1 - 1, ,., -., On Totally Unimodularity in Edge-Edge Adjacency Relationships Yusuke Matsumoto, 1, 3 Naoyuki Kamiyama 2 and Keiko Imai 2 We consider totally unimodularity for edge-edge adjacency matrices which represent a relationship between two edges in a graph. The matrices appear in an integer programming formulation for the edge dominating set problem. We consider a problem of characterizing graphs having totally unimodular matrices as their edge-edge adjacency matrices, and give a necessary and sufficient condition for the characterization. The condition is the first characterization for edge-edge adjacency matrices. Moreover, we introduce graph classes obtained an optimal integer solution using the linear programming relaxation for the above problem. 1 IBM, Japan 2 Department of Information and System Engineering, Chuo University 3 Graduate School of Science and Engineering, Chuo University 1.,,.,,.,.,. 1,.,, 1, 0, 1. 1, 0, 1., 5).,.,,,., 2 5)., -.
