Page | Line | Comment |
---|---|---|
38 | 24 | Replace 1958 by 1758. |
58 | 14 | Replace "min" by "max". |
92 | 12 | Replace "the system $Ax\le b$" by "the system describing $P$". |
138 | 35 | Replace $k \ge 1$ by $k \ge 2$. |
141 | 9 | Replace c(e):=0 by c'(e):=0. |
153 | 13-16 | The inequality system in Exercise 20 is not correct. A correct version is: $x_e\ge 0$ ($e\in E(G)$), $z_{r,u,v}\ge 0$ ($\{u,v\}\in E(G), r\in V(G)$), $\sum_{e\in E(G)}x_e=n-1$, $x_e=z_{r,u,v}+z_{r,v,u}$ ($e=\{u,v\}\in E(G)$, $r\in V(G)$), and $\sum_{\{u,v\}\in\delta(v)} z_{r,u,v}=1$ ($v\in V(G)$, $r\in V(G)\setminus \{v\}$). |
169 | 34 | Replace arborescence by tree. |
204 | 24 | One must require $c \ge c'$ in Exercise 6. |
289 | 39 | Replace $\sigma(\rho^{k_v}(v)):=r_j$ by $\sigma(\rho^{k_v-1}(v)):=r_j$. |
291 | 10 | Replace $\epsilon_3=0$ by $\epsilon_2=0$. |
303 | 25-27 | The full version of the paper by Gabow [1990] appeared in ACM Transactions on Algorithms 14 (2018), Article 39. |
324 | 1-3 | The full version of the paper by Gabow [1983] appeared in ACM Transactions on Algorithms 14 (2018), Article 39. |
351 | 30,31 | Repolace $X$ by $X_k$. |
354 | 31 | Replace "r(X)=" by "r'(X)=". |
360 | 33 | We need $y\not= z$ here. |
378 | 10 | The right-hand side of this inequality should be $\max \{ \sum_{t=(p,A,B)\in T_{i-1}} p x_t \Delta_B, \sum_{t=(p,A,B)\in T_{i-1}} p (1-x_t) \Delta_A \}$. This is sufficient because either $\Exp[f(O_{i-1})-f(O_i)] \le x_t \Delta_B$ for all $(p,A,B)\in T_{i-1}$ or $\Exp[f(O_{i-1})-f(O_i)] \le (1-x_t) \Delta_A$ for all $(p,A,B)\in T_{i-1}$; see the proof of (14.4). |
379 | 32 | In Exercise 10, one must require $f(\emptyset)=0$. |
379 | 38 | In Exercise 11, f should be integer-valued. |
381 | 30 | Replace "$f$ and any $g_C$" by "$g$ and any $f_C$". |
382 | 26-28 | The paper by Buchbinder and Feldman [2016] appeared in ACM Transactions on Algorithms 14 (2018), Article 14. |
434 | 3 | A factor 1/2 is missing on the left-hand side of the inequality. |
460 | 21-22 | The half-sentence "which is better..." makes no sense and should be deleted. |
480 | 7 | Replace (U,V,W,T) by (P,Q,R,T). |
485 | 3 | The second sum should go from 1 to h-1. |
533 | 29 | This line should read: "Set $E(G):=\delta_{G'}(X)$ and $E(H):=E(G')\setminus\delta_{G'}(X)$." |
552 | 13 | Replace G+f by G[T]+f. |
557 | 21 | We can choose $Y^*_k$ to be an optimum Steiner tree here. |
558 | 13 | The second sum should of course go over $C\in\delta^+_{\mathcal{C}^k}(U)$. |
573/574 | 19/25 | Lemma 20.38 and Theorem 20.39 also hold when f can have negative values (which can happen when we apply the Theorem). |
584 | 33 | We set $x'_e:=\frac{1}{1-\alpha}x_e$. |
628 | 28-29 | The paper by Svensson, Tarnawski and Végh [2017] appeared in the Journal of the ACM 67 (2020), Article 37. |
628 | 30-32 | The paper by Traub and Vygen [2018] appeared in the Journal of the ACM 66 (2019), Article 14. |
630 | 29-30 | Replace "greater than 1" by "greater than 2". |
