چکیده

A class W* of graphs for which the vertex packing problem can be solved in polynomial time is described. Graphs in V* can be obtained from bipartite graphs and claw-free graphs by repeated substitutions. A forbidden subgraphs characterization of the class V‘ is given.

A TDI System and its Application to Approximation Algorithms

We obtain a necessary and su cient condition for tournaments to possess a min-max relation on packing and covering directed cycles, together with strongly polynomial time algorithms for the feedback vertex set problem and the cycle packing problem in this class of tournaments; the condition and the algorithms are all based on a totally dual integral system, a theoretical framework introduced by...

Extending Two-Dimensional Bin Packing Problem: Consideration of Priority for Items

In this paper a two-dimensional non-oriented guillotine bin packing problem is studied when items have different priorities. Our objective is to maximize the total profit which is total revenues minus costs of used bins and wasted area. A genetic algorithm is developed to solve this problem where a new coding scheme is introduced. To evaluate the performance of the proposed GA, first an upper b...

On the feedback vertex set polytope of a series-parallel graph

The minimum weight feedback vertex set problem (FVS) on series-parallel graphs can be solved in O(n) time by dynamic programming. This solution, however, does not provide a “nice” certificate of optimality. We prove a min-max relation for FVS on series-parallel graphs with no induced subdivision of K2,3 (a class of graphs containing the outerplanar graphs), thereby establishing the existence of...

The mixed vertex packing problem

We study a generalization of the vertex packing problem having both binary and bounded continuous variables, called the mixed vertex packing problem (MVPP). The well-known vertex packing model arises as a subproblem or relaxation of many 0-1 integer problems, whereas the mixed vertex packing model arises as a natural counterpart of vertex packing in the context of mixed 0-1 integer programming....
