Abstract: We consider the problem (MSSS) of finding a strongly connected spanning subgraph with the minimum number of arcs in a strongly connected digraph. This problem is NP-hard for general digraphs since it generalizes the hamiltonian cycle problem. We show that the problem is polynomially solvable for quasi-transitive digraphs. We describe the minimum number of arcs in such a spanning subgraph of a quasi-transitive digraph in terms of the path covering number. Our proofs are based on a number of... (Update)

.... Recently it was shown that the MSSS problem is solvable in polynomial time for several classes which contain tournaments as a subclass [4, 5]. In the last section of this paper we also discuss briefly some approximation algorithms for this problem for general digraphs. Suppose...

...can be solved e#ciently for a much larger superclass of semicomplete digraphs than just quasi transitive digraphs. We remark that in [9], the MSSS problem was solved for various generalizations of tournaments. In particular polynomial algorithms were given for the classes of...
