In graph theory, a vertex cover (sometimes node cover) of a graph is a set of vertices that includes at least one endpoint of every edge of the graph....

graph theory, a vertex cover in a hypergraph is a set of vertices, such that every hyperedge of the hypergraph contains at least one vertex of that set....

Cover. Vertex cover is a special case of Hitting Set. Edge cover is a special case of Set Cover. Geometric set cover is a special case of Set Cover when...

vertex cover. Therefore, the sum of the size of the largest independent set α ( G ) {\displaystyle \alpha (G)} and the size of a minimum vertex cover...

an equivalence between the maximum matching problem and the minimum vertex cover problem in bipartite graphs. It was discovered independently, also in...

In graph theory, an edge cover of a graph is a set of edges such that every vertex of the graph is incident to at least one edge of the set. In computer...

perfect matching) has a vertex cover of size n + k {\displaystyle n+k} . The odd cycle transversal can be transformed into a vertex cover by including both...

cover. Hence, these vertices “cover” all the edges. We wish to find the vertex cover that has the smallest possible number of vertices. Vertex covers...

In discrete mathematics, and more specifically in graph theory, a vertex (plural vertices) or node is the fundamental unit of which graphs are formed:...

equal in size to the minimum vertex cover. Via this result, the minimum vertex cover, maximum independent set, and maximum vertex biclique problems may be...
