Mim-Width Is paraNP-Complete

Authors: Benjamin Bergougnoux, Édouard Bonnet, and Julien Duron

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 334, 52nd International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2025)

Abstract
We show that it is NP-hard to distinguish graphs of linear mim-width at most 1211 from graphs of sim-width at least 1216. This implies that Mim-Width, Sim-Width, One-Sided Mim-Width, and their linear counterparts are all paraNP-complete, i.e., NP-complete to compute even when upper bounded by a constant. A key intermediate problem that we introduce and show NP-complete, Linear Degree Balancing, inputs an edge-weighted graph G and an integer τ, and asks whether V(G) can be linearly ordered such that every vertex of G has weighted backward and forward degrees at most τ.

Packing Arc-Disjoint 4-Cycles in Oriented Graphs

Authors: Jasine Babu, R. Krithika, and Deepak Rajendraprasad

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 250, 42nd IARCS Annual Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (FSTTCS 2022)

Abstract
Given a directed graph G and a positive integer k, the Arc Disjoint r-Cycle Packing problem asks whether G has k arc-disjoint r-cycles. We show that, for each integer r ≥ 3, Arc Disjoint r-Cycle Packing is NP-complete on oriented graphs with girth r. When r is even, the same result holds even when the input class is further restricted to be bipartite. On the positive side, focusing on r = 4 in oriented graphs, we study the complexity of the problem with respect to two parameterizations: solution size and vertex cover size. For the former, we give a cubic kernel with quadratic number of vertices. This is smaller than the compression size guaranteed by a reduction to the well-known 4-Set Packing. For the latter, we show fixed-parameter tractability using an unapparent integer linear programming formulation of an equivalent problem.

Inapproximability of Rainbow Colouring

Authors: L. Sunil Chandran and Deepak Rajendraprasad

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 24, IARCS Annual Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (FSTTCS 2013)

Abstract
A rainbow colouring of a connected graph G is a colouring of the edges of G such that every pair of vertices in G is connected by at least one path in which no two edges are coloured the same. The minimum number of colours required to rainbow colour G is called its rainbow connection number. Chakraborty, Fischer, Matsliah and Yuster have shown that it is NP-hard to compute the rainbow connection number of graphs [J. Comb. Optim., 2011]. Basavaraju, Chandran, Rajendraprasad and Ramaswamy have reported an (r+3)-factor approximation algorithm to rainbow colour any graph of radius r [Graphs and Combinatorics, 2012]. In this article, we use a result of Guruswami, Håstad and Sudan on the NP-hardness of colouring a 2-colourable 4-uniform hypergraph using constantly many colours [SIAM J. Comput., 2002] to show that for every positive integer k, it is NP-hard to distinguish between graphs with rainbow connection number 2k+2 and 4k+2. This, in turn, implies that there cannot exist a polynomial time algorithm to rainbow colour graphs with less than twice the optimum number of colours, unless P=NP. The authors have earlier shown that the rainbow connection number problem remains NP-hard even when restricted to the class of chordal graphs, though in this case a 4-factor approximation algorithm is available [COCOON, 2012]. In this article, we improve upon the 4-factor approximation algorithm to design a linear-time algorithm that can rainbow colour a chordal graph G using at most 3/2 times the minimum number of colours if G is bridgeless and at most 5/2 times the minimum number of colours otherwise. Finally we show that the rainbow connection number of bridgeless chordal graphs cannot be polynomial-time approximated to a factor less than 5/4, unless P=NP.
