2 Flow Network A flow network is a directed graph G = (V, E) with a source s V and a sink t V, and a nonnegative integer capacity c(e) for each edge e E. no parallel edges, no edge enters s, no edge leaves t abstraction for material flowing through the edges a 9 d s 5 b 8 e 10 t c 16 f Nanyang Technological University MAS 714 September 18, / 26
3 Flow in Flow Networks A s-t flow (flow) f : E R is a function that satisfies: e E : 0 f(e) c(e) [capacity] v V {s, t} : e into v f(e) = e out of v f(e) [flow conservation] The value of a flow f is: val(f) = e out of s f(e).

4 Cut in flow networks A s-t cut (cut) is a partition (A, B) of the vertices with s A and t B. The capacity of a cut is the sum of the capacities of edges from A to B. Min-Cut Problem Find a cut of minimum capacity. a 9 d s 5 b 8 e 10 t c 16 f Nanyang Technological University MAS 714 September 18, / 26
5 Application The Max Flow problem models the situation where commodities need to be transported through a network with limited capacities bipartite matching disjoint paths airline scheduling image segmentation project selection baseball elimination etc. Nanyang Technological University MAS 714 September 18, / 26
6 Application: Matching Given an undirect graph G = (V, E), a subset of edges M E is a matching if each vertex appears in at most one edge in M. Bipartite Matching Given a bipartite graph G = (L R, E), find a max cardinality matching Nanyang Technological University MAS 714 September 18, / 26
7 Bipartite Matching: Max-Flow Formulation Create a directed graph G = {L R {s, t}, E }. Direct all edges from L to R, and assign infinite capacity. Add sources s, and unit capacity edges from s to each vertex in L. Add sink t, and unit capacity edges from each vertex in R to t. Theorem The max cardinality of a matching in G = the value of max flow in G. 1 5 s Nanyang Technological University MAS 714 September 18, / t
8 Towards a max-flow algorithm First try: greedy algorithm start with f(e) = 0 for all edges e E find an s t path P where each edge has f(e) < c(e) augment flow along path P repeat until stuck a 0/4 3/4 c 10/10 8/10 2/2 0/2 0/8 8/8 7/8 0/6 6/6 0/10 6/10 9/10 s b 0/10 6/10 9/10 0/9 2/9 8/9 9/9 10/10 8/10 val(f) = 0 val(f) = = 8 val(f) = = 10 val(f) = = 16 val(f) = 16 optimal val(f) = 19 d t Nanyang Technological University MAS 714 September 18, / 26
9 Residual Graph Residual edge undo flow sent Original edge: e = (u, v) E flow f(e) e = (u, v) and e R = (v, u) residual capacity: capacity c(e) { c(e) f(e) if e E c f (e) = f(e) if e R E u 6/17 v 6 u 11 v Residual Graph: G f = (V, E f ) residual edges with positive residual capacity E f = {e : f(e) < c(e)} {e R : f(e) > 0} key property: f + f is a flow in G iff f is a flow in G f Nanyang Technological University MAS 714 September 18, / 26
10 Augmenting Path An augmenting path is a simple s t path P in the residual graph G f. The bottleneck capacity of an augmenting P is the minimum residual capacity of any edge in P. Key Property Let f be a flow and let P be an augmenting path in G f. Then f is a flow and val(f ) = val(f) + bottleneck(g f, P) Algorithm: Augment(f, c, P): b = bottleneck capacity of path P; foreach edge e P do if e E then f(e) = f(e) + b; else f(e R ) = f(e R ) b; return f Nanyang Technological University MAS 714 September 18, / 26
11 Ford-Fulkerson Algorithm Ford-Fulkerson augmenting path algorithm start with f(e) = 0 for all edges e E find an augmenting path P in the residual graph G f augment flow along path P repeat until stuck Algorithm: Ford-Fulkerson(G, s, t, c): foreach edge e E do f(e) = 0; G f = residual graph; while there exists an augmenting path P in G f do f = Augment(f, c, P); Update G f ; return f Nanyang Technological University MAS 714 September 18, / 26

13 net flow across cut = = 25 net flow across cut = = 25 net flow across cut Nanyang Technological University MAS 714 September 18, / 26 Relationship between Flows and Cuts Flow Value Lemma Let f be any flow and let (A, B) be any cut. Then the net flow across (A, B) equals the value of f, that is, f(e) f(e) = val(f). e out of A e into A a 5/9 d 10/10 0/4 5/15 0/15 5/10 s 5/5 b 5/8 e 10/10 t 10/15 0/4 0/6 0/15 10/10 c 10/16 f
