Parameterized complexity of multiwinner determination: more effort towards fixed-parameter tractability

We study the parameterized complexity of winner determination problems for three prevalent k -committee selection rules, namely the minimax approval voting (MAV), the proportional approval voting (PAV), and the Chamberlin–Courant’s approval voting (CCAV). It is known that these problems are computat...

Popis
Shrnutí:We study the parameterized complexity of winner determination problems for three prevalent k -committee selection rules, namely the minimax approval voting (MAV), the proportional approval voting (PAV), and the Chamberlin–Courant’s approval voting (CCAV). It is known that these problems are computationally hard. Although they have been studied from the parameterized complexity point of view with respect to several natural parameters, many of them turned out to be W[1]-hard or W[2]-hard. Aiming at obtaining plentiful fixed-parameter algorithms, we revisit these problems by considering more natural single parameters, combined parameters, and structural parameters.
