Andreas Pinkwart, Minister of Economics and Innovation, presented the honorary award to the director of the Research Institute for Discrete Mathematics in recognition of his life‘s work. The award ceremony took place as part of a hybrid celebration in Düsseldorf and online. The focus of his scientific work is the usage of combinatorial optimization to solve highly complex problems. Especially in chip design, Bernhard Korte has set standards worldwide. The “BonnTools” developed under his leadership are pro- grams with which the manufacturers of computer chips can optimize the layout of their products and thus make them energy-saving and as small and fast as possible. More than 3,000 highly complex microprocessors have already been developed with it, including the chip that won a chess game against Kasparov, and the processor from SUMMIT from Oak Ridge National Laboratory, USA; which was the fastest computer in the world for several years. The “BonnTools” have made a major contribution to technological progress in this are.

  • Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach Combinatorial
    Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach Report No. 53/2011 DOI: 10.4171/OWR/2011/53 Combinatorial Optimization Organised by Michel X. Goemans, Cambridge, MA Monique Laurent, Amsterdam and Tilburg Jens Vygen, Bonn and Grenoble November 13th – November 19th, 2011 Abstract. Combinatorial Optimization is a very active field that benefits from bringing together ideas from different areas, e.g., graph theory and com- binatorics, matroids and submodularity, connectivity and network flows, ap- proximation algorithms and mathematical programming, discrete and com- putational geometry, discrete and continuous problems, algebraic and geo- metric methods, and applications. We continued the long tradition of trian- nual Oberwolfach workshops, bringing together the best researchers from the above areas, discovering new connections, and establishing new and deepen- ing existing international collaborations. Mathematics Subject Classification (2000): 90C27; secondary: 90C57, 90C10, 90C11, 90C22, 90C06, 90C59, 90C90. Introduction by the Organisers The triannual Oberwolfach workshops on Combinatorial Optimization play a key role for our field. No other workshop manages to bring together the best re- searchers from all over the world. This success is due to the outstanding research conditions at Oberwolfach, to the unique format of Oberwolfach workshops, and above all to their reputation of excellence. Continuing the tradition, the program consisted of pre-arranged one-hour focus lectures - one each morning - followed by 24 thirty-minute presentations that were scheduled during the week. As a new feature for the combinatorial optimization workshops, all participants were asked to give a short presentation (four minutes plus one minute discussion) on their recent or current work at the beginning of the workshop. There were more than 50 of these short presentations on Monday 3004 Oberwolfach Report 53/2011 and Tuesday; a list of titles appear in this report.

Besides updates, new exercises, and a few corrections, it contains the following new material. Section 7.4 is devoted to shallow-light trees. Section 14.6 contains the recent two-factor approximation algorithm for submodular function maximization. Sec- tion 17.5 discusses the Nemhauser-Ullmann algorithm and smoothed analysis. In Section 20.3,wepresentthe(ln 4 + )-factor approximation algorithm for the Steiner tree problem. Finally, Section 20.7 contains the VPN theorem. There are also small additions, e.g. on the integrality ratio in Section 5.1 and kernelization in Section 15.7. We would like to thank Maxim Babenko, Steffen Böhmer, Ulrich Brenner, György Dósa, Michael Etscheid, Jean Fonlupt, Michel Goemans, Stephan Held, Stefan Hougardy, Jochen Könemann, Solomon Lo, Jens Maßberg, Neil Olver, Dieter Rautenbach, Heiko Röglin, Jan Schneider, Sophie Spirkl, and Uri Zwick for feedback on the previous edition or proofreading new parts. We hope that, with this new edition, the book remains useful for research and teaching for many years to come.

One area that I have always kept an eye on is By Martin Grötschel that of perfect graphs. These graphs, introduced in the late ‘50s and early ‘60s by Claude Berge, link various mathemati- Tcal disciplines in a truly unexpected way: graph theory, combinatorial optimization, semidefinite programming, polyhedral and convexity theo- ry, and even information theory. This is not a survey of perfect graphs. It’s just an appetizer.To learn about the origins of perfect graphs, I recommend reading the historical papers [1] and [2]. The book [3] is a collection of important articles on perfect graphs. Algorithmic aspects of perfect graphs are treated in [13]. A comprehensive survey of graph classes, including perfect graphs, can be found in [5]. Hundreds of classes of perfect graphs are known; 96 impor- tant classes and the inclusion relations among them are described in [16]. So, what is a perfect graph? Complete graphs are perfect; bipartite, interval, comparability, triangulated, parity, and unimodular graphs are perfect as well. The following beautiful perfect graph is the line graph of the complete bipartite graph K 3,3.
