On the extremal solutions for capacitated network problems. (English) Zbl 0589.05042
The paper gives a unifying approach to the problem of characterizing the extreme points of those convex matrix sets which correspond to the domains of various types of capacitated network problems. It is shown that one can ascertain whether a matrix is an extreme point of the sets by examining the pattern of a certain graph associated with it.
