Counterexample for the 1-optimal matching algorithm in Gabow's and Tarjan's paper on scaling algorithms for networks
Context I am reading Faster scaling algorithms for network problems by Gabow and Tarjan where I am researching part 2: "Matching and extensions". However, I am a bit confused with the ...

Generate cut $(A,B)$ in edge-colored graph $(V,E_1 \cup E_2)$ such that there are more red than white crossings, i.e $|E_1(A,B)| > |E_2(A,B)|$
Let $G=(V,E)$ be graph. Recall that a cut of $G$ is (or can uniquely be identified with) a pair $(A,B)$ of nonempty subsets of $V$ which partition it. Given a cut $(A,B)$, let $E(A,B) := \{(a,b) \in ...

H-representation of convex hull
Consider a set of polytopes $P_j\;\;j=1,2,\dots,r$ with the same structure as follows: $P_j=\Big\{(x_{j1},\dots, x_{jt})\Big| \sum_{i=1}^t x_{ji}=1, x_{ji}\in [a_{ji},b_{ji}]\subseteq [0,1]\Big\}$ ...

Approximation algorithm for graph problem
In the process of trying to create an approximation algorithm for the following problem. Let $G = (V,E)$ be a graph, $c_e, c_{iv} \ge 0$, for $e \in E$, $i \in L$, and $v \in V$, where $L$ is a ...

Linear Programming with Modulo Linear Constraints
Given $G = (V,E)$ I can formulate a relaxation of graph $K$-coloring as: find feasible point s.t. $\min \sum_{ij}v_{ij}$ for all $(i,j)$ in $E$ $z_{ij} \le (c_i - c_j) \bmod k$ (i) $z_{ij} \le (...
