Abstract:

We present an algorithm that generates all (inclusion-wise) minimal feedback vertex sets of a directed graph G=(V,E). The feedback vertex sets of G are generated with a polynomial delay of O(|V|2(|V|+|E|)). Variants of the algorithm generate all minimal solutions for the undirected case and the directed feedback arc set problem, both with a polynomial delay of O(|V|,|E|,(|V|+|E|).
