Our contributions are twofold: (1) First we show that the algorithmic question is reducible to the problem of a logarithmic number of min-plus matrix multiplications of n×n-matrices, where n is the number of vertices of the graph. (2) Second, when the weights are nonnegative, we present the first (1+ε)-approximation algorithm for the problem and the running time of our algorithm is Õ(nωlog3(nW/ε)/ε),1 where O(nω) is the time required for the classic n×n-matrix multiplication and W is the maximum value of the weights. With an additional O(log(nW/ε)) factor in space a cycle with approximately optimal weight can be computed within the same time bound.","lang":"eng"}],"publisher":"Elsevier","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","oa":1,"external_id":{"arxiv":["1307.4473"]},"year":"2014","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"day":"28","date_updated":"2022-09-09T11:50:58Z","article_type":"original","publist_id":"5836","intvolume":"       547","main_file_link":[{"url":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1307.4473","open_access":"1"}],"publication":"Theoretical Computer Science","ec_funded":1,"doi":"10.1016/j.tcs.2014.06.031"}
