A Simple 1-1/e Approximation for Oblivious Bipartite Matching


Abstract in English

We study the oblivious matching problem, which aims at finding a maximum matching on a graph with unknown edge set. Any algorithm for the problem specifies an ordering of the vertex pairs. The matching is then produced by probing the pairs following the ordering, and including a pair if both of them are unmatched and there exists an edge between them. The unweighted (Chan et al. (SICOMP 2018)) and the vertex-weighted (Chan et al. (TALG 2018
