Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to design approximation algorithms for tree-width, branch-width, bandwidth, path-width, and so on by considering its duality. As the result of the study, we showed that the distance path width of AT-free graphs can be approximated within a constant factor in polynomial time. Moreover, by considering the duality, we gave lower bounds for tree-width for Cartesian products of graphs, and extended the notion of forbidden structure for path-width to matroids.
