Network Flow Definitions Flowgraph: Directed graph with distinguished vertices s (source) and t (sink) Capacities on the edges, c(e) >= 0 Problem, assign flows f(e) to the edges such that: –0 <= f(e) <= c(e) –Flow is conserved at vertices other than s and t Flow conservation: flow going into a vertex equals the flow going out –The flow leaving the source is a large as possible
