The Polymatroid Steiner Problems
The Steiner tree problem asks for a minimum cost tree spanning a given set of terminals S ⊆ V in a weighted graph G = (V, E, c), c : E → R+ . In this paper we consider a genera...

Parity Systems and the Delta-Matroid Intersection Problem
We consider the problem of determining when two delta-matroids on the same ground-set have a common base. Our approach is to adapt the theory of matchings in 2-polymatroids develo...

Reduction tests for the prize-collecting Steiner problem
This article introduces a proper redefinition of the concept of bottleneck Steiner distance for the Prize-Collecting Steiner Problem. This allows the application of reduction test...

Matching Problems in Polymatroids Without Double Circuits
According to the present state of the theory of the matroid matching problem, the existence of a good characterization to the size of a maximum matching depends on the behavior of ...

Polymatroids and mean-risk minimization in discrete optimization
We study discrete optimization problems with a submodular mean-risk minimization objective. For 0-1 problems a linear characterization of the convex lower envelope is given. For mi...
