Density Matters: A Complexity Dichotomy of Deleting Edges to Bound Subgraph Density

Authors: Matthias Bentert, Tom-Lukas Breitkopf, Vincent Froese, Anton Herrmann, and André Nichterlein

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 364, 43rd International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2026)

Abstract
We study τ-Bounded-Density Edge Deletion (τ-BDED), where given an undirected graph G, the task is to remove as few edges as possible to obtain a graph G' where no subgraph of G' has density more than τ. The density of a (sub)graph is the number of edges divided by the number of vertices. This problem was recently introduced and shown to be NP-hard for τ ∈ {2/3, 3/4, 1 + 1/25}, but polynomial-time solvable for τ ∈ {0,1/2,1} [Bazgan et al., JCSS 2025]. We provide a complete dichotomy with respect to the target density τ: 1) If 2τ ∈ ℕ (half-integral target density) or τ < 2/3, then τ-BDED is polynomial-time solvable. 2) Otherwise, τ-BDED is NP-hard. We complement the NP-hardness with fixed-parameter tractability with respect to the treewidth of G. Moreover, for integral target density τ ∈ ℕ, we show τ-BDED to be solvable in randomized O(m^{1 + o(1)}) time. Our algorithmic results are based on a reduction to a new general flow problem on restricted networks that, depending on τ, can be solved via Maximum s-t-Flow or General Factors. We believe this connection between these variants of flow and matching to be of independent interest.

Protrusion Decompositions Revisited: Uniform Lossy Kernels for Reducing Treewidth and Linear Kernels for Hitting Disconnected Minors

Authors: Roohani Sharma and Michał Włodarczyk

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 364, 43rd International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2026)

Abstract
Let ℱ be a finite family of graphs. In the ℱ-Deletion problem, one is given a graph G and an integer k, and the goal is to find k vertices whose deletion results in a graph with no minor from the family ℱ. This may be regarded as a far-reaching generalization of Vertex Cover and Feedback vertex Set. In their seminal work, Fomin, Lokshtanov, Misra & Saurabh [FOCS 2012] gave a polynomial kernel for this problem when the family ℱ contains a planar graph. As the size of their kernel is g(ℱ) ⋅ k^{f(ℱ)}, a natural follow-up question was whether the dependence on ℱ in the exponent of k can be avoided. The answer turned out to be negative: Giannopoulou, Jansen, Lokshtanov & Saurabh [TALG 2017] proved that this is already inevitable for the special case of the Treewidth-η-Deletion problem. In this work, we show that this non-uniformity can be avoided at the expense of a small loss. First, we present a simple 2-approximate kernelization algorithm for Treewidth-η-Deletion with a kernel size g(η) ⋅ k⁶. Next, we show that the approximation factor can be made arbitrarily close to 1, if we settle for a kernelization protocol with 𝒪(1) calls to an oracle that solves instances of size bounded by a uniform polynomial in k. We extend the above results to general ℱ-Deletion, whenever ℱ contains a planar graph, as long as an oracle for Treewidth-η-Deletion is available for small instances. Notably, all our constants are computable functions of ℱ and our techniques work also when some graphs in ℱ may be disconnected. Our results rely on two novel techniques. First, we transform so-called "near-protrusion decompositions" into true protrusion decompositions by sacrificing a small accuracy loss. Secondly, we show how to optimally compress such a decomposition with respect to general ℱ-Deletion. Using our second technique, we also obtain linear kernels on sparse graph classes when ℱ contains a planar graph, whereas the previously known theorems required all graphs in ℱ to be connected. Specifically, we generalize the kernelization algorithm by Kim, Langer, Paul, Reidl, Rossmanith, Sau & Sikdar [TALG 2015] on graph classes that exclude a topological minor.

