Abstract

This paper is concerned with the approximation complexity of the Connected Path Vertex Cover problem. The problem is a connected variant of the more basic problem of path vertex cover; in k-Path Vertex Cover it is required to compute a minimum vertex set \(C\subseteq V\) in a given undirected graph \(G=(V,E)\) such that no path on k vertices remains when all the vertices in C are removed from G. Connected k-Path Vertex Cover (k-CPVC) additionally requires C to induce a connected subgraph in G.
