Complexity of the cluster deletion problem on cographs and subclasses of chordal graphs |
Description: |
Mario Valencia Pabon We consider the following vertex-partition problem on graphs, known as the CLUSTER DELETION (CD) problem: given a graph with real nonnegative edge weights, partition the vertices into clusters (in this case, cliques) to minimize the total weight of edges outside the clusters. The decision version of this optimization problem is known to be NP-complete even for unweighted graphs and has been studied extensively. In this talk, I will focus on the complexity of the decision CD problem for the family of chordal graphs, showing that it is NP-complete for weighted split graphs, weighted interval graphs and unweighted chordal graphs. We will also see that the problem is NP-complete for weighted cographs. Some polynomial-time solvable cases of the optimization problem will be identified, in particular CD for unweighted cographs, split graphs, unweighted proper interval graphs and weighted block graphs.
This is a joint work with Flavia Bonomo and Guillermo Duràn (University of Buenos Aires). |