PACE Solver Description: UzL Solver for Dominating Set and Hitting Set

Authors: Max Bannach, Florian Chudigiewitsch, and Marcel Wienöbst

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 358, 20th International Symposium on Parameterized and Exact Computation (IPEC 2025)

Abstract
This document contains a short description of our solver for the dominating set and hitting set problems that we submitted to the exact tracks of the PACE Challenge 2025. The solver is based on a straightforward MaxSAT formulation supplemented by hitting-set-based reduction rules. It utilizes a clique solver if the reduced instance is a (small) input for the vertex cover problem and tries to match certain lower bounds by expressing the reduced instance as a sat problem.

Parameterized Maximum Node-Disjoint Paths

Authors: Michael Lampis and Manolis Vasilakis

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 358, 20th International Symposium on Parameterized and Exact Computation (IPEC 2025)

Abstract
We revisit the Maximum Node-Disjoint Paths problem, the natural optimization version of the famous Node-Disjoint Paths problem, where we are given an undirected graph G, k (demand) pairs of vertices (s_i, t_i), and an integer 𝓁, and are asked whether there exist at least 𝓁 vertex-disjoint paths in G whose endpoints are given pairs. This problem has been intensely studied from both the approximation and parameterized complexity point of view and is notably known to be intractable by standard structural parameters, such as tree-depth, as well as the combined parameter 𝓁 plus pathwidth. We present several results improving and clarifying this state of the art, with an emphasis towards FPT approximation. Our main positive contribution is to show that the problem’s intractability can be overcome using approximation: We show that for several of the structural parameters for which the problem is hard, most notably tree-depth, the problem admits an efficient FPT approximation scheme, returning a (1-ε)-approximate solution in time f(td,ε)n^𝒪(1). We manage to obtain these results by comprehensively mapping out the structural parameters for which the problem is FPT if 𝓁 is also a parameter, hence showing that understanding 𝓁 as a parameter is key to the problem’s approximability. This, in turn, is a problem we are able to solve via a surprisingly simple color-coding algorithm, which relies on identifying an insightful problem-specific variant of the natural parameter, namely the number of vertices used in the solution. The results above are quite encouraging, as they indicate that in some situations where the problem does not admit an FPT algorithm, it is still solvable almost to optimality in FPT time. A natural question is whether the FPT approximation algorithm we devised for tree-depth can be extended to pathwidth. We resolve this negatively, showing that under the Parameterized Inapproximability Hypothesis no FPT approximation scheme for this parameter is possible, even in time f(pw,ε)n^g(ε). We thus precisely determine the parameter border where the problem transitions from "hard but approximable" to "inapproximable". Lastly, we strengthen existing lower bounds by replacing W[1]-hardness by XNLP-completeness for parameter pathwidth, and improving the n^o(√{td}) ETH-based lower bound for tree-depth to (the optimal) n^o(td).

Bridging Treewidth and Clique-Width via Cograph-Modular-Treewidth

Authors: Václav Blažej, Satyabrata Jana, M. S. Ramanujan, and Peter Strulo

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 358, 20th International Symposium on Parameterized and Exact Computation (IPEC 2025)

Abstract
Many classical graph problems - such as Max Cut, Chromatic Number, Edge Dominating Set, and Hamiltonian Cycle - are polynomial-time solvable on cographs, fixed-parameter tractable (FPT) when parameterized by treewidth, but W[1]-hard when parameterized by clique-width. In contrast, Graph Isomorphism is FPT parameterized by treewidth, but for clique-width it is known to be in XP; whether it is FPT or W[1]-hard is open. This reveals a sharp tractability gap between treewidth and clique-width. In this work, we propose a new structural graph parameter, 𝒞-modular-treewidth, which lies between treewidth and clique-width. The parameter leverages modular decomposition and restricts modules to induce graphs from a fixed class 𝒞 (e.g., cographs or edgeless graphs). By exploiting true and false twins - a hallmark of cograph-like structure - our parameter allows the design of efficient algorithms for several hard problems beyond the reach of treewidth-based methods. In this work, we show that 𝒞-modular-treewidth enables efficient solutions under suitable choices of 𝒞, opening a new pathway in the parameterized complexity landscape between treewidth and clique-width. In particular we show that - When parameterized by cograph-modular-treewidth, Isomorphism admits an FPT algorithm, whereas Chromatic Number remains W[1]-hard. - When parameterized by independent-modular-treewidth, Hamiltonian Cycle and Edge Dominating Set remain W[1]-hard.

