Abstract

In this paper we present fixed-parameter algorithms for the problem Dual-given two hypergraphs, decide if one is the transversal hypergraph of the other-and related problems. In the first part, we consider the number of edges of the hypergraphs, the maximum degree of a vertex, and a vertex complementary degree as our parameters. In the second part, we use an Apriori approach to obtain FPT results for generating all maximal independent sets of a hypergraph, all minimal transversals of a hypergraph, and all maximal frequent sets where parameters bound the intersections or unions of edges.
