Abstract

To decide if the {sc parameterized feedback vertex set} problem in directed graph is fixed-parameter tractable is a long standing open problem. In this paper, we prove that the {sc parameterized feedback vertex set} in directed graph is fixed-parameter tractable and give the first FPT algorithm of running time $O((1.48k)^kn^{O(1)})$ for it. As the {sc feedback arc set} problem in directed graph can be transformed to a {sc feedback vertex set} problem in directed graph, hence we also show that the {sc parameterized feedback arc set} problem can be solved in time of $O((1.48k)^kn^{O(1)})$.
