On the Max-Flow Min-Cut Ratio for Directed Multicommodity Flows
We give a pure combinatorial problem whose solution determines max-flow min-cut ratio for directed multicommodity flows. In addition, this combinatorial problem has applications in improving the approximation factor of Greedy algorithm for maximum edge ...

Improved Bounds on the Max-Flow Min-Cut Ratio for Multicommodity Flows
In this paper we consider the worst case ratio between the capacity of min-cuts and the value of max-flow for multicommodity flow problems. We improve the best known bounds for the mincut max-flow ratio for multicommodity flows in undirected graphs, by ...

On fractional multicommodity flows and distance functions
The authors establish some results on fractional and integral solutions to multicommodity flow problems. The following is proven. Let \(G=(V,E)\) be a planar bipartite graph. There exist subsets \(W_ 1,W_ 2,...,W_ t\) of V so that for each pair \(v'\), \(v''\) of vertices on the boundary of G, the distance of \(v'\) and \(v''\) in G is equal to the ...

The Cut Cone, L¹ Embeddability, Complexity and Multicommodity Flows
A finite metric (or more properly semimetric) on n points is a non-negative vector d = (dij) 1 ≤ i < j ≤ n that satisfies the triangle inequality: dij ≤ dik + d jk. The L 1 (or Manhattan)distance |x | − y 1 | between two vectors x = (xi) and y = (yi)

Criticality for multicommodity flows [PDF]
For k ≥ 1, the k-commodity flow problem is, we are given k pairs of vertices in a graph G, and we ask whether there exist k flows in the graph, where • the ith flow is between the ith pair of vertices, and has total value one; and • for each edge e, the ...
