I have manged to find a paper that gives an algorithm for detecting
elementary cycles in O(N+M(C+1) time, where N is the number of vertices,
M is number of edges and C the number of elementary cycles. Does anyone
know of an improvement on this algorithm.


The paper : "a search strategy for the elementary cycles of a directed graph"
by J.L. Szwarcfiter and P.E. Lauer, BIT 16 1976 192--204.
