Proving NP-hardness for clique-width I: non-approximability of sequential clique-width

Revisions: 1

Clique-width is a graph parameter, defined by a composition mechanism
for vertex-labeled graphs, which measures in a certain sense the
complexity of a graph. Hard graph problems (e.g., problems
expressible in Monadic Second Order Logic, that includes NP-hard
problems) can be solved efficiently for graphs of certified small
clique-width. It ... more >>>
