Matthias Bentert, TF, André Nichterlein, and Rolf Niedermeier Parameterized Aspects of Triangle Enumeration
abstract

Listing all triangles in an undirected graph is a fundamental graph primitive with numerous applications. It is trivially solvable in time cubic in the number of vertices. It has seen a significant body of work contributing to both theoretical aspects (e.g., lower and upper bounds on running time, adaption to new computational models) as well as practical aspects (e.g. algorithms tuned for large graphs). Motivated by the fact that the worst-case running time is cubic, we perform a systematic parameterized complexity study of triangle enumeration, providing both positive results (new enumerative kernelizations, “subcubic” parameterized solving algorithms) as well as negative results (uselessness in terms of possibility of “faster” parameterized algorithms of certain parameters such as diameter).

abstract

Given a graph G=(V,E), two vertices s,t in V, and two integers k,l, the Short Secluded Path problem is to find a simple s-t-path with at most k vertices and l neighbors. We study the parameterized complexity of the problem with respect to four structural graph parameters: the vertex cover number, treewidth, feedback vertex number, and feedback edge number. In particular, we completely settle the question of the existence of problem kernels with size polynomial in these parameters and their combinations with k and l. We also obtain a 2^O(w) l^2 n-time algorithm for graphs of treewidth w, which yields subexponential-time algorithms in several graph classes.

René van Bevern, TF, Oxana Yu. Tsidulko On approximate data reduction for the Rural Postman Problem: Theory and experiments
abstract

Given an undirected graph with edge weights and a subset R of its edges, the Rural Postman Problem (RPP) is to find a closed walk of minimum total weight containing all edges of R. We prove that RPP is WK[1]‐complete parameterized by the number and weight d of edges traversed additionally to the required ones. Thus RPP instances cannot be polynomial‐time compressed to instances of size polynomial in d unless the polynomial‐time hierarchy collapses. In contrast, denoting by b ≤ 2d the number of vertices incident to an odd number of edges of R and by c ≤ d the number of connected components formed by the edges in R, we show how to reduce any RPP instance I to an RPP instance I′ with 2b + O(c/ϵ) vertices in O(n3) time so that any α‐approximate solution for I′ gives an α(1 + ϵ)‐approximate solution for I, for any α ≥ 1 and ϵ > 0. That is, we provide a polynomial‐size approximate kernelization scheme (PSAKS). We experimentally evaluate it on wide‐spread benchmark data sets as well as on two real snow plowing instances from Berlin. We also make first steps toward a PSAKS for the parameter c.

abstract

Electing a single committee of a small size is a classical and well-understood voting situation. Being interested in a sequence of committees, we introduce and study two time-dependent multistage models based on simple Plurality voting. Therein, we are given a sequence of voting profiles (stages) over the same set of agents and candidates, and our task is to find a small committee for each stage of high score. In the conservative model we additionally require that any two consecutive committees have a small symmetric difference. Analogously, in the revolutionary model we require large symmetric differences. We prove both models to be NP-hard even for a constant number of agents, and, based on this, initiate a parameterized complexity analysis for the most natural parameters and combinations thereof. Among other results, we prove both models to be in XP yet W[1]-hard regarding the number of stages, and that being revolutionary seems to be "easier" than being conservative: If the (upper- resp. lower-) bound on the size of symmetric differences is constant, the conservative model remains NP-hard while the revolutionary model becomes polynomial-time solvable.

abstract

Dynamic time warping constitutes a major tool for analyzing time series. In particular, computing a mean series of a given sample of series in dynamic time warping spaces (by minimizing the Fr\'echet function) is a challenging computational problem, so far solved by several heuristic, inexact strategies. We spot several inaccuracies in the literature on exact mean computation in dynamic time warping spaces. Our contributions comprise an exact dynamic program computing a mean (useful for benchmarking and evaluating known heuristics). Empirical evaluations reveal significant deficits of the state-of-the-art heuristics in terms of their output quality. Finally, we give an exact polynomial-time algorithm for the special case of binary time series.

