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).

(Almost-)Optimal FPT Algorithm and Kernel for T-Cycle on Planar Graphs

Authors: Harmender Gahlawat, Abhishek Rathod, and Meirav Zehavi

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

Abstract
Research of cycles through specific vertices is a central topic in graph theory. In this context, we focus on a well-studied computational problem, T-Cycle: given an undirected n-vertex graph G and a set of k vertices T ⊆ V(G) termed terminals, the objective is to determine whether G contains a simple cycle C through all the terminals. Our contribution is twofold: (i) We provide a 2^{O(√klog k)}⋅ n-time fixed-parameter deterministic algorithm for T-Cycle on planar graphs; (ii) We provide a k^{O(1)}⋅ n-time deterministic kernelization algorithm for T-Cycle on planar graphs where the produced instance is of size klog^{O(1)}k. Both of our algorithms are optimal in terms of both k and n up to (poly)logarithmic factors in k under the ETH. In fact, our algorithms are the first subexponential-time fixed-parameter algorithm for T-Cycle on planar graphs, as well as the first polynomial kernel for T-Cycle on planar graphs. This substantially improves upon/expands the known literature on the parameterized complexity of the problem.

Algorithms for Computing Maximum Cliques in Hyperbolic Random Graphs

Authors: Eunjin Oh and Seunghyeok Oh

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 274, 31st Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2023)

Abstract
In this paper, we study the maximum clique problem on hyperbolic random graphs. A hyperbolic random graph is a mathematical model for analyzing scale-free networks since it effectively explains the power-law degree distribution of scale-free networks. We propose a simple algorithm for finding a maximum clique in hyperbolic random graph. We first analyze the running time of our algorithm theoretically. We can compute a maximum clique on a hyperbolic random graph G in O(m + n^{4.5(1-α)}) expected time if a geometric representation is given or in O(m + n^{6(1-α)}) expected time if a geometric representation is not given, where n and m denote the numbers of vertices and edges of G, respectively, and α denotes a parameter controlling the power-law exponent of the degree distribution of G. Also, we implemented and evaluated our algorithm empirically. Our algorithm outperforms the previous algorithm [BFK18] practically and theoretically. Beyond the hyperbolic random graphs, we have experiment on real-world networks. For most of instances, we get large cliques close to the optimum solutions efficiently.
