Testing k-Edge-Connectivity of Digraphs
Yuichi Yoshida, Hiro Ito (Kyoto Univ.) COMP2007-20
Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) In this paper, we show constant time algorithm for testing whether a given degree-bounded digraph is $k$-edge-connected or $\epsilon$-far from k$-edge-connected.

A digraph of $n$ vertices with degree bound $d$ is $\epsilon$-far from $k$-edge-connected, if at least $\epsilon dn$ edges have to be added or deleted to make the graph $k$-edge-connected, preserving the degree bound.

Our algorithm is a testing algorithm in the sense of ``Property Testing''.
Property testing is defined as follows:
If the input graph is $k$-edge-connected, it must output ``Accept'' with probability at least $2/3$,
and if the input graph is $\epsilon$-far from $k$-edge-connected,
it must output ``Reject'' with probability at least $2/3$.
It can output any for a graph which is neither $k$-edge-connected nor $\epsilon$-far from $k$-edge-connected.
Since testing can be regarded as reduction of decision, the complexity of testing algorithms is expected to be smaller than that of decision algorithms.
This paper presents an $O\left(d\left(\frac{c}{\epsilon d}\right)^{k}\log\frac{1}{\epsilon d}\right)$$($$c>1$ is a constant$)$ time algorithm for ($k$-1)-edge connected graphs and an $O\left(d\left(\frac{ck}{\epsilon d}\right)^{k}\log\frac{k}{\epsilon d}\right)$$($$c>1$ is a constant$)$ time algorithm for general graphs.
