Bounded fractionality of the multiflow feasibility problem for demand graph K 3 + K 3 and related

چکیده

We consider the multiflow feasibility problem whose demand graph is the vertex-disjoint union of two triangles. We show that this problem has a 1/12-integral solution or no solution under the Euler condition. This solves a conjecture raised by Karzanov, and completes the classification of the demand graphs having bounded fractionality. We reduce this problem to the multiflow maximization problem whose terminal weight is the graph metric of the complete bipartite graph Kn,m, and show that it always has a 1/12-integral optimal multiflow for every inner Eulerian graph.

Bounded fractionality of the multiflow feasibility problem for demand graph K3+K3 and related maximization problems

We consider the multiflow feasibility problem whose demand graph is the vertexdisjoint union of two triangles. We show that this problem has a 1/12-integral solution whenever it is feasible and satisfies the Euler condition. This solves a conjecture raised by Karzanov, and completes the classification of the demand graphs having bounded fractionality. We reduce this problem to the multiflow max...

Tight extensions of distance spaces and the dual fractionality of undirected multiflow problems

In this paper, we give a complete characterization of the class of weighted maximum multiflow problems whose dual polyhedra have bounded fractionality. This is a common generalization of two fundamental results of Karzanov. The first is a characterization of commodity graphs H for which the dual of maximum multiflow problem with respect to H has bounded fractionality, and the second is a charac...

On fractionality of the path packing problem

Given an undirected graph G = (N,E), a subset T of its nodes and an undirected graph (T, S), G and (T, S) together are often called a network. A collection of paths in G whose end-pairs lie in S is called an integer multiflow. When these paths are allowed to have fractional weight, under the constraint that the total weight of the paths traversing a single edge does not exceed 1, we have a frac...

Metric packing for K 3 + K 3 Hiroshi HIRAI

In this paper, we consider the metric packing problem for the commodity graph of disjoint two triangles K3+K3, which is dual to the multiflow feasibility problem for the commodity graph K3 +K3. We prove a strengthening of Karzanov’s conjecture concerning quarter-integral packings by certain bipartite metrics.
