Abstract

The class of Bipartite Distance Hereditary (BDH) graphs is the intersection between bipartite domino-free and chordal bipartite graphs.\ Graphs in both the latter classes have linearly many maximal bicliques, implying the existence of polynomial-time algorithms for computing the associated Galois lattice.\ Such a lattice can indeed be built in $O(m\times n)$ worst case-time for a domino-free graph with $m$ edges and $n$ vertices.\ In this paper we give a sharp estimate on the number of the maximal bicliques of BDH graphs and exploit such result to give an $O(m)$ worst case time algorithm for computing the Galois lattice of BDH graphs. By relying on the fact that neighborhoods of vertices of BDH graphs can be realized as directed paths in a arborescence, we give an $O(n)$ worst-case space and time encoding of both the input graph and its Galois lattice, provided that the reverse of a Bandelt and Mulder building sequence is given.

Factorisability of Low Dimensional Non-Negative Integer Matrices

We consider the problem of determining if a given two-dimensional nonnegative integer matrix $M$ is the product of two such matrices, excluding trivial units. A matrix $M$ with no such factorisation is called prime and therefore belongs to the minimal (infinite rank) generator of $2 \times 2$ matrices over the natural numbers, otherwise it is called composite. We also consider the problem of finding a (non-unique) factorisation of a composite matrix. Our results have applications in computational group theory and the theory of codes, where such matrices are called incidence matrices. We analyse the complexity of primality and finding a factorisation for a composite matrix, providing a first efficient algorithm.

The parameterised complexity of generalised temporal domination on temporal graphs with modular structure

Inspired by the static problem $(α,β)$-Dominating Set, we propose a general temporal domination problem, called $(α,β)$-Temporal Dominating Set ($(α,β)$-TDS). We show that this problem encompasses Temporal Dominating Set, and additionally provides first temporal extensions of problems such as $k$-Dominating Set and $α$-Dominating Set. In this paper, we study the parameterised complexity of $(α,β)$-TDS with respect to temporal neighbourhood diversity (TND), temporal modular-width (TMW), and temporal cliquewidth (TCW). We obtain fixed parameter tractability results for all values of $α$ and $β$ with respect to TND; W[1]-hardness with respect to TMW and TCW whenever $β$ is in the problem input, or whenever $α\in (0,1)$ and $β$ is a fixed constant; and para-NP-hardness with respect to TCW when $α= 0$ and $β= 1$, or $α= 1$ and $β= 0$.
