On the Minimisation of Transition-Based Rabin Automata and the Chromatic Memory Requirements of Muller Conditions

Authors: Antonio Casares

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 216, 30th EACSL Annual Conference on Computer Science Logic (CSL 2022)

Abstract
In this paper, we relate the problem of determining the chromatic memory requirements of Muller conditions with the minimisation of transition-based Rabin automata. Our first contribution is a proof of the NP-completeness of the minimisation of transition-based Rabin automata. Our second contribution concerns the memory requirements of games over graphs using Muller conditions. A memory structure is a finite state machine that implements a strategy and is updated after reading the edges of the game; the special case of chromatic memories being those structures whose update function only consider the colours of the edges. We prove that the minimal amount of chromatic memory required in games using a given Muller condition is exactly the size of a minimal Rabin automaton recognising this condition. Combining these two results, we deduce that finding the chromatic memory requirements of a Muller condition is NP-complete. This characterisation also allows us to prove that chromatic memories cannot be optimal in general, disproving a conjecture by Kopczyński.

Clique-Width for Graph Classes Closed under Complementation

Authors: Alexandre Blanché, Konrad K. Dabrowski, Matthew Johnson, Vadim V. Lozin, Daniël Paulusma, and Viktor Zamaraev

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 83, 42nd International Symposium on Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFCS 2017)

Abstract
Clique-width is an important graph parameter due to its algorithmic and structural properties. A graph class is hereditary if it can be characterized by a (not necessarily finite) set H of forbidden induced subgraphs. We initiate a systematic study into the boundedness of clique-width of hereditary graph classes closed under complementation. First, we extend the known classification for the |H|=1 case by classifying the boundedness of clique-width for every set H of self-complementary graphs. We then completely settle the |H|=2 case. In particular, we determine one new class of (H1, complement of H1)-free graphs of bounded clique-width (as a side effect, this leaves only six classes of (H1, H2)-free graphs, for which it is not known whether their clique-width is bounded). Once we have obtained the classification of the |H|=2 case, we research the effect of forbidding self-complementary graphs on the boundedness of clique-width. Surprisingly, we show that for a set F of self-complementary graphs on at least five vertices, the classification of the boundedness of clique-width for ({H1, complement of H1} + F)-free graphs coincides with the one for the |H|=2 case if and only if F does not include the bull (the only non-empty self-complementary graphs on fewer than five vertices are P_1 and P_4, and P_4-free graphs have clique-width at most 2). Finally, we discuss the consequences of our results for COLOURING.
