Linear Clique-Width for Hereditary Classes of Cographs
The class of cographs is known to have unbounded linear clique-width. We prove that a hereditary class of cographs has bounded linear clique-width if and only if it does not contain all quasi-threshold graphs or their complements. The proof borrows ideas from the enumeration of permutation classes
Fast Quasi-Threshold Editing
We introduce Quasi-Threshold Mover (QTM), an algorithm to solve the
quasi-threshold (also called trivially perfect) graph editing problem with edge
insertion and deletion. Given a graph it computes a quasi-threshold graph which
is close in terms of edit count. This edit problem is NP-hard. We present an
extensive experimental study, in which we show that QTM is the first algorithm
that is able to scale to large real-world graphs in practice. As a side result
we further present a simple linear-time algorithm for the quasi-threshold
recognition problem.Comment: 26 pages, 4 figures, submitted to ESA 201
Monotonic Stable Solutions for Minimum Coloring Games
For the class of minimum coloring games (introduced by Deng et al. (1999)) we investigate the existence of population monotonic allocation schemes (introduced by Sprumont (1990)). We show that a minimum coloring game on a graph G has a population monotonic allocation scheme if and only if G is (P4, 2K2)-free (or, equivalently, if its complement graph G is quasi-threshold). Moreover, we provide a procedure that for these graphs always selects an integer population monotonic allocation scheme.Minimum coloring game;population monotonic allocation scheme;(P4;2K2)-free graph;quasi-threshold graph
