We study the following DAG Partitioning problem: given a directed acyclic graph with arc weights, delete a set of arcs of minimum total weight so that each of the resulting connected components has exactly one sink. We prove that the problem is hard to approximate in a strong sense: If $\mathcal P\neq \mathcal{NP}$ then for every fixed e>0, there is no (n1−e)-approximation algorithm, even if the input graph is restricted to have unit weight arcs, maximum out-degree three, and two sinks. We also present a polynomial time algorithm for solving the DAG Partitioning problem in graphs with bounded pathwidth.
