有界度有向多重图的反馈弧集最小规模的上界

Upper bounds on minimum size of feedback arc set of directed multigraphs with bounded degree

Gregory Gutin, Hui Lei, Anders Yeo, Yacong Zhou

AI总结:

本研究针对最大度不超过5的有向多重图,证明了其反馈弧集最小规模满足${\rm fas}(D)\le m/3$的紧上界,强化了Hanauer的猜想并改进了已有结果,同时给出了按顶点数计的紧界常数$c$的范围。

摘要:

有向多重图(oriented multigraph)是指不含有向2-环的有向多重图。令${\rm fas}(D)$表示有向多重图$D$中反馈弧集的最小规模。顶点的度是其出度与入度之和。已有多篇论文针对最大度不超过某一常数的有向多重图$D$,得到了${\rm fas}(D)$的上界。Hanauer(2017)提出猜想:对于每个具有$n$个顶点且最大度不超过5的有向多重图$D$,都有${\rm fas}(D)\le 2.5n/3$。我们证明了该猜想的一个更强版本:对于每个具有$m$条弧且最大度不超过5的有向多重图$D$,都有${\rm fas}(D)\le m/3$成立。该界是紧的,且改进了Berger和Shor(1990,1997)提出的界。确定常数$c$的值是一个值得研究的问题,使得对于每个具有$n$个顶点且最大度不超过5的有向多重图$D$,都有${\rm fas}(D)\le cn$且该界是紧的。我们证明了$\frac{5}{7}\le c \le \frac{24}{29} < \frac{2.5}{3}$。

英文摘要:

An oriented multigraph is a directed multigraph without directed 2-cycles. Let ${\rm fas}(D)$ denote the minimum size of a feedback arc set in an oriented multigraph $D$. The degree of a vertex is the sum of its out- and in-degrees. In several papers, upper bounds for ${\rm fas}(D)$ were obtained for oriented multigraphs $D$ with maximum degree upper-bounded by a constant. Hanauer (2017) conjectured that ${\rm fas}(D)\le 2.5n/3$ for every oriented multigraph $D$ with $n$ vertices and maximum degree at most 5. We prove a strengthening of the conjecture: ${\rm fas}(D)\le m/3$ holds for every oriented multigraph $D$ with $m$ arcs and maximum degree at most 5. This bound is tight and improves a bound of Berger and Shor (1990,1997). It would be interesting to determine $c$ such that ${\rm fas}(D)\le cn$ for every oriented multigraph $D$ with $n$ vertices and maximum degree at most 5 such that the bound is tight. We show that $\frac{5}{7}\le c \le \frac{24}{29} < \frac{2.5}{3}$.
