Parameterized Algorithms

“I enjoyed reading this book, which is a good textbook for graduate and advanced undergraduate students of computer science. Each chapter contains sufficient exercises with hints whenever necessary and helpful bibliographic notes. I found the references quite comprehensive, and the index was quite useful. … this is the best book I have seen on the topic. I strongly recommend it.” (Soubhik Chakraborty, Computing Reviews, April, 2017)

“The style of the book is clear, and the material is well positioned to be accessible by graduate students and advanced undergraduate students. The exercises and hints provide a good ground for self-study, while bibliographic notes point to original papers and related work. Overall, this is an excellent book that can be useful to graduate and advanced undergraduate students either as a self-study text or as part of a course.” (Alexander Tzanov, Computing Reviews, February, 2016)

“This is the most recent and most up-to-date textbook on parameterized algorithms, one of the major thrusts in algorithmics in recent years. … this new textbook has more than twice as many pages shows the development of the field. … This book does a very good job at balancing the necessary mathematical rigour with a nice presentation of the results.” (Henning Fernau, Mathematical Reviews, February, 2016)

“This book serves as an introduction to the field of parameterized algorithms and complexity accessible to graduate students and advanced undergraduate students. It contains a clean and coherent account of some of the most recent tools and techniques in the area.” (Paulo Mbunga, zbMATH 1334.90001, 2016)
