Overview
A dynamic programming algorithm that can compute shortest path in graphs with negative length edges.
There are n2 subproblems, and we might spend more than linear time for each subproblem: we have to do brute force search through a list of candidates that might be super-constant: each arc that comes into the vertex v provides a candidate for what the correct solution to the subproblem may be, and the number of candidates is proportional to the degree of vertex v. The running time is O(mn). In a sparse graph, m=O(n), and in a dense graph is O(n2).