We study the computational complexity of Feedback Vertex Set on subclasses of Hamiltonian graphs. In particular, we consider Hamiltonian graphs that are regular or are planar and regular. Moreover, we study the less known class of p-Hamiltonian-ordered graphs, which are graphs that admit for any p-tuple of vertices a Hamiltonian cycle visiting them in the order given by the tuple. We prove that Feedback Vertex Set remains NP-hard in these restricted cases, even if a Hamiltonian cycle is additionally given as part of the input.

abstract

We study q-SAT in the multistage model, focusing on the linear-time solvable 2-SAT. Herein, given a sequence of q-CNF fomulas and a non-negative integer d, the question is whether there is a sequence of satisfying truth assignments such that for every two consecutive truth assignments, the number of variables whose values changed is at most d. We prove that Multistage 2-SAT is NP-hard even in quite restricted cases. Moreover, we present parameterized algorithms (including kernelization) for Multistage 2-SAT and prove them to be asymptotically optimal.

abstract

We study the 𝖭𝖯-hard Minimum Shared Edges (MSE) problem on graphs: decide whether it is possible to route p paths from a start vertex to a target vertex in a given graph while using at most k edges more than once. We show that MSE can be decided on bounded (i.e. finite) grids in linear time when both dimensions are either small or large compared to the number p of paths. On the contrary, we show that MSE remains 𝖭𝖯-hard on subgraphs of bounded grids. Finally, we study MSE from a parametrised complexity point of view. It is known that MSE is fixed-parameter tractable with respect to the number p of paths. We show that, under standard complexity-theoretical assumptions, the problem parametrised by the combined parameter k, p, maximum degree, diameter, and treewidth does not admit a polynomial-size problem kernel, even when restricted to planar graphs.

We study the problem of placing wildlife crossings, such as green bridges, over human-made obstacles to challenge habitat fragmentation. The main task herein is, given a graph describing habitats or routes of wildlife animals and possibilities of building green bridges, to find a low-cost placement of green bridges that connects the habitats. We develop different problem models for this task and study them from a computational complexity and parameterized algorithmics perspective.

TF, George B. Mertzios, and André Nichterlein Kernelization Lower Bounds for Finding Constant Size Subgraphs
abstract

Kernelization is an important tool in parameterized algorithmics. The goal is to reduce the input instance of a parameterized problem in polynomial time to an equivalent instance of the same problem such that the size of the reduced instance only depends on the parameter and not on the size of the original instance. In this paper, we provide a first conceptual study on limits of kernelization for several polynomial-time solvable problems. For instance, we consider the problem of finding a triangle with negative sum of edge weights parameterized by the maximum degree of the input graph. We prove that a linear-time computable strict kernel of truly subcubic size for this problem violates the popular APSP-conjecture.

TF, Hendrik Molter, Rolf Niedermeier, Malte Renken, and Philipp Zschoche Temporal Graph Classes: A View Through Temporal Separators
abstract

We investigate the computational complexity of separating two distinct vertices s and z by vertex deletion in a temporal graph. In a temporal graph, the vertex set is fixed but the edges have (discrete) time labels. Since the corresponding Temporal (s, z)-Separation problem is NP-hard, it is natural to investigate whether relevant special cases exist that are computationally tractable. To this end, we study restrictions of the underlying (static) graph---there we observe polynomial-time solvability in the case of bounded treewidth---as well as restrictions concerning the "temporal evolution" along the time steps. Systematically studying partially novel concepts in this direction, we identify sharp borders between tractable and intractable cases.

Treewidth is arguably the most important structural graph parameter leading to algorithmically beneficial graph decompositions. Triggered by a strongly growing interest in temporal networks (graphs where edge sets change over time), we discuss fresh algorithmic views on temporal tree decompositions and temporal treewidth. We review and explain some of the recent work together with some encountered pitfalls, and we point out challenges for future research.

TF, Marco Morik, and Manuel Sorge The Complexity of Routing with Few Collisions
abstract

We study the computational complexity of routing multiple objects through a network in such a way that only few collisions occur: Given a graph G with two distinct terminal vertices and two positive integers p and k, the question is whether one can connect the terminals by at least p routes (e.g. paths) such that at most k edges are time-wise shared among them. We study three types of routes: traverse each vertex at most once (paths), each edge at most once (trails), or no such restrictions (walks). We prove that for paths and trails the problem is NP-complete on undirected and directed graphs even if k is constant or the maximum vertex degree in the input graph is constant. For walks, however, it is solvable in polynomial time on undirected graphs for arbitrary k and on directed graphs if k is constant. We additionally study for all route types a variant of the problem where the maximum length of a route is restricted by some given upper bound. We prove that this length-restricted variant has the same complexity classification with respect to paths and trails, but for walks it becomes NP-complete on undirected graphs.

