Circuit and bond polytopes on series-parallel graphs

In this paper, we describe the circuit polytope on series-parallel graphs. We first show the existence of a compact extended formulation. Though not being explicit, its construction process helps us to inductively provide the description in the original space. As a consequence, using the link between bonds and circuits in planar graphs, we also describe … Read more

Which Nonnegative Matrices Are Slack Matrices?

In this paper we characterize the slack matrices of cones and polytopes among all nonnegative matrices. This leads to an algorithm for deciding whether a given matrix is a slack matrix. The underlying decision problem is equivalent to the polyhedral verifi cation problem whose complexity is unknown. Citation April 2013 Article Download View Which Nonnegative Matrices … Read more
