Antiwebs are rank-perfect

چکیده

We discuss a nested collection of three superclasses of perfect graphs: near-perfect, rank-perfect, and weakly rank-perfect graphs. For that we start with the description of the stable set polytope for perfect graphs and allow stepwise more general facets for the stable set polytopes of the graphs in each superclass. Membership in those three classes indicates how far a graph is away from being perfect. We investigate for webs and antiwebs to which of the three classes they belong. We provide a complete description of the facets of the stable set polytope for antiwebs (with help of a result due to Shepherd on near-bipartite graphs). The main result is that antiwebs are rankperfect

On rank-perfect subclasses of near-bipartite graphs

Shepherd (1995) proved that the stable set polytopes of near-bipartite graphs are given by constraints associated with the complete join of antiwebs only. For antiwebs, the facet set reduces to rank constraints associated with single antiwebs by Wagler (2004b). We extend this result to a larger graph class, the complements of fuzzy circular interval graphs, recently introduced in Chudnovsky and...

Characterizing and bounding the imperfection ratio for some classes of graphs

Perfect graphs constitute a well-studied graph class with a rich structure, reflected by many characterizations with respect to different concepts. Perfect graphs are, for instance, precisely those graphs G where the stable set polytope STAB(G) equals the fractional stable set polytope QSTAB(G). The dilation ratio min{t : QSTAB(G) ⊆ t STAB(G)} of the two polytopes yields the imperfection ratio ...

Generating Facets for the Independence System Polytope

In this paper, we present procedures to obtain facet-defining inequalities for the independence system polytope. These procedures are defined for inequalities which are not necessarily rank inequalities. We illustrate the use of these procedures by deriving strong valid inequalities for the acyclic induced subgraph, triangle free induced subgraph, bipartite induced subgraph, and knapsack polyto...

From imperfection to nonidealness

Beyond perfection, the field to be explored is too wide. In this context, several ways to classify imperfect graphs or, equivalently, 0, 1 (clique-node) imperfect matrices can be found in the literature. From the polyhedral point of view, ideal matrices are to set covering problems what perfect matrices are to set packing problems. In fact, if a matrix is ideal, its linear relaxation is an inte...

On the maximum feasible subsystem problem, IISs and IIS-hypergraphs

We consider the MAX FS problem: For a given infeasible linear system Ax ≤ b, determine a feasible subsystem containing as many inequalities as possible. This problem, which is NP-hard and also difficult to approximate, has a number of interesting applications in a wide range of fields. In this paper we examine structural and algorithmic properties of MAX FS and of Irreducible Infeasible Subsyst...
