Abstract
Many NP-hard problems on graphs are known to be tractable if we restrict the input to have a certain decomposition into a tree-like structure. Width parameters of graphs are measures on how easy it is to decompose the input graph into a tree-like structure. The tree-width is one of the most well-studied width parameters of graphs and the rank-width is a generalization of tree-width into dense graphs. This talk will present a survey on width parameters of graphs such as tree-width and rank-width and discuss known algorithms to find a decomposition of an input graph into such tree-like structures efficiently.
