The NP-hard Multiple Hitting Set problem is finding a minimum-cardinality set intersecting each of the sets in a given input collection a given number of times. Generalizing a well-known data reduction algorithm due to Weihe, we show a problem kernel for Multiple Hitting Set parameterized by the Dilworth number, a graph parameter introduced by Foldes and Hammer in 1978 yet seemingly so far unexplored in the context of parameterized complexity theory. Using matrix multiplication, we speed up the algorithm to quadratic sequential time and logarithmic parallel time. We experimentally evaluate our algorithms. By implementing our algorithm on GPUs, we show the feasability of realizing kernelization algorithms on SIMD (Single Instruction, Multiple Date) architectures.

We study the algorithmic properties of the graph class Chordal-ke, that is, graphs that can be turned into a chordal graph by adding at most k edges or, equivalently, the class of graphs of fill-in at most k. We discover that a number of fundamental intractable optimization problems being parameterized by k admit subexponential algorithms on graphs from Chordal-ke. We identify a large class of optimization problems on Chordal-ke that admit algorithms with the typical running time 2^{O(sqrt{k}log k)}cdot n^{O(1)}. Examples of the problems from this class are finding an independent set of maximum weight, finding a feedback vertex set or an odd cycle transversal of minimum weight, or the problem of finding a maximum induced planar subgraph. On the other hand, we show that for some fundamental optimization problems, like finding an optimal graph coloring or finding a maximum clique, are FPT on Chordal-ke when parameterized by k but do not admit subexponential in k algorithms unless ETH fails. Besides subexponential time algorithms, the class of Chordal-ke graphs appears to be appealing from the perspective of kernelization (with parameter k). While it is possible to show that most of the weighted variants of optimization problems do not admit polynomial in k kernels on Chordal-ke graphs, this does not exclude the existence of Turing kernelization and kernelization for unweighted graphs. In particular, we construct a polynomial Turing kernel for Weighted Clique on Chordal-ke graphs. For (unweighted) Independent Set we design polynomial kernels on two interesting subclasses of Chordal-ke, namely, Interval-ke and Split-ke graphs.
The known linear-time kernelizations for $d$-Hitting Set guarantee linear worst-case running times using a quadratic-size data structure (that is not fully initialized). Getting rid of this data structure, we show that problem kernels of asymptotical ly optimal size $O(k^d)$ for $d$-Hitting Set are computable in linear time and space. Additionally, we experimentally compare the linear-time kernelizations for $d$-Hitting Set to each other and to a classical data reduction algorithm due to Weihe.
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 investigate the parameterized complexity of the following edge coloring problem motivated by the problem of channel assignment in wireless networks. For an integer q>1 and a graph G, the goal is to find a coloring of the edges of G with the maximu m number of colors such that every vertex of the graph sees at most q colors. This problem is NP-hard for q>1, and has been well-studied from the point of view of approximation. Our main focus is the case when q=2, which is already theoretically intricate and practically relevant. We show fixed-parameter tractable algorithms for both the standard and the dual parameter, and for the latter problem, the result is based on a linear vertex kernel.
A long line of research on fixed parameter tractability of integer programming culminated with showing that integer programs with n variables and a constraint matrix with dual tree-depth d and largest entry D are solvable in time g(d,D)poly(n) for so me function g. However, the dual tree-depth of a constraint matrix is not preserved by row operations, i.e., a given integer program can be equivalent to another with a smaller dual tree-depth, and thus does not reflect its geometric structure. We prove that the minimum dual tree-depth of a row-equivalent matrix is equal to the branch-depth of the matroid defined by the columns of the matrix. We design a fixed parameter algorithm for computing branch-depth of matroids represented over a finite field and a fixed parameter algorithm for computing a row-equivalent matrix with minimum dual tree-depth. Finally, we use these results to obtain an algorithm for integer programming running in time g(d*,D)poly(n) where d* is the branch-depth of the constraint matrix; the branch-depth cannot be replaced by the more permissive notion of branch-width.
