The Tape Reconfiguration Problem and Its Consequences for Dominating Set Reconfiguration

Authors: Nicolas Bousquet, Quentin Deschamps, Arnaud Mary, Amer E. Mouawad, and Théo Pierron

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

Abstract
A dominating set of a graph G = (V,E) is a set of vertices D ⊆ V whose closed neighborhood is V, i.e., N[D] = V. We view a dominating set as a collection of tokens placed on the vertices of D. In the token sliding variant of the Dominating Set Reconfiguration problem (TS-DSR), we seek to transform a source dominating set into a target dominating set in G by sliding tokens along edges, and while maintaining a dominating set all along the transformation. TS-DSR is known to be PSPACE-complete even restricted to graphs of pathwidth w, for some non-explicit constant w and to be XL-complete parameterized by the size k of the solution. The first contribution of this article consists in using a novel approach to provide the first explicit constant for which the TS-DSR problem is PSPACE-complete, a question that was left open in the literature. From a parameterized complexity perspective, the token jumping variant of DSR, i.e., where tokens can jump to arbitrary vertices, is known to be FPT when parameterized by the size of the dominating sets on nowhere dense classes of graphs. But, in contrast, no non-trivial result was known about TS-DSR. We prove that DSR is actually much harder in the sliding model since it is XL-complete when restricted to bounded pathwidth graphs and even when parameterized by k plus the feedback vertex set number of the graph. This gives, for the first time, a difference of behavior between the complexity under token sliding and token jumping for some problem on graphs of bounded treewidth. All our results are obtained using a brand new method, based on the hardness of the so-called Tape Reconfiguration problem, a problem we believe to be of independent interest. We complement these hardness results with a positive result showing that DSR (parameterized by k) in the sliding model is FPT on planar graphs, also answering an open problem from the literature.

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.

On the Smoothed Complexity of Convex Hulls

Authors: Olivier Devillers, Marc Glisse, Xavier Goaoc, and Rémy Thomasse

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 34, 31st International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2015)

Abstract
We establish an upper bound on the smoothed complexity of convex hulls in R^d under uniform Euclidean (L^2) noise. Specifically, let {p_1^*, p_2^*, ..., p_n^*} be an arbitrary set of n points in the unit ball in R^d and let p_i = p_i^* + x_i, where x_1, x_2, ..., x_n are chosen independently from the unit ball of radius r. We show that the expected complexity, measured as the number of faces of all dimensions, of the convex hull of {p_1, p_2, ..., p_n} is O(n^{2-4/(d+1)} (1+1/r)^{d-1}); the magnitude r of the noise may vary with n. For d=2 this bound improves to O(n^{2/3} (1+r^{-2/3})). We also analyze the expected complexity of the convex hull of L^2 and Gaussian perturbations of a nice sample of a sphere, giving a lower-bound for the smoothed complexity. We identify the different regimes in terms of the scale, as a function of n, and show that as the magnitude of the noise increases, that complexity varies monotonically for Gaussian noise but non-monotonically for L^2 noise.
