On Hypergraph and Graph Isomorphism with Bounded Color Classes

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNTCS,volume 3884))

Abstract

Using logspace counting classes we study the computational complexity of hypergraph and graph isomorphism where the vertex sets have bounded color classes for certain specific bounds. We also give a polynomial-time algorithm for hypergraph isomorphism for bounded color classes of arbitrary size.