TF, Rolf Niedermeier, Valentin Rohm, and Philipp Zschoche Multistage Vertex Cover
abstract

Covering all edges of a graph by a minimum number of vertices, this is the NP-hard Vertex Cover problem, is among the most fundamental algorithmic tasks. Following a recent trend in studying dynamic and temporal graphs, we initiate the study of Multistage Vertex Cover. Herein, having a series of graphs with same vertex set but over time changing edge sets (known as temporal graph consisting of various layers), the goal is to find for each layer of the temporal graph a small vertex cover and to guarantee that the two vertex cover sets between two sub- sequent layers differ not too much (specified by a given parameter). We show that, different from classic Vertex Cover and some other dynamic or temporal variants of it, Multistage Vertex Cover is computationally hard even in fairly restricted settings. On the positive side, however, we also spot several fixed-parameter tractability results based on some of the most natural parameterizations.

abstract

Addressing a quest by Gupta et al. [ICALP'14], we provide a first, comprehensive study of finding a short s-t path in the multistage graph model, referred to as the Multistage s-t Path problem. Herein, given a sequence of graphs over the same vertex set but changing edge sets, the task is to find short s-t paths in each graph ("snapshot") such that in the resulting path sequence the consecutive s-t paths are "similar". We measure similarity by the size of the symmetric difference of either the vertex set (vertex-similarity) or the edge set (edge-similarity) of any two consecutive paths. We prove that the two variants of Multistage s-t Path are already NP-hard for an input sequence of only two graphs. Motivated by this fact and natural applications of this scenario e.g. in traffic route planning, we perform a parameterized complexity analysis. Among other results, we prove parameterized hardness (W[1]-hardness) regarding the size of the path sequence (solution size) for both variants, vertex- and edge-similarity. As a novel conceptual contribution, we then modify the multistage model by asking for dissimilar consecutive paths. As one of the main results, we prove that dissimilarity allows for fixed-parameter tractability for the parameter solution size, thereby contrasting our W[1]-hardness proof of the corresponding similarity case.

abstract

We study the following multiagent variant of the knapsack problem. We are given a set of items, a set of voters, and a value of the budget; each item is endowed with a cost and each voter assigns to each item a certain value. The goal is to select a subset of items with the total cost not exceeding the budget, in a way that is consistent with the voters' preferences. Since the preferences of the voters over the items can vary significantly, we need a way of aggregating these preferences, in order to select the socially most preferred valid knapsack. We study three approaches to aggregating voters preferences, which are motivated by the literature on multiwinner elections and fair allocation. This way we introduce the concepts of individually best, diverse, and fair knapsack. We study computational complexity (including parameterized complexity, and complexity under restricted domains) of computing the aforementioned concepts of multiagent knapsacks.

abstract

Cities play a vital role in the global climate change mitigation agenda. City population density is one of the key factors that influence urban energy consumption and the subsequent GHG emissions. However, previous research on the relationship between population density and GHG emissions led to contradictory results due to urban/rural definition conundrum and the varying methodologies for estimating GHG emissions. This work addresses these ambiguities by employing the City Clustering Algorithm (CCA) and utilizing the gridded CO2 emissions data. Our results, derived from the analysis of all inhabited areas in the US, show a sub-linear relationship between population density and the total emissions (i.e. the sum of on-road and building emissions) on a per capita basis. Accordingly, we find that doubling the population density would entail a reduction in the total CO2 emissions in buildings and on-road sectors typically by at least 42%. Moreover, we find that population density exerts a higher influence on on-road emissions than buildings emissions. From an energy consumption point of view, our results suggest that on-going urban sprawl will lead to an increase in on-road energy consumption in cities and therefore stresses the importance of developing adequate local policy measures to limit urban sprawl.

Philipp Zschoche, TF, Hendrik Molter, and Rolf Niedermeier The Complexity of Finding Small Separators in Temporal Graphs
abstract

Temporal graphs are graphs with time-stamped edges. We study the problem of finding a small vertex set (the separator) with respect to two designated terminal vertices such that the removal of the set eliminates all temporal paths connecting one terminal to the other. Herein, we consider two models of temporal paths: paths that contain arbitrarily many edges per time step (non- strict) and paths that contain at most one edge per time step (strict). Regarding the number of time steps of a temporal graph, we show a complexity dichotomy (NP-hardness versus polynomial- time solvability) for both problem variants. Moreover we prove both problem variants to be NP-complete even on temporal graphs whose underlying graph is planar. We further show that, on temporal graphs with planar underlying graph, if additionally the number of time steps is constant, then the problem variant for strict paths is solvable in quasi-linear time. Finally, we introduce and motivate the notion of a temporal core (vertices whose incident edges change over time). We prove that the non-strict variant is fixed-parameter tractable when parameterized by the size of the temporal core, while the strict variant remains NP-complete, even for constant-size temporal cores.
