  • Abstract
    Let G=(V, A) be a directed, planar graph, let s, t ∈ V, s≠t, and let ca>0 be the capacity of an arc a∈A. The problem is to find a maximum flow from s to t in G: subject to these capacities. The fastest algorithm known so far requires 𝒪(|V|·3√|V|·log|V|) time, whereas the algorithm introduced in this paper requires only 𝒪(|V|log|V|) time
