• An Algorithmic Meta-Theorem for Graph Modification to Planarity and FOL 

      Fomin, Fedor; Golovach, Petr; Stamoulis, Giannos; Thilikos, Dimitrios M. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      In general, a graph modification problem is defined by a graph modification operation ⊠ and a target graph property 𝒫. Typically, the modification operation ⊠ may be vertex removal, edge removal, edge contraction, or edge ...
    • Hitting Topological Minor Models in Planar Graphs is Fixed Parameter Tractable 

      Golovach, Petr; Thilikos, Dimitrios; Stamoulis, Giannos (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      For a finite collection of graphs F, the F-TM-Deletion problem has as input an n-vertex graph G and an integer k and asks whether there exists a set S ⊆ V(G) with |S| ≤ k such that G \ S does not contain any of the graphs ...
