Abstract

Given an integer d and a weighted tree T, we show how to find in polynomial time a minimum d-transversal of all maximum-weight stable sets in T, i.e., a set of vertices of minimum size having at least d vertices in common with every maximum-weight stable set. Our proof relies on new structural results for maximum-weight stable sets on trees.
