Rotations in the stable b-matching problem
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper deals with the stable b-matching problem on general multigraphs. We generalize the notion of singular and dual rotation and establish a one-one correspondence between stable b-matchings and certain sets of rotations. This correspondence is used to find all stable edges and a minimum regret stable b-matching in polynomial time. We also recall the NP-completeness of the egalitarian stable b-matching problem.

A Natural Generalization of Stable Matching Solved via New Insights into Ideal Cuts
We study a natural generalization of stable matching to the maximumweight stable matching problem and we obtain a combinatorial polynomial time algorithm for it by reducing it to the problem of finding a maximum weight ideal cut in a DAG. We give the first polynomial time algorithm for the latter problem; this algorithm is also combinatorial. The combinatorial nature of our algorithms not only ...
متن کاملA unified approach to finding good stable matchings in the hospitals/residents setting
The hospitals/residents (HR) problem is a many-to-one generalization of the stable marriage (SM) problem. Researchers have been interested in variants of stable matchings that either satisfy a set of additional contraints or are optimal with respect to some cost function. In this paper, we show that broad classes of feasibility and optimization stable matching problems in the HR setting can be ...
متن کاملOn the inverse maximum perfect matching problem under the bottleneck-type Hamming distance
Given an undirected network G(V,A,c) and a perfect matching M of G, the inverse maximum perfect matching problem consists of modifying minimally the elements of c so that M becomes a maximum perfect matching with respect to the modified vector. In this article, we consider the inverse problem when the modifications are measured by the weighted bottleneck-type Hamming distance. We propose an alg...
متن کاملThe matching interdiction problem in dendrimers
The purpose of the matching interdiction problem in a weighted graph is to find two vertices such that the weight of the maximum matching in the graph without these vertices is minimized. An approximate solution for this problem has been presented. In this paper, we consider dendrimers as graphs such that the weights of edges are the bond lengths. We obtain the maximum matching in some types of...
متن کاملOn the stable b-matching polytope
We characterize the bipartite stable b-matching polytope in terms of linear constraints. The stable b-matching polytope is the convex hull of the characteristic vectors of stable b-matchings, that is, of stable assignments of a two-sided multiple partner matching model. Our proof uses the comparability theorem of Roth and Sotomayor [13] and follows a similar line as Rothblum did in [14] for the...
