Independent Sets near the Lower Bound in Bounded Degree Graphs

Authors: Zdenek Dvorák and Bernard Lidický

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 66, 34th Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2017)

Abstract

By Brook's Theorem, every n-vertex graph of maximum degree at most Delta >= 3 and clique number at most Delta is Delta-colorable, and thus it has an independent set of size at least n/Delta. We give an approximate characterization of graphs with independence number close to this bound, and use it to show that the problem of deciding whether such a graph has an independent set of size at least n/Delta+k has a kernel of size O(k).

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.
