Minimal multicut and maximal integer multiflow: A survey

We present a survey about the maximum integral multiflow and minimum multicut problems and their subproblems, such as the multiterminal cut and the unsplittable flow problems. We consider neither continuous multiflow nor minimum cost multiflow. Most of the results are very recent and some are new. W...

Zusammenfassung:We present a survey about the maximum integral multiflow and minimum multicut problems and their subproblems, such as the multiterminal cut and the unsplittable flow problems. We consider neither continuous multiflow nor minimum cost multiflow. Most of the results are very recent and some are new. We recall the dual relationship between both problems, give complexity results and algorithms, firstly in unrestricted graphs and secondly in several special graphs: trees, bipartite or planar graphs. A table summarizes the most important results.
