Abstract :In the paper, we consider a linear programming problem with con-straint matrices whose rows are 0, 1 characteristics vectors of fundamental cuts in a given undirected graph G = insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(V, E);. We prove that the simplex algorithm finds an optimal solution in at most m-n+1 insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(m = |E|, n = |V|); iterations. We also consider the question whether a given binary matrix is a 0, 1 characteristic vector of fundamental cuts in the graph G.Keywords : Network design, submodular function, fundamental cut sets, linear programming
