摘要
The densest k-subgraph problem asks for a k-vertex subgraph with the maximum number of edges. This problem is NP-hard on bipartite graphs, chordal graphs, and planar graphs. A 3-approximation algorithm is known for chordal graphs. We present 3/2-approximation algorithms for proper interval graphs and bipartite permutation graphs. The latter result relies on a new characterisation of bipartite permutation graphs which may be of independent interest. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
