In the context of comparative analysis of protein-protein interaction graphs, we use a graph-based formalism to detect the preservation of a given protein complex
G
in the protein-protein interaction graph
H
of another species with respect to (w.r.t.) orthologous proteins. Two problems are considered: the
Exact
-(
μ
G
,
μ
H
)-
Matching
problem and the
Max
-(
μ
G
,
μ
H
) problem, where
μ
G
(resp.
μ
H
) denotes in both problems the maximum number of orthologous proteins in
H
(resp.
G
) of a protein in
G
(resp.
H
). Following [FLV04], the
Exact
-(
μ
G
,
μ
H
)-
Matching
problem asks for an injective homomorphism of
G
to
H
w.r.t. orthologous proteins. The optimization version is called the
Max
-(
μ
G
,
μ
H
)-
Matching
problem and is concerned with finding an injective mapping of a graph
G
to a graph
H
w.r.t. orthologous proteins that matches as many edges of
G
as possible. For both problems, the emphasis here is clearly on bounded degree graphs and extremal small values of parameters
μ
G
and
μ
H
.
