摘要: Motivated by a strongly growing interest in graph anonymization, we study the NP-hard Degree Anonymity problem asking whether can be made k-anonymous adding at most given number of edges. Herein, is if for every vertex there are least k - 1 other vertices same degree. Our algorithmic results shed light on performance quality popular heuristic due to Liu and Terzi ACM SIGMOD 2008]; particular, show that provides optimal solutions "many" edges need added. Based this, develop polynomial-time data reduction yielding polynomial-size kernel parameterized maximum In terms complexity analysis, this result sense tight since also already H-index three, implying NP-hardness smaller parameters such as average degree degeneracy.
