摘要
We describe an algorithm for the dominating set problem with time complexity O((4g +40)(k)n(2)) for graphs of bounded genus g greater than or equal to 1, where k is the size of the set. It has previously been shown that this problem is fixed parameter tractable for planar graphs. We give a simpler proof for the previous O(8(k)n(2)) result for planar graphs. Our method is a refinement of the earlier techniques. (C) 2004 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
