چکیده

Many problems that can be correctly solved by greedy algorithms can be described in terms of an abstract combinatorial object called a matroid. Matroids were first described in 1935 by the mathematician Hassler Whitney as a combinatorial generalization of linear independence of vectors—‘matroid’ means ‘something sort of like a matrix’. A matroid M is a finite collection of finite sets that satisfies three axioms:

There are two main topics we cover in this lecture. First, we introduce and study matroids a generalization of spanning trees and the notion of independence that embody the greedy algorithm we saw last class. Second, we start a new problem, the maximum ow problem. In some sense, todays lecture is about one of the easiest and hardest problems in combinatorial optimization for which we have reaso...