14 Relationship between Flows and Cuts Flow Value Lemma Let f be any flow and let (A, B) be any cut. Then the net flow across (A, B) equals the value of f, that is, f(e) f(e) = val(f). e out of A e into A Proof. val(f) = f(e) e out of s = v A = ( e out of v f(e) e out of A e into A f(e) ) f(e) e into v f(e) by flow conservation Nanyang Technological University MAS 714 September 18, / 26
15 Weak Duality Weak Duality Let f be any flow and (A, B) be any cut. Then val(f) cap(a, B). Proof. val(f) = f(e) f(e) e out of A e out of A e out of A = cap(a, B) f(e) c(e) e into A Nanyang Technological University MAS 714 September 18, / 26
16 Max-Flow Min-Cut Theorem Augmenting Path Theorem A flow f is a max-flow iff there are no augmenting paths. Max-Flow Min-Cut Theorem Value of max-flow = capacity of min-cut. Proof: show the following three conditions are equivalent for any flow f 1 There exists a cut (A, B) such that cap(a, B) = val(f). 2 f is a max-flow. 3 There is no augmenting path with respect to f. Nanyang Technological University MAS 714 September 18, / 26
17 Max-Flow Min-Cut Theorem Proof. [(1) = (2)] : Trivial by weak duality. [(2) = (3)] : Assume by contradiction that there is an augmenting path with respect to f. Can improve flow f by sending flow along this path. Thus f is not a max-flow. Nanyang Technological University MAS 714 September 18, / 26
18 Max-Flow Min-Cut Theorem Proof. [(3) = (1)] : Let f be a flow with no augmenting paths. Let A be the set of vertices reachable from s in the residual graph G f. By the definition of cut A, s A. By the definition of flow f, t / A. val(f) = f(e) f(e) = e out of A e out of A = cap(a, B) c(e) e into A Nanyang Technological University MAS 714 September 18, / 26
19 Back to Ford-Fulkerson Algorithm: Ford-Fulkerson(G, s, t, c): foreach edge e E do f(e) = 0; G f = residual graph; while there exists an augmenting path P in G f do f = Augment(f, c, P); Update G f ; return f Theorem The Ford-Fulkerson algorithm computes a maximum flow of the network. Directly from the augmenting path theorem. Nanyang Technological University MAS 714 September 18, / 26
20 Running Time Analysis Assumption. Capacities are integers between 1 and C. Integrality invariant. Throughout the algorithm, the flow values f(e) and the residual capacities c f (e) are integers. Theorem The algorithm terminates in at most val(f ) nc iterations. Proof. Each augmentation increases the value by at least 1. Corollary The running time of Ford-Fulkerson is O(mnC). Nanyang Technological University MAS 714 September 18, / 26
21 Bad Case for Ford-Fulkerson Is generic Ford-Fulkerson algorithm polynomial time in input size? No. Input size is polynomial in m, n, log C. s C a 1 C t Augmenting Path: s a b t s b a t s a b t C b C s b a t... Requires 2C iterations. Nanyang Technological University MAS 714 September 18, / 26
22 Choosing Good Augmenting Paths Goal. Choose augmenting paths so that: Can find augmenting paths efficiently. Algorithm takes few iterations. Choosing augmenting paths with max bottleneck capacity sufficiently large bottleneck capacity fewest number of edges Nanyang Technological University MAS 714 September 18, / 26
23 Capacity-scaling algorithm Intuition. Choose augmenting path with (almost) highest bottleneck capacity: it increases flow by max possible amount in given iteration. Detail of the algorithm is omitted. Theorem The scaling algorithm finds a max flow in O(m log C) augmentations. It can be implemented to run in O(m 2 log C) time. Nanyang Technological University MAS 714 September 18, / 26
24 Shortest Augmenting Paths Lemma 1. Throughout the algorithm, length of the shortest path never decreases. Lemma 2. After at most m shortest path augmentations, the length of the shortest augmenting path strictly increases. O(m + n) time to find shortest augmenting path via BFS. O(m) augmentations for paths of exactly k edges. O(mn) augmentations. Theorem The shortest augmenting path algorithm runs in O(m 2 n) time. Nanyang Technological University MAS 714 September 18, / 26
