23. august – What We Can Learn from Algorithms: Insights from Parameterized Complexity
Abstract: In this talk, we’ll look at a few problems that seem simple at first but turn out to be surprisingly complex. We’ll focus on two real-world problems, examining them both from a traditional view and through the lens of parameterized complexity. We’ll discuss what makes a problem "easy" or "hard" and how algorithms can show us when brutef orce is the only option. We’ll also see how parameterized complexity can provide efficient algorithms that are exponential only in a small parameter, making them practical to use. This approach helps us better understand and solve tough computational problems.
