Lifting facets of the cut polytope
The cut polytope P"c(G) of a graph G is the convex hull of the incidence vectors of the edge sets of all cuts of G. We give a sufficient condition for an inequality defining a facet of P"c(G) to define a facet of the cut polytope of a graph containing G ...
Facets of the Asymmetric Traveling Salesman Polytope
In this paper we consider the Asymmetric Traveling Salesman polytope, Pn, defined as the convex hull of the incidence vectors of tours in a complete digraph with n vertices, and its monotonization, P̃n. Several classes of valid inequalities for both ...
Clique-Web Facets for Multicut Polytopes
Let G = V , E be a graph. An edge set { uv ∈ E | u ∈ S i , v ∈ S j , i â j }, where S 1, ', S k is a partition of V , is called a multicut with k shores. We investigate the polytopes MC k â n and MC k â n that are defined ...
