Abstract

We reduce the problem of finding an augmenting path in a general graph to a reachability problem and show that a slight modification of depth-first search leads to an algorithm for finding such paths. As a consequence, we obtain a straightforward algorithm for maximum matching in general graphs of time complexity O(√nm), where n is the number of nodes and m is the number of edges in the graph.
