Minimum cost flow problems
Published in V. K. Balakrishnan, Network Optimization, 2019
Let G = (V, E) be a digraph with a source s and a sink t. A set W of intermediate vertices in G is an s−t vertex-separating set in G if there is no directed path from s to t in the subgraph obtained from G after deleting from V all the vertices belonging to W. The digraph G is said to be k-vertex-connected from s to t if there exists an s−t vertex-separating set of cardinality k and no set with less than k intermediate vertices is an s−t vertex-separating set. In other words, G is k-vertex-connected from s to t if and only if, for any set W of k − 1 intermediate vertices, there should be a directed path from s to t which would not use any vertices from the set W. A set F of arcs in G is an s−t arc-separating set in G if there is no directed path from s to t in the subgraph obtained from G after deleting from Ε all the arcs belonging to F. The digraph G is said to be k-arc-connected from s to t if there exists an s−t arc-separating set of cardinality k and no set with less than k arcs is an s−t arc-separating set. A set C of arcs is an s−t cut in G if C is the set of all arcs in G directed from a vertex in a set S (which contains s and does not contain t) to a vertex in Τ = V − S. Any s−t cut is an s−t arc-separating set. Two directed paths from s to t in the digraph are said to be vertex-disjoint if they have no vertices in common other than s and t, and arc-disjoint if they have no arcs in common. The definitions of these concepts in the case of undirected graphs are analogous.

Given a graph G, and a subset F of . If G−F is disconnected, F is called a separating set, namely vertex-cut. A separating set F is called a k-separating set if . The maximal connected subgraphs of G−F are called components. A component is trivial if it has no edges. Otherwise, it is nontrivial. The connectivity of G is defined as the minimum k for which G has a k-separating set. Otherwise is defined as n−1 if . A graph G is said to be k-connected if . A k-separating set is called to be the minimum if .
