Title
Sort and Search: Exact algorithms for generalized domination
Abstract
In 1994, Telle introduced the following notion of domination, which generalizes many domination-type graph invariants. Let @s and @r be two sets of non-negative integers. A vertex subset S@?V of an undirected graph G=(V,E) is called a (@s,@r)-dominating set of G if |N(v)@?S|@?@s for all v@?S and |N(v)@?S|@?@r for all v@?V@?S. In this paper, we prove that decision, optimization, and counting variants of ({p},{q})-domination are solvable in time 2^|^V^|^/^2@?|V|^O^(^1^). We also show how to extend these results for infinite @s={p+m@?@?:@?@?N"0} and @r={q+m@?@?:@?@?N"0}. For the case |@s|+|@r|=3, these problems can be solved in time 3^|^V^|^/^2@?|V|^O^(^1^), and similarly to the case |@s|=|@r|=1 it is possible to extend the algorithm for some infinite sets.
