Abstract The Maximum Cycle Packing problem is an important class of NP-hard problems,
which has lots of applications in many fields. In this paper, we study Parameterized Planar
Vertex-Disjoint Cycle Packing problem, which is to find k vertex-disjoint cycles in a given
planar graph. The current best kernel size for this problem is 1209 k-1317 1209 k-1317.
Based on properties of maximal cycle packing, small cycles, degree-2 paths, and new
reduction rules given, a kernel of size 415 k-814 415 k-814 is presented for Parameterized …
