A Branch-and-Cut-and-Price Algorithm for Vertex-Biconnectivity Augmentation
In this paper, the first approach for solving the vertex-biconnectivity augmentation problem (V2AUG) to optimality is proposed. Given a spanning subgraph of an edge-weighted graph, we search for the cheapest subset of edges to augment this subgraph in order to make it vertex-biconnected. The problem is reduced to the augmentation of the corresponding block-cut tree, … Read more
