Let G = (V, E) be a directed graph, and let wv be the weight of vertex v for every v ∈ V . We say that a directed edgee = (u, v) is d-covered by a multi-set (a set that can contain elements more than one time) of vertices S if either u isin S at least once, or v is in S at least twice. The weight of a multi-set of vertices S is the sum of the weights of thevertices (where vertices that appear more than once, appear in the sum more than once).1. Write an IP that finds the multi-set S that d-cover all edges, and minimizes the weight.2. Write an LP that relaxes the IP.3. Describe a rounding scheme that guarantees a 2-approximation to the best multi-set
Be G=(V, E)a connected graph and u, vEV. The distance Come in u and v, denoted by d(u, v), is
the length of the shortest path between u'and v, Meanwhile he width from G, denoted as A(G), is
the greatest distance between two of its vertices.
a) Show that if A(G) 24 then A(G) <2.
b) Show that if G has a cut vertex and A(G) = 2, then Ġhas a vertex with no
neighbors.
We are given a graph G = (V, E); G could be a directed graph or undirected graph. Let M bethe adjacency matrix of G. Let n be the number of vertices so that the matrix M is n ×n matrix. For anymatrix A, let us denote the element of i-th row and j-th column of the matrix A by A[i, j].1. Consider the square of the adjacency matrix M . For all i and j, show that M 2[i, j] is the number ofdifferent paths of length 2 from the i-th vertex to the j-th vertex. It should be explained or proved asclearly as possible.2. For any positive integer k, show that M k[i, j] is the number of different paths of length k from the i-th vertex to the j-th vertex. You may use induction on k to prove it.3. Assume that we are given a positive integer k. Design an algorithm to find the number of different paths of length k from the i-th vertex to j-th vertex for all pairs of (i, j). The time complexity of your algorithm should be O(n3 log k). You can get partial credits if you design an algorithm of O(n3k).

- We are given an undirected connected graph G = (V, E) and vertices s and t.Initially, there is a robot at position s and we want to move this robot to position t by moving it along theedges of the graph; at any time step, we can move the robot to one of the neighboring vertices and the robotwill reach that vertex in the next time step.However, we have a problem: at every time step, a subset of vertices of this graph undergo maintenance andif the robot is on one of these vertices at this time step, it will be destroyed (!). Luckily, we are given theschedule of the maintenance for the next T time steps in an array M [1 : T ], where each M [i] is a linked-listof the vertices that undergo maintenance at time step i.Design an algorithm that finds a route for the robot to go from s to t in at most T seconds so that at notime i, the robot is on one of the maintained vertices, or output that this is not possible.

We say that a set of vertices C form a vertex cover if every edge of G is incident to at least one vertex in C. We say that a set of vertices I form an independent set if no edge in G connects two vertices from I. For example, if G is the graph above, C = [b, d, e, f, g, h, j] is a vertex cover since each of the 20 edges in the graph has at least one endpoint in C, and I = = [a, c, i, k] is an independent set because none of these edges appear in the graph: ac, ai, ak, ci, ck, ik. 2a In the example above, notice that each vertex belongs to the vertex cover C or the independent set I. Do you think that this is a coincidence? 2b In the above graph, clearly explain why the maximum size of an independent set is 5. In other words, carefully explain why there does not exist an independent set with 6 or more vertices.arrow_forwardThe minimum vertex cover problem is stated as follows: Given an undirected graph G = (V, E) with N vertices and M edges.

In other words you want to find a minimal subset of vertices that together touch all the edges. For example, the set of vertices X = {a,c} constitutes a minimum vertex cover for the following graph: a---b---c---g d e Formulate the minimum vertex cover problem as a Genetic Algorithm or another form of evolutionary optimization. You may use binary representation, OR any repre- sentation that you think is more appropriate. you should specify: • A fitness function. Give 3 examples of individuals and their fitness values if you are solving the above example. • A set of mutation and/or crossover and/or repair operators. Intelligent operators that are suitable for this particular domain will earn more credit. • A termination criterion for the…arrow_forward
- Given an undirected graph G = (V, E), a vertex cover is a subset of V so that every edge in E has at least one endpoint in the vertex cover.

- Consider a weighted, directed graph G with n vertices and m edges that have integer weights. A graph walk is a sequence of not-necessarily-distinct vertices v1, v2, ... , Vk such that each pair of consecutive vertices Vi, Vi+1 are connected by an edge. This is similar to a path, except a walk can have repeated vertices and edges. The length of a walk in a weighted graph is the sum of the weights of the edges in the walk. Let s, t be given vertices in the graph, and L be a positive integer. We are interested counting the number of walks from s to t of length exactly L. Assume all the edge weights are positive. Describe an algorithm that computes the number of graph walks from s to t of length exactly L in O((n+ m)L) time. Prove the correctness and analyze the running time.
