Parameterized Computational Feasibility
Abstract
Many natural computational problems have input consisting of two or more parts. For example, the input might consist of a graph and a positive integer. For many natural problems we may view one of the inputs as a parameter and study how the complexity of the problem varies if the parameter is held fixed. For many applications of computational problems involving such a parameter, only a small range of parameter values is of practical significance, so that fixed- parameter complexity is a natural concern. In studying the complexity of such problems, it is therefore important to have a framework in which we can make qualitative distinctions about the contribution of the parameter to the complexity of the problem. In this paper we survey one such framework for investigating parameterized computational complexity and present a number of new results for this theory. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
