Computing the Longest Path Length Distribution Function of DAGs with Small Treewidth and Random Edge Lengths
Ei Ando (Senshu Univ.) COMP2021-20
Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Consider the problem of computing the longest path length
in directed acyclic graphs (DAGs).
It is well known that the problem can be solved efficiently
when the edge lengths are static values.
However, if we assume that the edge lengths are the mutually
independent and uniformly distributed random variables,
the problem is known to be $#P$-hard.
Here we present a deterministic approximation algorithm
for the problem.
Given a DAG $G=(V,E)$ and that the treewidth of its underlying
undirected graph is bounded by a
constant $k$, then our algorithm finishes in $Oleft((3k+2)^2 nleft(frac{(6k+6)mn}{epsilon}right)^{9k^2+15k+6}right)$ time.
Our algorithm is a fully polynomial time approximation
scheme (FPTAS).
