The two weighted graph problems Node Multiway Cut (NMC) and Subset Feedback Vertex Set (SFVS) both ask for a vertex set of minimum total weight, that for NMC disconnects a given set of terminals, and for SFVS intersects all cycles containing a vertex of a given set. We design a meta-algorithm that allows to solve both problems in time $2^{O(rw^3)}cdot n^{4}$, $2^{O(q^2log(q))}cdot n^{4}$, and $n^{O(k^2)}$ where $rw$ is the rank-width, $q$ the $mathbb{Q}$-rank-width, and $k$ the mim-width of a given decomposition. This answers in the affirmative an open question raised by Jaffke et al. (Algorithmica, 2019) concerning an XP algorithm for SFVS parameterized by mim-width. By a unified algorithm, this solves both problems in polynomial-time on the following graph classes: Interval, Permutation, and Bi-Interval graphs, Circular Arc and Circular Permutation graphs, Convex graphs, $k$-Polygon, Dilworth-$k$ and Co-$k$-Degenerate graphs for fixed $k$; and also on Leaf Power graphs if a leaf root is given as input, on $H$-Graphs for fixed $H$ if an $H$-representation is given as input, and on arbitrary powers of graphs in all the above classes. Prior to our results, only SFVS was known to be tractable restricted only on Interval and Permutation graphs, whereas all other results are new.

A bipartite graph $G=(A,B,E)$ is ${cal H}$-convex, for some family of graphs ${cal H}$, if there exists a graph $Hin {cal H}$ with $V(H)=A$ such that the set of neighbours in $A$ of each $bin B$ induces a connected subgraph of $H$. Many $mathsf{NP}$-
complete problems, including problems such as Dominating Set, Feedback Vertex Set, Induced Matching and List $k$-Colouring, become polynomial-time solvable for ${mathcal H}$-convex graphs when ${mathcal H}$ is the set of paths. In this case, the class of ${mathcal H}$-convex graphs is known as the class of convex graphs. The underlying reason is that the class of convex graphs has bounded mim-width. We extend the latter result to families of ${mathcal H}$-convex graphs where (i) ${mathcal H}$ is the set of cycles, or (ii) ${mathcal H}$ is the set of trees with bounded maximum degree and a bounded number of vertices of degree at least $3$. As a consequence, we can re-prove and strengthen a large number of results on generalized convex graphs known in the literature. To complement result (ii), we show that the mim-width of ${mathcal H}$-convex graphs is unbounded if ${mathcal H}$ is the set of trees with arbitrarily large maximum degree or an arbitrarily large number of vertices of degree at least $3$. In this way we are able to determine complexity dichotomies for the aforementioned graph problems. Afterwards we perform a more refined width-parameter analysis, which shows even more clearly which width parameters are bounded for classes of ${cal H}$-convex graphs.
It has long been known that Feedback Vertex Set can be solved in time $2^{mathcal{O}(wlog w)}n^{mathcal{O}(1)}$ on $n$-vertex graphs of treewidth $w$, but it was only recently that this running time was improved to $2^{mathcal{O}(w)}n^{mathcal{O}(1)}
$, that is, to single-exponential parameterized by treewidth. We investigate which generalizations of Feedback Vertex Set can be solved in a similar running time. Formally, for a class $mathcal{P}$ of graphs, the Bounded $mathcal{P}$-Block Vertex Deletion problem asks, given a graph~$G$ on $n$ vertices and positive integers~$k$ and~$d$, whether $G$ contains a set~$S$ of at most $k$ vertices such that each block of $G-S$ has at most $d$ vertices and is in $mathcal{P}$. Assuming that $mathcal{P}$ is recognizable in polynomial time and satisfies a certain natural hereditary condition, we give a sharp characterization of when single-exponential parameterized algorithms are possible for fixed values of $d$: if $mathcal{P}$ consists only of chordal graphs, then the problem can be solved in time $2^{mathcal{O}(wd^2)} n^{mathcal{O}(1)}$, and if $mathcal{P}$ contains a graph with an induced cycle of length $ellge 4$, then the problem is not solvable in time $2^{o(wlog w)} n^{mathcal{O}(1)}$ even for fixed $d=ell$, unless the ETH fails. We also study a similar problem, called Bounded $mathcal{P}$-Component Vertex Deletion, where the target graphs have connected components of small size rather than blocks of small size, and we present analogous results. For this problem, we also show that if $d$ is part of the input and $mathcal{P}$ contains all chordal graphs, then it cannot be solved in time $f(w)n^{o(w)}$ for some function $f$, unless the ETH fails.
We prove new complexity results for Feedback Vertex Set and Even Cycle Transversal on $H$-free graphs, that is, graphs that do not contain some fixed graph $H$ as an induced subgraph. In particular, we prove that both problems are polynomial-time sol
vable for $sP_3$-free graphs for every integer $sgeq 1$. Our results show that both problems exhibit the same behaviour on $H$-free graphs (subject to some open cases). This is in part explained by a new general algorithm we design for finding in a graph $G$ a largest induced subgraph whose blocks belong to some finite class ${cal C}$ of graphs. We also compare our results with the state-of-the-art results for the Odd Cycle Transversal problem, which is known to behave differently on $H$-free graphs.
We study the recently introduced Connected Feedback Vertex Set (CFVS) problem from the view-point of parameterized algorithms. CFVS is the connected variant of the classical Feedback Vertex Set problem and is defined as follows: given a graph G=(V,E)
and an integer k, decide whether there exists a subset F of V, of size at most k, such that G[V F] is a forest and G[F] is connected. We show that Connected Feedback Vertex Set can be solved in time $O(2^{O(k)}n^{O(1)})$ on general graphs and in time $O(2^{O(sqrt{k}log k)}n^{O(1)})$ on graphs excluding a fixed graph H as a minor. Our result on general undirected graphs uses as subroutine, a parameterized algorithm for Group Steiner Tree, a well studied variant of Steiner Tree. We find the algorithm for Group Steiner Tree of independent interest and believe that it will be useful for obtaining parameterized algorithms for other connectivity problems.
By a well known result the treewidth of k-outerplanar graphs is at most 3k-1. This paper gives, besides a rigorous proof of this fact, an algorithmic implementation of the proof, i.e. it is shown that, given a k-outerplanar graph G, a tree decomposit
ion of G of width at most 3k-1 can be found in O(kn) time and space. Similarly, a branch decomposition of a k-outerplanar graph of width at most 2k+1 can be also obtained in O(kn) time, the algorithm for which is also analyzed.
