The Directed Feedback Vertex Set (DFVS) problem takes as input a directed graph and seeks a smallest vertex set that hits all cycles in . This is one of Karp’s 21 -complete problems. Resolving the parameterized complexity status of DFVS was a long-standing open problem until Chen et al. (2008) showed its fixed-parameter tractability via a -time algorithm, where .
Here we show fixed-parameter tractability of two generalizations of DFVS:
- •
Find a smallest vertex set such that every strong component of has size at most : we give an algorithm solving this problem in time . This generalizes an algorithm by Xiao (2017) for the undirected version of the problem.
- •
Find a smallest vertex set such that every non-trivial strong component of is 1-out-regular: we give an algorithm solving this problem in time .

有向反馈顶点集泛化的参数化算法
有向反馈顶点集(DFVS) 问题将有向图作为输入 并寻找一个最小的顶点集 击中所有周期. 这是卡普的 21 个之一- 完整的问题。在 Chen 等人之前,解决 DFVS 的参数化复杂性状态是一个长期悬而未决的问题。(2008 年)通过-时间算法,其中.
在这里,我们展示了 DFVS 的两个推广的固定参数可处理性:
- •
找到一个最小的顶点集使得每一个强大的组成部分最多有大小 : 我们给出一个算法及时解决这个问题. 这概括了 Xiao (2017) 针对该问题的无向版本提出的算法。
- •
找到一个最小的顶点集这样每个非平凡的强成分is 1-out-regular: 我们给出一个算法及时解决这个问题.
