Vertex Deletion into Bipartite Permutation Graphs

A permutation graph can be defined as an intersection graph of segments whose endpoints lie on two parallel lines ?? and ??, one on each. A bipartite permutation graph is a permutation graph which is bipartite. In this paper we study the parameterized complexity of the bipartite permutation vertex deletion problem, which asks, for a given n-vertex graph, whether we can remove at most k vertices to obtain a bipartite permutation graph. This problem is NP-complete by the classical result of Lewis and Yannakakis [John M. Lewis and Mihalis Yannakakis, 1980]. We analyze the structure of the so-called almost bipartite permutation graphs which may contain holes (large induced cycles) in contrast to bipartite permutation graphs. We exploit the structural properties of the shortest hole in a such graph. We use it to obtain an algorithm for the bipartite permutation vertex deletion problem with running time f(k)n^O(1), and also give a polynomial-time 9-approximation algorithm

Vertex deletion into bipartite permutation graphs

A permutation graph can be defined as an intersection graph of segments whose endpoints lie on two parallel lines $ℓ_{1}$ and $ℓ_{2}$, one on each. A bipartite permutation graph is a permutation graph which is bipartite. In this paper we study the parameterized complexity of the bipartite permutation vertex deletion problem, which asks, for a given n-vertex graph, whether we can remove at most k vertices to obtain a bipartite permutation graph. This problem is NP-complete by the classical result of Lewis and Yannakakis [20]. We analyze the structure of the so-called almost bipartite permutation graphs which may contain holes (large induced cycles) in contrast to bipartite permutation graphs. We exploit the structural properties of the shortest hole in a such graph. We use it to obtain an algorithm for the bipartite permutation vertex deletion problem with running time ${\mathcal {O}}(9^k \cdot n^9)$, and also give a polynomial-time 9-approximation algorithm

A polynomial kernel for vertex deletion into bipartite permutation graphs

A permutation graph can be defined as an intersection graph of segments whose endpoints lie on two parallel lines $\ell_1$ and $\ell_2$, one on each. A bipartite permutation graph is a permutation graph which is bipartite. In the the bipartite permutation vertex deletion problem we ask for a given $n$-vertex graph, whether we can remove at most $k$ vertices to obtain a bipartite permutation graph. This problem is NP-complete but it does admit an FPT algorithm parameterized by $k$. In this paper we study the kernelization of this problem and show that it admits a polynomial kernel with $O(k^{62})$ vertices

Calculation of the Number of all Pairs of Disjoint S-permutation Matrices

The concept of S-permutation matrix is considered. A general formula for counting all disjoint pairs of $n^2 \times n^2$ S-permutation matrices as a function of the positive integer $n$ is formulated and proven in this paper. To do that, the graph theory techniques have been used. It has been shown that to count the number of disjoint pairs of $n^2 \times n^2$ S-permutation matrices, it is sufficient to obtain some numerical characteristics of all $n\times n$ bipartite graphs.Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1211.162
