Given an undirected connected network and a weight function finding a basis of the cut space with minimum sum of the cut weights is termed Minimum Cut Basis Problem. This problem can be solved, e.g., by the algorithm of Gomory and Hu [GH61]. If, however, fundamentality is required, i.e., the basis is induced by a spanning tree T in G, the problem becomes NP-hard. Theoretical and numerical results on that topic can be found in Bunke et al. [BHMM07] and in Bunke [Bun06]. In the following we present heuristics with complexity O(m log n) and O(mn), where n and m are the numbers of vertices and edges respectively, which obtain upper bounds on the aforementioned problem and in several cases outperform the heuristics of Schwahn [Sch05].
Minimum Cut Tree Games
(2008)
In this paper we introduce a cooperative game based on the minimum cut tree problem which is also known as multi-terminal maximum flow problem. Minimum cut tree games are shown to be totally balanced and a solution in their core can be obtained in polynomial time. This special core allocation is closely related to the solution of the original graph theoretical problem. We give an example showing that the game is not supermodular in general, however, it is for special cases and for some of those we give an explicit formula for the calculation of the Shapley value.
Given an undirected, connected network G = (V,E) with weights on the edges, the cut basis problem is asking for a maximal number of linear independent cuts such that the sum of the cut weights is minimized. Surprisingly, this problem has not attained as much attention as its graph theoretic counterpart, the cycle basis problem. We consider two versions of the problem, the unconstrained and the fundamental cut basis problem. For the unconstrained case, where the cuts in the basis can be of an arbitrary kind, the problem can be written as a multiterminal network flow problem and is thus solvable in strongly polynomial time. The complexity of this algorithm improves the complexity of the best algorithms for the cycle basis problem, such that it is preferable for cycle basis problems in planar graphs. In contrast, the fundamental cut basis problem, where all cuts in the basis are obtained by deleting an edge, each, from a spanning tree T is shown to be NP-hard. We present heuristics, integer programming formulations and summarize first experiences with numerical tests.
Im Sommersemester 2008 führte die AG Optimierung, FB Mathematik zusammen mit dem FB Chemie und dem FB Pädagogik ein interdisziplinäres Seminar zur „Fachdidaktik Chemie und Mathematik“ durch. Durch dieses integrative Lehrveranstaltungskonzept sollte die Nachhaltigkeit der Ausbildung gestärkt und die Verknüpfung von Allgemeiner Didaktik mit der Fachdidaktik sowie zwischen verschiedenen Fachbereichen gefördert werden. In dieser speziellen Veranstaltung erarbeiteten sich die Teilnehmer Inhalte in der Schnittmenge von Chemie und Mathematik, nämlich Kristallgeometrie, Analysis und Titration sowie Graphentheorie und Trennverfahren. Ihre Erkenntnisse wurden im Rahmen von Seminarvorträgen präsentiert und ausgearbeitet. Im folgenden Report befinden sich die Ausarbeitungen, welche Lernziele und Kompetenzen, Sach-, Methodische und Didaktische Analysen sowie Unterrichtsentwürfe umfassen.
