Abstract

We analyze edge dominating set from a parameterized perspective. More specifically, we prove that this problem is in ${\mathcal{FPT}}$ for general (weighted) graphs. The corresponding algorithms rely on enumeration techniques. In particular, we show how the use of compact representations may speed up the decision algorithm.
