On the linear relaxation of the p-median problem
We study a well-known linear programming relaxation of the p-median problem. We give a characterization of the directed graphs for which this system of inequalities defines an integral polytope. As a consequence, we obtain that the p-median problem is polynomial in that class of graphs. We also give an algorithm to recognize these graphs. © 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
متن کاملON THE p-MEDIAN POLYTOPE OF A SPECIAL CLASS OF GRAPHS
In this paper we consider a well known class of valid inequalities for the p-median and the uncapacitated facility location polytopes, the odd cycle inequalities. It is known that their separation problem is polynomially solvable. We give a new polynomial separation algorithm based on a reduction from the original graph. Then, we define a nontrivial class of graphs, where the odd cycle inequali...
متن کاملOn the p-median polytope of Y-free graphs
In this paper we consider a well-known class of valid inequalities for the p-median and the uncapacitated facility location polytopes, the odd cycle inequalities. It is known that their separation problem is polynomially solvable. We give a new polynomial separation algorithm based on a reduction from the original graph. Then, we define a non-trivial class of graphs, where the odd cycle inequal...
متن کاملThe p-median and p-center Problems on Bipartite Graphs
Let $G$ be a bipartite graph. In this paper we consider the two kind of location problems namely $p$-center and $p$-median problems on bipartite graphs. The $p$-center and $p$-median problems asks to find a subset of vertices of cardinality $p$, so that respectively the maximum and sum of the distances from this set to all other vertices in $G$ is minimized. For each case we present some proper...
متن کاملمساله پوشش هاب تک تخصیصی بر روی شبکه ستاره‌ای؛ مدل‌بندی، خطی‌سازی و یافتن کران مناسب برای آن
The present study evaluates two problems of single allocation hub-covering problem with star structure including two problems of maximal p-hub covering and hub covering by considering the flow transfer costs. The star structure is as there is a central hub with definite location and other hubs are connected directly to the central hub. In the first problem, the goal is selection of p-hub locati...
