Projekt leírás

It is known that the SHORTEST ODD PATH problem is NP-hard for conservative weights [1]. When the negative edges form a tree, a polynomial algorithm exists [2], furthermore, [2] also gave FPT algorithms with several parameters (number of negative edges, tree-width) to the problem. In this project, the goal is to give similar FPT algorithms to the SHORTEST q-MOD-m path problem.
