Overview
abstract
Cograph Editing is to find for a given graph G = (V,E) a set of at most k edge additions and deletions that transform G into a cograph. The computational complexity of this problem was open in the past. In this paper, we show that this problem is NP-hard, and present a parameterized algorithm based on a refined search tree technique with a running time of O(4.612k + |V|4.5)), which improves the trivial algorithm of running time O(6k + |V|4.5). 2011 Springer-Verlag.
