Finding a path of superlogarithmic length
We consider the problem of nding a long, simple path in anundirected graph.W e present a polynomial-time algorithm that ndsa path of length (log L/ log log L)2, where L denotes the length ofthe longest simple path in the graph.This establishes the performanceratio O|V |(log log |V |/ log |V |)2 for the Longest Path problem, whereV denotes the graphs vertices.