A Polynomial Delay Algorithm Generating All Potential Maximal Cliques in Triconnected Planar Graphs

Authors: Alexander Grigoriev, Yasuaki Kobayashi, Hisao Tamaki, and Tom C. van der Zanden

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 358, 20th International Symposium on Parameterized and Exact Computation (IPEC 2025)

Abstract
We develop a new characterization of potential maximal cliques of a triconnected planar graph and, using this characterization, give a polynomial delay algorithm generating all potential maximal cliques of a given triconnected planar graph. Combined with the dynamic programming algorithm due to Bouchitté and Todinca, this algorithm leads to a treewidth algorithm for general planar graphs that runs in time linear in the number of potential maximal cliques and polynomial in the number of vertices.

Parameterized Complexity of Vehicle Routing

Authors: Michelle Döring, Jan Fehse, Tobias Friedrich, Paula Marten, Niklas Mohrin, Kirill Simonov, Farehe Soheil, Jakob Timm, and Shaily Verma

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 358, 20th International Symposium on Parameterized and Exact Computation (IPEC 2025)

Abstract
The Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) is a popular generalization of the Traveling Salesperson Problem. Instead of one salesperson traversing the entire weighted, undirected graph G, there are k vehicles available to jointly cover the set of clients C ⊆ V(G). Every vehicle must start at one of the depot vertices D ⊆ V(G) and return to its start. Capacitated Vehicle Routing (CVRP) additionally restricts the route of each vehicle by limiting the number of clients it can cover, the distance it can travel, or both. In this work, we study the complexity of VRP and the three variants of CVRP for several parameterizations, in particular focusing on the treewidth of G. We present an FPT algorithm for VRP parameterized by treewidth. For CVRP, we prove paraNP- and W[⋅]-hardness for various parameterizations, including treewidth, thereby rendering the existence of FPT algorithms unlikely. In turn, we provide an XP algorithm for CVRP when parameterized by both treewidth and the vehicle capacity.

A Finer View of the Parameterized Landscape of Labeled Graph Contractions

Authors: Yashaswini Mathur and Prafullkumar Tale

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 360, 45th IARCS Annual Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (FSTTCS 2025)

Abstract
We study the Labeled Contractibility problem, where the input consists of two vertex-labeled graphs G and H, and the goal is to determine whether H can be obtained from G via a sequence of edge contractions. Lafond and Marchand [WADS 2025] initiated the parameterized complexity study of this problem, showing it to be W[1]-hard when parameterized by the number k of allowed contractions. They also proved that the problem is fixed-parameter tractable when parameterized by the tree-width tw of G, via an application of Courcelle’s theorem resulting in a non-constructive algorithm. In this work, we present a constructive fixed-parameter algorithm for Labeled Contractibility with running time 2^{𝒪(tw²)} ⋅ |V(G)|^{𝒪(1)}. We also prove that unless the Exponential Time Hypothesis ({ETH}) fails, it does not admit an algorithm running in time 2^{o(tw²)} ⋅ |V(G)|^{𝒪(1)}. This result adds Labeled Contractibility to a small list of problems that admit such a lower bound and matching algorithm. We further strengthen existing hardness results by showing that the problem remains NP-complete even when both input graphs have bounded maximum degree. We also investigate parameterizations by (k + δ(G)) where δ(G) denotes the degeneracy of G, and rule out the existence of subexponential-time algorithms. This answers question raised in Lafond and Marchand [WADS 2025]. We additionally provide an improved FPT algorithm with better dependence on (k + δ(G)) than previously known. Finally, we analyze a brute-force algorithm for Labeled Contractibility with running time |V(H)|^{𝒪(|V(G)|)}, and show that this running time is optimal under {ETH}.

