of H and g is the Euler genus of the input graph G.

The k-in-a-path Problem for Claw-free Graphs

Authors: Jiri Fiala, Marcin Kaminski, Bernard Lidický, and Daniël Paulusma

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 5, 27th International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (2010)


Abstract
Testing whether there is an induced path in a graph spanning $k$ given vertices is already \NP-complete in general graphs when $k=3$. We show how to solve this problem in polynomial time on claw-free graphs, when $k$ is not part of the input but an arbitrarily fixed integer.
