True/False Problems
1. For every graph G and every maximum flow on G, there always exists an edge such that increasing the
capacity on that edge will increase the maximum flow that’s possible in the graph.
2. The problem of deciding whether a given flow f of a given flow network G is maximum flow can be
solved in linear time.
3. In any maximum flow there are no cycles that carry positive flow.(A cycle < e1, . . . , ek > carries
positive flow i↵ f(e1) > 0, . . . , f(ek) > 0.)
4. If X is any search problem, then X can be reduced to INDEPENDENT SET.
5. An linear program cannot have an unbounded objective function value.
6. The problem of finding the length of the shortest path between two nodes in a directed graph (which we
would normally solve using Dijkstra’s algorithm) can be expressed as a linear program. (An ordinary,
continuous linear program; we’re not talking about integer linear programs.) Assume that there is only
one shortest path
7. Given a flow network where all the edge capacities are even integers, the Ford-Fulkerson algorithm will
require at most C/2 iterations, where C is the total capacity leaving the source s.
8. Suppose f is a flow of some value X from s to t in a flow network G and there is an s-t cut of capacity
X. Then there are no s to t paths in the residual graph Gf.
9. A graph flow is a max flow if and only if there exists no cut with the same capacity as the flow’s value.
10. Adding a constraint to a linear programming problem increases the size of the feasible region.

Answer the following questions based on:
A company manufactures two products X and Y. Each product has to be processed in three depart-
ments: welding, assembly and painting. Each unit of X spends 2 hours in the welding department,
3 hours in assembly and 1 hour in painting. The corresponding times for a unit of Y are 3, 2 and 1
hours respectively. The employee hours available in a month are 1,500 for the welding department,
1,500 in assembly and 550 in painting. The contribution to profits are £100 for product X and £120
for product Y.

5. Total profits are maximised when the objective function (as a straight line on a graph) is:

(B)Nearest to the origin and tangent to the ‘feasible region’
(C)Furthest from the origin and tangent to the ‘feasible region’

Problem NPC
Suppose that after your graduation, you move to a new city. The city is defined by a directed graph
G = (V,E) and for each edge e 2 E, there is a non-negative cost ce associated to it. Your living place is
represented as a node s 2 V . In addition, there are a set of landmarks X ✓ V , which you want to visit.
Therefore, you want to choose a subgraph that spans all vertices in X (and possibly some other in V ) and
contains a path from s to each x 2 X with the minimum total edge cost.
1. Phrase the above optimization problem as a decision problem and show that it belongs to NP.
2. Show a polynomial time construction using a reduction from 3-SAT.
3. Write down the claim that the 3-SAT problem is polynomially reducible to the original problem.
4. Prove the claim in the direction from 3-SAT to the reduced problem.
5. Prove the claim in the direction from the reduced problem to 3-SAT.

Problem DP
Given a sequence of n coins of values v1, . . . , vn, where n is even. We play a game against an opponent by
alternating turns. In each turn, a player selects either the first or last coin from the sequence, removes it,
and receives the value of that coin. Use dynamic programming to determine the maximum possible amount
of money we can win if we move first.
1. Define (in plain English) subproblems to be solved.
2. Write the recurrence relation for subproblems. Also write the base cases.
3. Use plain English explain how you use that recursive relation to obtain a solution. You don’t need to
prove the correctness.
4. State the runtime of the algorithm. Explain your answer.
