The support of a flow $x$ in a network is the subdigraph induced by the arcs $uv$ for which $x(uv)>0$. We discuss a number of results on flows in networks where we put certain restrictions on structure of the support of the flow. Many of…
Routing and scheduling problems are fundamental problems in combinatorial optimization, and also have many applications. Most variations of these problems are NP-Hard, so we need to use heuristics to solve these problems on large instances,…
Network flows over time are a fascinating generalization of classical (static) network flows, introducing an element of time. They naturally model problems where travel and transmission are not instantaneous and flow may vary over time. Not…
We study the well-established problem of finding an optimal routing of unsplittable flows in a graph. While by now there is an extensive body of work targeting the problem on graph classes such as paths and trees, we aim at using the…
Stable flows generalize the well-known concept of stable matchings to markets in which transactions may involve several agents, forwarding flow from one to another. An instance of the problem consists of a capacitated directed network, in…

We consider the robust version of a multi-commodity network flow problem. The robustness is defined with respect to the deletion, or failure, of edges. While the flow problem itself is a polynomially-sized linear program, its robust version…

We present a new strongly polynomial algorithm for generalized flow maximization that is significantly simpler and faster than the previous strongly polynomial algorithm [V\'egh16]. For the uncapacitated problem formulation, the complexity…
We study the time-averaged flow in a model of particles that randomly hop on a finite directed graph. In the limit as the number of particles and the time window go to infinity but the graph remains finite, the large-deviation rate…
