چکیده

We give an incremental polynomial time algorithm for enumerating the vertices of any polyhedron P(A, 1 ̄ ) = {x ∈ R | Ax ≥ 1 ̄ , x ≥ 0 ̄ }, when A is a totally unimodular matrix. Our algorithm is based on decomposing the hypergraph transversal problem for unimodular hypergraphs using Seymour’s decomposition of totally unimodular matrices, and may be of independent interest.

On the Shadow Simplex Method for Curved Polyhedra

We study the simplex method over polyhedra satisfying certain “discrete curvature” lower bounds, which enforce that the boundary always meets vertices at sharp angles. Motivated by linear programs with totally unimodular constraint matrices, recent results of Bonifas et al. (Discrete Comput. Geom. 52(1):102–115, 2014), Brunsch and Röglin (Automata, languages, and programming. Part I, pp. 279–29...

On the discrepancy of strongly unimodular matrices

A (0, 1) matrix A is strongly unimodular if A is totally unimodular and every matrix obtained from A by setting a nonzero entry to 0 is also totally unimodular. Here we consider the linear discrepancy of strongly unimodular matrices. It was proved by Lováz, et.al. [5] that for any matrix A, lindisc(A) ≤ herdisc(A). (1) When A is the incidence matrix of a set-system, a stronger inequality holds:...

A Generalization of Tutte's Characterization of Totally Unimodular Matrices

An integral square matrix A is called principally unimodular (PU if every nonsingular principal submatrix is unimodular (that is, has determinant \1). Principal unimodularity was originally studied with regard to skew-symmetric matrices; see [2, 4, 5]; here we consider symmetric matrices. Our main theorem is a generalization of Tutte's excluded minor characterization of totally unimodular matri...

A characterization of unimodular orientations of simple graphs

Let G be a simple graph, and consider an orientation of the edges of G. Where V is the vertex-set of G, let A = (A,, : u, w E V) be the integral antisymmetric (0, +_ 1)-matrix such that A,,, = 1 if and only if VW is an edge of G directed from u to w. The orientation of G is said to be unimodular if for every WC V the determinant of the submatrix (A,, : u, w E W) is 0 or 1. For example, it is kn...

Principally Unimodular Skew-Symmetric Matrices

A square matrix is principally unimodular if every principal submatrix has determinant 0 or 1. Let A be a symmetric (0; 1)-matrix, with a zero diagonal. A PU-orientation of A is a skew-symmetric signing of A that is PU. If A 0 is a PU-orientation of A, then, by a certain decomposition of A, we can construct every PU-orientation of A from A 0. This construction is based on the fact that the PU-o...
