Approximating Maximum Weight Cycle Covers in Directed Graphs with Weights Zero and One
2005
Algorithmica
A cycle cover of a graph is a spanning subgraph each node of which is part of exactly one simple cycle. A k-cycle cover is a cycle cover where each cycle has length at least k. Given a complete directed graph with edge weights zero and one, Max-k-DCC(0, 1) is the problem of finding a k-cycle cover with maximum weight. We present a 2 3 approximation algorithm for Max-k-DCC(0, 1) with running time O(n 5/2 ). This algorithm yields a 4 3 approximation algorithm for Min-k-DCC(1, 2) as well.
