Apply Sorting Algorithms to FAST Problem
FAST problem is finding minimum feedback arc set problem in tournaments. In this paper we present some algorithms that are similar to sorting algorithms for FAST problem and we analyze them. We present Pseudo_InsertionSort algorithm for FAST problem and we show that average number of all backward edges in output of that is equal to ((n^2-5n+8)/4)-2^(1-n). We introduce Pseudo_MergeSort algorithm and we find the probability of being backward for an edge. Finally we introduce other algorithms for this problem.
