Abstract

The present paper is devoted to studying of minimal parametric fillings of finite metric spaces (a version of optimal connection problem) by methods of Linear Programming. The estimate on the multiplicity of multi-tours appearing in the formula of weight of minimal fillings is improved, an alternative proof of this formula is obtained, and also explicit formulas for finite spaces consisting of 55 and 66 points are derived.
