Title
A 4/3-approximation algorithm for minimum 3-edge-connectivity
Abstract
The minimum cardinality 3-edge-connected spanning subgraph problem is considered. An approximation algorithm with a performance ratio of 4/3 ≈ 1.33 is presented. This improves the previous best ratio of 3/2 for the problem. The algorithm also works on multigraphs and guarantees the same approximation ratio.
