Reduction Rules and ILP Are All You Need: Minimal Directed Feedback Vertex Set

Abstract

This note describes the development of an exact solver for Minimal Directed Feedback Vertex Set as part of the PACE 2022 competition. The solver is powered largely by aggressively trying to reduce the DFVS problem to a Minimal Cover problem, and applying reduction rules adapted from Vertex Cover literature. The resulting problem is solved as an Integer Linear Program (ILP) using SCIP. The resulting solver performed the second-best in the competition, although a bug at submission time disqualified it. As an additional note, we describe a new vertex cover reduction generalizing the Desk reduction rule.
