contents For the vertex selection problem $(σ,ρ)$-DomSet one is given two fixed sets $σ$ and $ρ$ of integers and the task is to decide whether we can select vertices of the input graph such that, for every selected vertex, the number of selected neighbors is in $σ$ and, for every unselected vertex, the number of selected neighbors is in $ρ$ [Telle, Nord. J. Comp. 1994]. This framework covers many fundamental graph problems such as Independent Set and Dominating Set. We significantly extend the recent result by Focke et al. [SODA 2023] to investigate the case when $σ$ and $ρ$ are two (potentially different) residue classes modulo $m\ge 2$. We study the problem parameterized by treewidth and present an algorithm that solves in time $m^{tw} \cdot n^{O(1)}$ the decision, minimization and maximization version of the problem. This significantly improves upon the known algorithms where for the case $m \ge 3$ not even an explicit running time is known. We complement our algorithm by providing matching lower bounds which state that there is no $(m-ε)^{pw} \cdot n^{O(1)}$-time algorithm parameterized by pathwidth $pw$, unless SETH fails. For $m = 2$, we extend these bounds to the minimization version as the decision version is efficiently solvable.
