Abstract: For many fixed-parameter problems that are trivially solvable in polynomial-time, such as k- DOMINATING SET, essentially no better algorithm is presently known than the one which tries all possible solutions. Other problems, such as k-FEEDBACK VERTEX SET, exhibit fixed-parameter tractability: for each fixed k the problem is solvable in time bounded by a polynomial of degree c, where c is a constant independent of k. We establish the main results of a completeness program which addresses the... (Update)
