Abstract
We study the parameterized complexity of finding shortest s-t-paths with an additional fairness requirement. The task is to compute a shortest path in a vertex-colored graph where each color appears (roughly) equally often in the solution. We provide an almost complete picture of the parameterized complexity landscape of the problem with respect to structural parameters by showing a tetrachotomy including polynomial kernels, fixed-parameter tractability, XP-time algorithms (and W[1]-hardness), and para-NP-hardness.
