Abstract

A first polynomial time algorithm for the computation of the jump number of a convex bipartite graph is presented. The algorithm uses dynamic programming methods.

Part of the work has been done, while the author visited the Department of Mathematics of the Friedrich-Schiller-University of Jena in March 1990. Most of the work has been done while the author was with the Computer Science Department of the University of Bonn
