Abstract: We describe several combinatorial algorithms for the maximum directed cut problem. Among our results is a simple linear time 9/20-approximation algorithm for the problem, and a somewhat slower 1/2-approximation algorithm that uses a bipartite matching routine. No better combinatorial approximation algorithms are known even for the easier maximum cut problem for undirected graphs. Our algorithms do not use linear programming, nor semidefinite programming. They are based on the observation that... (Update)
