Higher Bruhat orders of types B and C
We propose versions of higher Bruhat orders for types B and C. This is based on a theory of higher Bruhat orders of type A and their geometric interpretations (due to Manin–Shekhtman, Voevodskii–Kapranov, and Zie...

On interrelations between strongly, weakly and chord separated set-systems (a geometric approach)
We consider three types of set-systems that have interesting applications in algebraic combinatorics and representation theory: maximal collections of the so-called strongly, weakly, and chord separated subsets o...

A Combinatorial Algorithm for the Planar Multiflow Problem with Demands Located on Three Holes
We consider an undirected multi(commodity)flow demand problem in which a supply graph is planar, each source-sink pair is located on one of three specified faces of the graph, and the capacities and demands ar...

Planar flows and quadratic relations over semirings
Adapting Lindström’s well-known construction, we consider a wide class of functions which are generated by flows in a planar acyclic directed graph whose vertices (or edges) take weights in an arbitrary commut...

Min-cost multiflows in node-capacitated undirected networks
We consider an undirected graph G=(VG,EG) with a set T⊆VG of terminals, and with nonnegative integer capacities c(v) and costs a(v) of nodes v∈VG. A path in G is a T-path if its ends are distinct terminals. By a

On maximal weakly separated set-systems
For a permutation ω∈S n , Leclerc and Zelevinsky in Am. Math. Soc. Transl., Ser. 2 181, 85–108 (1998) introduced the concept of an ω-chamber weakly separ...

A Scaling Algorithm for the Maximum Node-Capacitated Multiflow Problem
We study the problem of finding a fractional node-capacitated multiflow of maximum value in an undirected network. Previously known methods for this problem are based on linear programming and the ellipsoid me...

Maximum skew-symmetric flows and matchings
The maximum integer skew-symmetric flow problem (MSFP) generalizes both the maximum flow and maximum matching problems. It was introduced by Tutte [28] in terms of self-conjugate flows in antisymmetrical digra...

Integer Concave Cocirculations and Honeycombs
A convex triangular grid is a planar digraph G embedded in the plane so that each bounded face is an equilateral triangle with three edges and their union

Metrics with finite sets of primitive extensions
In this paper, we give a complete characterization for the class of rational finite metrics μ with the property that the set Π(μ) of primitive extensions of μ is finite. Here, for a metric μ on a setT, a positive...

Multiflows and disjoint paths of minimum total cost
In this paper we discuss a number of recent and earlier results in the field of combinatorial optimization that concerns problems on minimum cost multiflows (multicommodity flows) and edge-disjoint paths. More...

Path problems in skew-symmetric graphs
We study path problems in skew-symmetric graphs. These problems generalize the standard graph reachability and shortest path problems. We establish combinatorial solvability criteria and duality relations for ...

Maximum skew-symmetric flows
We introduce the maximum skew-symmetric flow problem which generalizes flow and matching problems. We develop a theory of skew-symmetric flows that is parallel to the classical flow theory. We use the newly de...

Cyclical games with prohibitions
We consider a certain combinatorial game on a digraph for two cases of the price function. For one case the game in question extends the cyclical game studied in Ehrenfeucht and Mycielski (1979) and Gurvitch, ...
