We study a family of generalizations of Edge Dominating Set on directed graphs called Directed $(p,q)$-Edge Dominating Set. In this problem an arc $(u,v)$ is said to dominate itself, as well as all arcs which are at distance at most $q$ from $v$, or at distance at most $p$ to $u$. First, we give significantly improved FPT algorithms for the two most important cases of the problem, $(0,1)$-dEDS and $(1,1)$-dEDS (that correspond

Given a graph $G=(V,E)$, the dominating set problem asks for a minimum subset of vertices $Dsubseteq V$ such that every vertex $uin Vsetminus D$ is adjacent to at least one vertex $vin D$. That is, the set $D$ satisfies the condition that $|N[v]cap D
|geq 1$ for each $vin V$, where $N[v]$ is the closed neighborhood of $v$. In this paper, we study two variants of the classical dominating set problem: $boldmath{k}$-tuple dominating set ($k$-DS) problem and Liars dominating set (LDS) problem, and obtain several algorithmic and hardness results. On the algorithmic side, we present a constant factor ($frac{11}{2}$)-approximation algorithm for the Liars dominating set problem on unit disk graphs. Then, we obtain a PTAS for the $boldmath{k}$-tuple dominating set problem on unit disk graphs. On the hardness side, we show a $Omega (n^2)$ bits lower bound for the space complexity of any (randomized) streaming algorithm for Liars dominating set problem as well as for the $boldmath{k}$-tuple dominating set problem. Furthermore, we prove that the Liars dominating set problem on bipartite graphs is W[2]-hard.
We show that there is no deterministic local algorithm (constant-time distributed graph algorithm) that finds a $(7-epsilon)$-approximation of a minimum dominating set on planar graphs, for any positive constant $epsilon$. In prior work, the best low
er bound on the approximation ratio has been $5-epsilon$; there is also an upper bound of $52$.
We consider questions that arise from the intersection between the areas of polynomial-time approximation algorithms, subexponential-time algorithms, and fixed-parameter tractable algorithms. The questions, which have been asked several times (e.g.,
[Marx08, FGMS12, DF13]), are whether there is a non-trivial FPT-approximation algorithm for the Maximum Clique (Clique) and Minimum Dominating Set (DomSet) problems parameterized by the size of the optimal solution. In particular, letting $text{OPT}$ be the optimum and $N$ be the size of the input, is there an algorithm that runs in $t(text{OPT})text{poly}(N)$ time and outputs a solution of size $f(text{OPT})$, for any functions $t$ and $f$ that are independent of $N$ (for Clique, we want $f(text{OPT})=omega(1)$)? In this paper, we show that both Clique and DomSet admit no non-trivial FPT-approximation algorithm, i.e., there is no $o(text{OPT})$-FPT-approximation algorithm for Clique and no $f(text{OPT})$-FPT-approximation algorithm for DomSet, for any function $f$ (e.g., this holds even if $f$ is the Ackermann function). In fact, our results imply something even stronger: The best way to solve Clique and DomSet, even approximately, is to essentially enumerate all possibilities. Our results hold under the Gap Exponential Time Hypothesis (Gap-ETH) [Dinur16, MR16], which states that no $2^{o(n)}$-time algorithm can distinguish between a satisfiable 3SAT formula and one which is not even $(1 - epsilon)$-satisfiable for some constant $epsilon > 0$. Besides Clique and DomSet, we also rule out non-trivial FPT-approximation for Maximum Balanced Biclique, Maximum Subgraphs with Hereditary Properties, and Maximum Induced Matching in bipartite graphs. Additionally, we rule out $k^{o(1)}$-FPT-approximation algorithm for Densest $k$-Subgraph although this ratio does not yet match the trivial $O(k)$-approximation algorithm.
The Windows Scheduling Problem, also known as the Pinwheel Problem, is to schedule periodic jobs subject to their processing frequency demands. Instances are given as a set of jobs that have to be processed infinitely often such that the time interva
l between two consecutive executions of the same job j is no longer than the jobs given period $p_j$. The key contribution of this work is a new interpretation of the problem variant with exact periods, where the time interval between consecutive executions must be strictly $p_j$. We show that this version is equivalent to a natural combinatorial problem we call Partial Coding. Reductions in both directions can be realized in polynomial time, so that both hardness proofs and algorithms for Partial Coding transfer to Windows Scheduling. Applying this new perspective, we obtain a number of new results regarding the computational complexity of various Windows Scheduling Problem variants. We prove that even the case of one processor and unit-length jobs does not admit a pseudo-polynomial time algorithm unless SAT can be solved by a randomized method in expected quasi-polynomial time. This result also extends to the case of inexact periods, which answers a question that has remained open for more than two decades. Furthermore, we report an error found in a hardness proof previously given for the multi-machine case without machine migration, and we show that this variant reduces to the single-machine case. Finally, we prove that even with unit-length jobs the problem is co-NP-hard when jobs are allowed to migrate between machines.
The Minimum Dominating Set (MDS) problem is not only one of the most fundamental problems in distributed computing, it is also one of the most challenging ones. While it is well-known that minimum dominating sets cannot be approximated locally on gen
eral graphs, over the last years, several breakthroughs have been made on computing local approximations on sparse graphs. This paper presents a deterministic and local constant factor approximation for minimum dominating sets on bounded genus graphs, a very large family of sparse graphs. Our main technical contribution is a new analysis of a slightly modified, first-order definable variant of an existing algorithm by Lenzen et al. Interestingly, unlike existing proofs for planar graphs, our analysis does not rely on any topological arguments. We believe that our techniques can be useful for the study of local problems on sparse graphs beyond the scope of this paper.
