2SCENT: An Efficient Algorithm for Enumerating All Simple Temporal Cycles
Summary: 2SCENT enumerates all simple temporal cycles by extending a classic static-cycle algorithm with temporal ordering and Bloom-filter-based root filtering. It achieves up to 300× speedups over prior work and scales to millions of nodes and hundreds of millions of interactions. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
