摘要:

最大双保留字符串映射(Max-Duo)问题是最小公共字符串划分(MCSP)问题的补充,MCSP问题在文本压缩和生物信息学等领域都有广泛的应用。$k$ -Max-Duo是Max-Duo的受限版本,其中字母表中的每个字母在每个字符串中出现的次数最多为$k$次,这很容易简化为最大度$Δ\le 6(k-1)$图上的众所周知的最大独立集(MIS)问题。特别是,$2$ -Max-Duo可以使用MIS问题的最新近似算法任意近似于$1.8$。$2$ -Max-Duo被证明是APX-难的,并且最近声称对于任何$ε> 0$都是$(1.6 + ε)$ -近似。在本文中,我们提出了一个顶点度约简技术,在此基础上,我们证明了$2$ -Duo可以近似任意接近$1.4$。

英文摘要:

The maximum duo-preservation string mapping (Max-Duo) problem is the complement of the well studied minimum common string partition (MCSP) problem, both of which have applications in many fields including text compression and bioinformatics. $k$-Max-Duo is the restricted version of Max-Duo, where every letter of the alphabet occurs at most $k$ times in each of the strings, which is readily reduced into the well known maximum independent set (MIS) problem on a graph of maximum degree $Δ\le 6(k-1)$. In particular, $2$-Max-Duo can then be approximated arbitrarily close to $1.8$ using the state-of-the-art approximation algorithm for the MIS problem. $2$-Max-Duo was proved APX-hard and very recently a $(1.6 + ε)$-approximation was claimed, for any $ε> 0$. In this paper, we present a vertex-degree reduction technique, based on which, we show that $2$-Max-Duo can be approximated arbitrarily close to $1.4$.
