This paper presents a faster algorithm for the M-convex submodular flow problem, which is a generalization of the minimum-cost flow problem with an M-convex cost function for the flow-boundary, where an M-convex function is a nonlinear nonseparable discrete convex function on integer points. The algorithm extends the capacity scaling approach for the submodular flow problem by Fleischer, Iwata ...

Wilson's disease (WD) is a rare autosomal recessive inborn error of copper metabolism caused by a mutation to the copper-transporting gene ATP7B. The presentation is usually neurologic or hepatic, seen in 40% of patients. Diagnosis depends primarily on clinical features, biochemical parameters and the presence of the Kayser-Fleischer ring. Here a case of Wilson disease with various neurological...

Multi-commodity flows over time exhibit the non-intuitive property that letting flow wait can allow us to send flow faster overall. Fleischer and Skutella (IPCO 2002) show that the speed-up through storage is at most a factor of 2, and that there are instances where the speed-up is as large as a factor of 4/3. We close this gap by presenting a family of instances for which the speed-up factor t...
