For a fixed value of a parameter k≥2, the Maximum k-Edge-Colorable Subgraph Problem consists in finding k edge-disjoint matchings in a simple graph, with the goal of maximising the total number of edges used. The problem is known to be APX-hard for all k, but there exist polynomial time approximation algorithms with approximation ratios tending to 1 as k tends to infinity. Herein we propose improved approximation algorithms for the cases of k=2 and k=3, having approximation ratios of 5/6 and 4/5, respectively.
