Fixed-Parameter Tractability of Token Jumping on Planar Graphs

, 2015
Suppose that we are given two independent sets $I_0$ and $I_r$ of a graph such that $|I_0| = |I_r|$, and imagine that a token is placed on each vertex in $I_0$. The token jumping problem is to determine whether there exists a sequence of independent sets
