Message Passing for Maximum Weight Independent Set [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Information Theory, 2009
We investigate the use of message-passing algorithms for the problem of finding the max-weight independent set (MWIS) in a graph. First, we study the performance of the classical loopy max-product belief propagation. We show that each fixed point estimate of max-product can be mapped in a natural way to an extreme point of the LP polytope associated ...

Graphs with unique maximum independent sets

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics, 1985
A graph is a unique independence graph if it has a unique independent set of vertices of maximal cardinality. If, moreover, the complement of the set of vertices is also independent, the graph is called a strong unique independence graph. The authors prove the following theorem: A connected graph is a strong unique independence graph if and only if it ...

Relaxed Two-Coloring of Cubic Graphs [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2005
We show that any graph of maximum degree at most $3$ has a two-coloring, such that one color-class is an independent set while the other color induces monochromatic components of order at most $189$. On the other hand for any constant $C$ we exhibit a $4$

Approximation hardness of dominating set problems in bounded degree graphs

open access: yes, 2008
We study approximation hardness of the Minimum Dominating Set problem and its variants in undirected and directed graphs. Using a similar result obtained by Trevisan for Minimum Set Cover we prove the first explicit approximation lower bounds for various

New models and algorithms for RNA pseudoknot order assignment

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science, 2020
The pseudoknot is a specific motif of the RNA structure that highly influences the overall shape and stability of a molecule. It occurs when nucleotides of two disjoint single-stranded fragments of the same chain, separated by a helical fragment ...

QoS-Aware Bandwidth Allocation and Concurrent Scheduling for Terahertz Wireless Backhaul Networks

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
In recent years, with the spectrum resources in low frequency bands becoming increasingly insufficient, the carrier frequency of wireless communication has started its evolution to the Terahertz (THz) frequency band, and meanwhile the THz communication ...

On the k-Component Independence Number of a Tree

open access: yesDiscrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, 2021
Let G be a graph and k≥1 be an integer. A subset S of vertices in a graph G is called a k-component independent set of G if each component of GS has order at most k.

An improvement on the maximum number of ‐dominating independent sets [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, 2018
AbstractErdős and Moser raised the question of determining the maximum number of maximal cliques or, equivalently, the maximum number of maximal independent sets in a graph on vertices. Since then there has been a lot of research along these lines.A ‐dominating independent set is an independent set such that every vertex not contained in has at ...

Targeted Branching for the Maximum Independent Set Problem

open access: yesCoRR, 2021
Finding a maximum independent set is a fundamental NP-hard problem that is used in many real-world applications. Given an unweighted graph, this problem asks for a maximum cardinality set of pairwise non-adjacent vertices. Some of the most successful algorithms for this problem are based on the branch-and-bound or branch-and-reduce paradigms.
