不可相交割盖的对偶半积分及其在最大半积分流中的应用

Dual Half-integrality for Uncrossable Cut Cover and its Application to Maximum Half-Integral Flow

Naveen Garg, Nikhil Kumar

摘要:

给定一个边权图和一个森林$F$,$\textit{2-edge connectivity augmentation problem}$的任务是选取一个最小权边集$E'$,使得$E'\cup F$的每个连通分支都是2-边连通的. Williamson等人利用原始-对偶模式给出了该问题的2-近似算法(WGMV)。我们表明,当边缘权重是积分,WGMV程序可以修改,以获得一个半积分对偶。2-边连通性扩充问题与图中的路由流有一个有趣的联系,其中供应和需求的联合是平面的。对偶的半整性导致一个紧的2-近似最大半积分流最小多割定理。

英文摘要:

Given an edge weighted graph and a forest $F$, the $\textit{2-edge connectivity augmentation problem}$ is to pick a minimum weighted set of edges, $E'$, such that every connected component of $E'\cup F$ is 2-edge connected. Williamson et al. gave a 2-approximation algorithm (WGMV) for this problem using the primal-dual schema. We show that when edge weights are integral, the WGMV procedure can be modified to obtain a half-integral dual. The 2-edge connectivity augmentation problem has an interesting connection to routing flow in graphs where the union of supply and demand is planar. The half-integrality of the dual leads to a tight 2-approximate max-half-integral-flow min-multicut theorem.
