• Tony Huynh, A tight Erdős-Pósa function for planar minors

    Room B109 IBS (기초과학연구원)

    Let H be a planar graph. By a classical result of Robertson and Seymour, there is a function f(k) such that for all k and all graphs G, either G contains k vertex-disjoint subgraphs each containing H as a minor, or there is a subset X of at most f(k) vertices such that G−X has

    I will discuss the Ramsey problem for {x,y,z:x+y=p(z)} for polynomials p over ℤ. This is joint work with Peter Pach and Csaba Sandor.

    Room B232 IBS (기초과학연구원)

    A celebrated conjecture of Sidorenko and Erdős–Simonovits states that, for all bipartite graphs H, quasirandom graphs contain asymptotically the minimum number of copies of H taken over all graphs with the same order and edge density. This conjecture has attracted considerable interest over the last decade and is now known to hold for a broad

    Room B232 IBS (기초과학연구원)

    Problems such as Vertex Cover and Multiway Cut have been well-studied in parameterized complexity. Cygan et al. 2011 drastically improved the running time of several problems including Multiway Cut and Almost 2SAT by employing LP-guided branching and aiming for FPT algorithms parameterized above LP lower bounds. Since then, LP-guided branching has been studied in depth
