The k-assignment polytope

Abstract: In this paper we study the structure of the k-assignment polytope, whose vertices are the m × n (0,1)-matrices with exactly k 1:s and at most one 1 in each row and each column. This is a natural generalisation of the Birkhoff polytope and many of the known properties of the Birkhoff polytope are generalised. A representation of the faces by certain bipartite graphs is given. This tool is used to describe properties of the polytope, especially a complete description of the cover relation in the face poset of th… Show more

“…The k-assignment polytope M m,n,k was studied in [8] and is defined as the convex hull over all 0/1-matrices of size m × n with exactly k number of 1, such that no row or column has more than one 1. This polytope is a natural generalization of the Birkhoff polytope; when m = n = k then M m,n,k = B n .…”

“…Then we will say that a path P is alternating (with respect to the two matchings M 1 and M 2 ) if every other edge of P lies in M 1 and the rest in M 2 . Then we can restate Theorem 13 in [8] as follows. Proof.…”
