An Improved Approximation Algorithm for the Matching Augmentation Problem

Authors: Joseph Cheriyan, Robert Cummings, Jack Dippel, and Jasper Zhu

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 212, 32nd International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation (ISAAC 2021)

Abstract
We present a 5/3-approximation algorithm for the matching augmentation problem (MAP): given a multi-graph with edges of cost either zero or one such that the edges of cost zero form a matching, find a 2-edge connected spanning subgraph (2-ECSS) of minimum cost. A 7/4-approximation algorithm for the same problem was presented recently, see Cheriyan, et al., "The matching augmentation problem: a 7/4-approximation algorithm," Math. Program., 182(1):315-354, 2020. Our improvement is based on new algorithmic techniques, and some of these may lead to advances on related problems.