Star-Based Separators for Intersection Graphs of c-Colored Pseudo-Segments

Authors: Mark de Berg, Bart M. P. Jansen, and Jeroen S. K. Lamme

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 359, 36th International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2025)

Abstract
The Planar Separator Theorem, which states that any planar graph 𝒢 has a separator consisting of O(√n) nodes whose removal partitions 𝒢 into components of size at most 2n/3, is a widely used tool to obtain fast algorithms on planar graphs. Intersection graphs of disks, which generalize planar graphs, do not admit such separators. It has recently been shown that disk graphs do admit so-called clique-based separators that consist of O(√n) cliques. This result has been generalized to intersection graphs of various other types of disk-like objects. Unfortunately, segment intersection graphs do not admit small clique-based separators, because they can contain arbitrarily large bicliques. This is true even in the simple case of axis-aligned segments. In this paper we therefore introduce biclique-based separators (and, in particular, star-based separators), which are separators consisting of a small number of bicliques (or stars). We prove that any c-oriented set of n segments in the plane, where c is a constant, admits a star-based separator consisting of O(√n) stars. In fact, our result is more general, as it applies to any set of n pseudo-segments that is partitioned into c subsets such that the pseudo-segments in the same subset are pairwise disjoint. We extend our result to intersection graphs of c-oriented polygons. These results immediately lead to an almost-exact distance oracle for such intersection graphs, which has O(n√n) storage and O(√n) query time, and that can report the hop-distance between any two query nodes in the intersection graph with an additive error of at most 2. This is the first distance oracle for such types of intersection graphs that has subquadratic storage and sublinear query time and that only has an additive error.

Graph Modification of Bounded Size to Minor-Closed Classes as Fast as Vertex Deletion

Authors: Laure Morelle, Ignasi Sau, and Dimitrios M. Thilikos

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 351, 33rd Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2025)

Abstract
A replacement action is a function ℒ that maps each graph H to a collection of graphs of size at most |V(H)|. Given a graph class ℋ, we consider a general family of graph modification problems, called ℒ-Replacement to ℋ, where the input is a graph G and the question is whether it is possible to replace some induced subgraph H₁ of G on at most k vertices by a graph H₂ in ℒ(H₁) so that the resulting graph belongs to ℋ. ℒ-Replacement to ℋ can simulate many graph modification problems including vertex deletion, edge deletion/addition/edition/contraction, vertex identification, subgraph complementation, independent set deletion, (induced) matching deletion/contraction, etc. We present two algorithms. The first one solves ℒ-Replacement to ℋ in time 2^poly(k) ⋅ |V(G)|² for every minor-closed graph class ℋ, where poly is a polynomial whose degree depends on ℋ, under a mild technical condition on ℒ. This generalizes the results of Morelle, Sau, Stamoulis, and Thilikos [ICALP 2020, ICALP 2023] for the particular case of Vertex Deletion to ℋ within the same running time. Our second algorithm is an improvement of the first one when ℋ is the class of graphs embeddable in a surface of Euler genus at most g and runs in time 2^𝒪(k⁹) ⋅ |V(G)|², where the 𝒪(⋅) notation depends on g. To the best of our knowledge, these are the first parameterized algorithms with a reasonable parametric dependence for such a general family of graph modification problems to minor-closed classes.

Courcelle’s Theorem for Lipschitz Continuity

Authors: Tatsuya Gima, Soh Kumabe, and Yuichi Yoshida

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 351, 33rd Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2025)

