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…
We consider a two-unicast-$Z$ network over a directed acyclic graph of unit capacitated edges; the two-unicast-$Z$ network is a special case of two-unicast networks where one of the destinations has apriori side information of the unwanted…
