A survey on the parameterized complexity of the independent set and (connected) dominating set reconfiguration problems

N Bousquet, AE Mouawad, N Nishimura… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2022 - arxiv.org
A graph vertex-subset problem defines which subsets of the vertices of an input graph are
feasible solutions. We view a feasible solution as a set of tokens placed on the vertices of …

The complexity of independent set reconfiguration on bipartite graphs

D Lokshtanov, AE Mouawad - ACM Transactions on Algorithms (TALG), 2018 - dl.acm.org
We settle the complexity of the Independent Set Reconfiguration problem on bipartite graphs
under all three commonly studied reconfiguration models. We show that under the token …

[HTML][HTML] Linear-time algorithm for sliding tokens on trees

ED Demaine, ML Demaine, E Fox-Epstein… - Theoretical Computer …, 2015 - Elsevier
Suppose that we are given two independent sets I b and I r of a graph such that| I b|=| I r|,
and imagine that a token is placed on each vertex in I b. Then, the sliding token problem is to …

Token sliding on chordal graphs

M Bonamy, N Bousquet - Graph-Theoretic Concepts in Computer Science …, 2017 - Springer
Let I be an independent set of a graph G. Imagine that a token is located on every vertex of I.
We can now move the tokens of I along the edges of the graph as long as the set of tokens …

Sliding token on bipartite permutation graphs

E Fox-Epstein, DA Hoang, Y Otachi… - … and Computation: 26th …, 2015 - Springer
Sliding Token is a natural reconfiguration problem in which vertices of independent sets are
iteratively replaced by neighbors. We develop techniques that may be useful in answering …

Parameterized complexity of graph constraint logic

TC Van Der Zanden - arXiv preprint arXiv:1509.02683, 2015 - arxiv.org
Graph constraint logic is a framework introduced by Hearn and Demaine, which provides
several problems that are often a convenient starting point for reductions. We study the …

The perfect matching reconfiguration problem

M Bonamy, N Bousquet, M Heinrich, T Ito… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2019 - arxiv.org
We study the perfect matching reconfiguration problem: Given two perfect matchings of a
graph, is there a sequence of flip operations that transforms one into the other? Here, a flip …

Reconfiguration of dominating sets

A Suzuki, AE Mouawad, N Nishimura - Journal of Combinatorial …, 2016 - Springer
We explore a reconfiguration version of the dominating set problem, where a dominating set
in a graph G is a set S of vertices such that each vertex is either in S or has a neighbour in S …

On solution discovery via reconfiguration

MR Fellows, M Grobler, N Megow, AE Mouawad… - ECAI 2023, 2023 - ebooks.iospress.nl
The dynamics of real-world applications and systems require efficient methods for improving
infeasible solutions or restoring corrupted ones by making modifications to the current state …

Token jumping in minor-closed classes

N Bousquet, A Mary, A Parreau - International Symposium on …, 2017 - Springer
Given two k-independent sets I and J of a graph G, one can ask if it is possible to transform
the one into the other in such a way that, at any step, we replace one vertex of the current …
