Optimizing the investments in mobile networks and subscriber migrations for a telecommunication operator

Adrien Cambier et al.

Summary: In the context of a telecommunication company that serves as both an infrastructure operator and a service provider, network expansion planning is optimized based on knowledge of subscriber dynamics to prevent unnecessary costs. Subsidies can be used to influence subscriber behavior, and planning must meet strategic guideline requirements. The research proposes a mixed-integer linear programming model with valid inequalities and a heuristic algorithm for numerical evaluation on real instances.

On undirected two-commodity integral flow, disjoint paths and strict terminal connection problems

Alexsander A. de Melo et al.

Summary: The text discusses the NP-completeness of the simple two-commodity integral flow problem in directed and undirected cases. Various proofs and investigations have been conducted to explore the complexity of the problem under different demand scenarios, ultimately providing insights into the problem's complexity.

Minimumcolor-degreeperfectb-matchings

Mariia Anapolska et al.

Summary: The minimum color-degree perfect matching problem is proven to be NP-hard on bipartite graphs, but can be solved in polynomial time on specific two-colored complete bipartite graphs. Additionally, polynomial-time algorithms are developed for solving the problem with a fixed number of colors on series-parallel graphs and simple graphs with bounded treewidth.

Weighted target set selection on trees and cycles

S. Raghavan et al.

Summary: This paper investigates the weighted target set selection problem on social networks, proposing algorithms for trees and cycles and deriving corresponding polytope descriptions and sets of valid inequalities. The formulations presented can be applied to arbitrary graphs for solving the WTSS problem.

Optimizing concurrency under Scheduling by Edge Reversal

Carlos E. Marciano et al.

Summary: This paper discusses the applications of edge reversal scheduling technique in real-world scenarios and proposes algorithms for solving both maximum and minimum concurrency problems. The study shows the general inapproximability of maximum concurrency and introduces approximation algorithms for certain graph classes, while also establishing the relation of minimum concurrency to longest cycles using hardness and inapproximability results, and introducing a new application in assembling musical phrases.

In search of dense subgraphs: How good is greedy peeling?

Naga V. C. Gudapati et al.

Summary: Finding the densest subgraph in a given graph has real-world applications such as determining important regions, similar characteristics, or enhanced interaction. The densest subgraph extraction problem is a non-linear optimization problem, but can be solved in polynomial time by an exact algorithm based on solving max-flow subproblems iteratively. To handle large graphs, heuristic algorithms are needed.

An efficient approach to optimization of semi-stable routing in multicommodity flow networks

Artur Tomaszewski et al.

Summary: In this paper, the focus is on optimizing routing in the network while considering limitations on the number of routing configurations that can be used. The proposed solution approach is based on routing cluster generation and provides a tight lower bound on the minimum of a selected objective function.