Abstract
Lipschitz continuity of algorithms, introduced by Kumabe and Yoshida (FOCS'23), measures the stability of an algorithm against small input perturbations. Algorithms with small Lipschitz continuity are desirable, as they ensure reliable decision-making and reproducible scientific research. Several studies have proposed Lipschitz continuous algorithms for various combinatorial optimization problems, but these algorithms are problem-specific, requiring a separate design for each problem. To address this issue, we provide the first algorithmic meta-theorem in the field of Lipschitz continuous algorithms. Our result can be seen as a Lipschitz continuous analogue of Courcelle’s theorem, which offers Lipschitz continuous algorithms for problems on bounded-treewidth graphs. Specifically, we consider the problem of finding a vertex set in a graph that maximizes or minimizes the total weight, subject to constraints expressed in monadic second-order logic (MSO₂). We show that for any ε > 0, there exists a (1±ε)-approximation algorithm for the problem with a polylogarithmic Lipschitz constant on bounded treewidth graphs. On such graphs, our result outperforms most existing Lipschitz continuous algorithms in terms of approximability and/or Lipschitz continuity. Further, we provide similar results for problems on bounded-clique-width graphs subject to constraints expressed in MSO₁. Additionally, we construct a Lipschitz continuous version of Baker’s decomposition using our meta-theorem as a subroutine.

Faster Dynamic 2-Edge Connectivity in Directed Graphs

Authors: Loukas Georgiadis, Konstantinos Giannis, and Giuseppe F. Italiano

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 351, 33rd Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2025)

Abstract
Let G be a directed graph with n vertices and m edges. We present a deterministic algorithm that maintains the 2-edge-connected components of G under a sequence of m edge insertions, with a total running time of O(n² log n). This significantly improves upon the previous best bound of O(mn) for graphs that are not very sparse. After each insertion, our algorithm supports the following queries with asymptotically optimal efficiency: - Test in constant time whether two query vertices v and w are 2-edge-connected in G. - Report in O(n) time all the 2-edge-connected components of G. Our approach builds on the recent framework of Georgiadis, Italiano, and Kosinas [FOCS 2024] for computing the 3-edge-connected components of a directed graph in linear time, which leverages the minset-poset technique of Gabow [TALG 2016]. Additionally, we provide a deterministic decremental algorithm for maintaining 2-edge-connectivity in strongly connected directed graphs. Given a sequence of m edge deletions, our algorithm maintains the 2-edge-connected components in total time n^(2+o(1)), while supporting the same queries as the incremental algorithm. This result assumes that the edges of a fixed spanning tree of G and of its reverse graph G^R are not deleted. Previously, the best known bound for the decremental problem was O(mn log n), obtained by a randomized algorithm without restrictions on the deletions. In contrast to prior dynamic algorithms for 2-edge-connectivity in directed graphs, our method avoids the incremental computation of dominator trees, thereby circumventing the known conditional lower bound of Ω(mn).

On Algorithmic Applications of ℱ-Branchwidth

Authors: Benjamin Bergougnoux, Thekla Hamm, Lars Jaffke, and Paloma T. Lima

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 351, 33rd Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2025)

Abstract
F-branchwidth is a framework for width measures of graphs, recently introduced by Eiben et al. [ITCS 2022], that captures tree-width, co-tree-width, clique-width, and mim-width, and several of their generalizations and interpolations. In this work, we search for algorithmic applications of F-branchwidth measures that do not have an equivalent counterpart in the literature so far. Our first contribution is a minimal set of eleven F-branchwidth measures such that each of the infinitely many F-branchwidth measures is equivalent to one of the eleven. We observe that for the FO Model Checking problem, each F-branchwidth is either equivalent to clique-width (and therefore has an FPT-algorithm by formula length plus the width) or the problem remains as hard as on general graphs even on graphs of constant width. Next, we study the number of equivalence classes of the neighborhood equivalence in a decomposition, which upper bounds the run time of the model checking algorithm for ACDN logic recently introduced by Bergougnoux et al. [SODA 2023]. We give structural lower bounds that show that for each F-branchwidth, an efficient model checking algorithm was already known or cannot be obtained via this method. Lastly, we classify the complexity of Independent Set parameterized by any F-branchwidth except for one open case. Also here, our contributions are lower bounds. In this context, we also prove that Independent Set on graphs of mim-width w cannot be solved in time n^o(w) unless the Exponential Time Hypothesis fails, answering an open question in the literature.

