Abstract
In the previous chapter, we saw that many graph problems that are hard in general become tractable when restricted to input graphs of bounded tree width. We have also seen examples of hard problems that become tractable on graphs of bounded degree (the parameterized dominating set problem is an example, see Corollary 1.20).
