摘要
We show how to compute a maximum cardinality matching in a bipartite graph of n vertices in time O(n1.5 square-root m/log n). For dense graphs this improves on the O(square-root n m) algorithm of Hopcroft and Karp. The speed-up is obtained by an application of the fast adjacency matrix scanning technique of Cheriyan, Hagerup and Mehlhorn.