Parameterized Algorithms for Computing Pareto Sets

Authors: Joshua Marc Könen, Heiko Röglin, and Tarek Stuck

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 351, 33rd Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2025)

Abstract
The problem of computing the set of Pareto-optimal solutions has been studied for a variety of multiobjective optimization problems. For many such problems, algorithms are known that compute the Pareto set in (weak) output-polynomial time. These algorithms are often based on dynamic programming and by weak output-polynomial time, we mean that the running time depends polynomially on the size of the Pareto set but also on the sizes of the Pareto sets of the subproblems that occur in the dynamic program. For some problems, like the multiobjective minimum spanning tree problem, such algorithms are not known to exist and for other problems, like multiobjective versions of many NP-hard problems, such algorithms cannot exist, unless 𝒫 = 𝒩𝒫. Dynamic programming over tree decompositions is a common technique in parameterized algorithms. In this paper, we study whether this technique can also be applied to compute Pareto sets of multiobjective optimization problems. We first derive an algorithm to compute the Pareto set for the multicriteria s-t cut problem and show how this result can be applied to a polygon aggregation problem arising in cartography that has recently been introduced by Rottmann et al. (GIScience 2021). We also show how to apply these techniques to also compute the Pareto set of the multiobjective minimum spanning tree problem and for the multiobjective TSP. The running time of our algorithms is O(f(w)⋅poly(n,p_{max})), where f is some function in the treewidth w, n is the input size, and p_{max} is an upper bound on the size of the Pareto sets of the subproblems that occur in the dynamic program. Finally, we present an experimental evaluation of computing Pareto sets on real-world instances of polygon aggregation problems. For this matter we devised a task-specific data structure that allows for efficient storage and modification of large sets of Pareto-optimal solutions. Throughout the implementation process, we incorporated several improved strategies and heuristics that significantly reduced both runtime and memory usage, enabling us to solve instances with treewidth of up to 22 within reasonable amount of time. Moreover, we conducted a preprocessing study to compare different tree decompositions in terms of their estimated overall runtime.

Tight Bounds for Some Classical Problems Parameterized by Cutwidth

Authors: Narek Bojikian, Vera Chekan, and Stefan Kratsch

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 351, 33rd Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2025)

Abstract
Cutwidth is a widely studied parameter and it quantifies how well a graph can be decomposed along small edge-cuts. It complements pathwidth, which captures decomposition by small vertex separators, and it is well-known that cutwidth upper-bounds pathwidth. The SETH-tight parameterized complexity of problems on graphs of bounded pathwidth (and treewidth) has been actively studied over the past decade while for cutwidth the complexity of many classical problems remained open. For Hamiltonian Cycle, it is known that a (2+√2)^{pw} n^𝒪(1) algorithm is optimal for pathwidth under SETH [Cygan et al. JACM 2018]. Van Geffen et al. [J. Graph Algorithms Appl. 2020] and Bojikian et al. [STACS 2023] asked which running time is optimal for this problem parameterized by cutwidth. We answer this question with (1+√2)^{ctw} n^𝒪(1) by providing matching upper and lower bounds. Second, as our main technical contribution, we close the gap left by van Heck [2018] for Partition Into Triangles (and Triangle Packing) by improving both upper and lower bound and getting a tight bound of ∛{3}^{ctw} n^𝒪(1), which to our knowledge exhibits the only known tight non-integral basis apart from Hamiltonian Cycle [Cygan et al. JACM 2018] and C₄-Hitting Set [SODA 2025]. We show that the cuts inducing a disjoint union of paths of length three (unions of so-called Z-cuts) lie at the core of the complexity of the problem - usually lower-bound constructions use simpler cuts inducing either a matching or a disjoint union of bicliques. Finally, we determine the optimal running times for Max Cut (2^{ctw} n^𝒪(1)) and Induced Matching (3^{ctw} n^𝒪(1)) by providing matching lower bounds for the existing algorithms - the latter result also answers an open question for treewidth by Chaudhary and Zehavi [WG 2023].
