A $2$-Approximation for Directed Feedback Vertex Set in Locally Semicomplete and Quasi-Transitive Digraphs
This work achieves the first non-trivial constant-factor approximation for \textsc{DFVS} on \textsf{LSD}s, even in the unweighted setting, and improves the recent deterministic $9/4$-approximation of Ghorbani and Mnich~[ICALP'26].
