Abstract: A commonly studied means of parameterizing graph problems is the deletion distance from triviality (Guo et al. 2004), which counts vertices that need to be deleted from a graph to place it in some class for which efficient algorithms are known. In the context of graph isomorphism, we define triviality to mean a graph with maximum degree bounded by a constant, as such graph classes admit polynomial-time isomorphism tests. We generalise deletion distance to a measure we call elimination distance to triviality, based on elimination trees or tree-depth decompositions. We establish that graph canonisation, and thus graph isomorphism, is FPT when parameterized by elimination distance to bounded degree, extending results of Bouland et al. (2012).
