Abstract

We consider the Directed Anchored k-Core problem, where the task is for a given directed graph G and integers b,k and p, to find an induced subgraph H with at least p vertices (the core) such that all but at most b vertices (the anchors) of H have in-degree at least k. We undertake a systematic analysis of the computational complexity of the Directed Anchored k-Core problem.
