Applications of LP Duality: Matchings, Flows and Shortest Path
In this video we put duality to use. Specifically, we will
1.) prove Hall's theorem, which characterizes when a bipartite graph has a perfect matching based on the duality of max-matching and min-vertex-cover in bipartite graphs (König's theorem)
2.) see two LP formulations of the Max-Flow, which lead to different formulations of Min-Cut (and proving through LP duality the Max-Flow Min-Cut theorem)
3.) Dualize the flow-based formulation of the shortest path problem
One tool used in these applications and discussed in the video are totally unimodular matrices.
