Network flow interdiction analysis studies by how much the value of a maximum flow in a network can be diminished by removing components of the network constrained to some budget. Although this problem is strongly NP-complete on general…
This paper introduces a graph-based algorithm for solving single-item, single-location inventory lot-sizing problems under non-stationary stochastic demand using the $(R_t, S_t)$ policy and a penalty cost scheme. The proposed method relaxes…
We study minimum entropy submodular optimization, a common generalization of the minimum entropy set cover problem, studied earlier by Cardinal et al., and the submodular set cover problem. We give a general bound of the approximation…
In this research, we examine the minsum flow problem in dynamic path networks where flows are represented as discrete and weighted sets. The minsum flow problem has been widely studied for its relevance in finding evacuation routes during…
The price of anarchy has become a standard measure of the efficiency of equilibria in games. Most of the literature in this area has focused on establishing worst-case bounds for specific classes of games, such as routing games or more…
We study multi-robot persistent monitoring on weighted graphs, where node weights encode monitoring priorities and edge weights encode travel distances. The goal is to design joint robot trajectories that minimize the worst-case weighted…
We extend the well known bottleneck paths problem in two directions for directed unweighted (unit edge cost) graphs with positive real edge capacities. Firstly we narrow the problem domain and compute the bottleneck of the entire network in…
In this paper we deal with the Bin Packing Problem with Conflicts on interval graphs: given an interval graph, a nonnegative integer weight for each vertex, and a nonnegative integer B, find a partition of the vertex set of the graph into k…
In the Survivable Network Design Problem (SNDP), the input is an edge-weighted (di)graph $G$ and an integer $r_{uv}$ for every pair of vertices $u,v\in V(G)$. The objective is to construct a subgraph $H$ of minimum weight which contains…
We consider the Minimum Multi-Commodity Flow Subgraph (MMCFS) problem: given a directed graph $G$ with edge capacities $\mathit{cap}$ and a retention ratio $\alpha\in(0,1)$, find an edge-wise minimum subgraph $G' \subseteq G$ such that for…
Entropic optimal transport problems play an increasingly important role in machine learning and generative modelling. In contrast with optimal transport maps which often have limited applicability in high dimensions, Schrodinger bridges can…
Traditional non-atomic selfish routing games present some limitations in properly modeling road traffic. This paper introduces a novel type of non-atomic selfish routing game leveraging concepts from Daganzo's cell transmission model (CTM).…
In network congestion games, system operators often utilize latency models, estimated from real-world traffic flow and travel time data, to design monetary incentives which steer equilibrium user behaviors towards lowering system-wide…
An effective way to reduce clutter in a graph drawing that has (many) crossings is to group edges that travel in parallel into \emph{bundles}. Each edge can participate in many such bundles. Any crossing in this bundled graph occurs between…
Interdiction problems ask about the worst-case impact of a limited change to an underlying optimization problem. They are a natural way to measure the robustness of a system, or to identify its weakest spots. Interdiction problems have been…
We consider node-weighted survivable network design (SNDP) in planar graphs and minor-closed families of graphs. The input consists of a node-weighted undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ and integer connectivity requirements $r(uv)$ for each…
Markovian network equilibrium generalizes the classical Wardrop equilibrium in network games. At a Markovian network equilibrium, each player of the game solves a Markov decision process instead of a shortest path problem. We propose two…
We present a first step towards a multigrid method for solving the min-cost flow problem. Specifically, we present a strategy that takes advantage of existing black-box fast iterative linear solvers, i.e. algebraic multigrid methods. We…
The dynamic response of power grids to small disturbances influences their overall stability. This paper examines the effect of network topology on the linearized time-invariant dynamics of electric power systems. The proposed framework…
Shortest paths in complex networks play key roles in many applications. Examples include routing packets in a computer network, routing traffic on a transportation network, and inferring semantic distances between concepts on the World Wide…
