Boolean-width of graphs
We introduce the graph parameter boolean-width, related to the number of different unions of neighborhoods–Boolean sums of neighborhoods–across a cut of a graph. For many graph problems, this number is the runtime bottleneck when using a divide-and-conquer approach. For an n -vertex graph given with...

| Shrnutí: | We introduce the graph parameter boolean-width, related to the number of different unions of neighborhoods–Boolean sums of neighborhoods–across a cut of a graph. For many graph problems, this number is the runtime bottleneck when using a divide-and-conquer approach. For an

Boolean-width is bounded on the same classes of graphs as clique-width. boolean-width is similar to rank-width, which is related to the number of
