In 2013, Orlin proved that the max flow problem could be solved in $O(nm)$ time. His algorithm ran in $O(nm + m^{1.94})$ time, which was the fastest for graphs with fewer than $n^{1.06}$ arcs. If the graph was not sufficiently sparse, the…
We consider the problem of finding maximum flows in planar graphs with capacities on both vertices and edges and with multiple sources and sinks. We present three algorithms when the capacities are integers. The first algorithm runs in $O(n…
In this paper we provide an algorithm which given any $m$-edge $n$-vertex directed graph with integer capacities at most $U$ computes a maximum $s$-$t$ flow for any vertices $s$ and $t$ in $m^{11/8+o(1)}U^{1/4}$ time with high probability.…
