Total Unimodularity

• A square, integer matrix is unimodular if its determinant is 1 or -1.

• An integer matrix A is called totally unimodular (TU) if every square, nonsingular submatrix of A is unimodular.

Sufficient Conditions for TU

An integer matrix A is TU if1. All entries are -1, 0 or 12. At most two non-zero entries appear in any column3. The rows of A can be partitioned into two disjoint

sets M1 and M2 such that• If a column has two entries of the same sign, their rows are

in different sets.• If a column has two entries of different signs, their rows are

in the same set.

• Every column has exactly one +1 and exactly one -1.• This satisfies conditions 1 and 2.

• Let the row partition be M1 = {all rows} and M2 = {}.• This satisfies condition 3.

• Thus the flow balance constraint matrix is TU.

• When we expand along minors, the determinants of the submatrices will be +1, -1, or 0.• Therefore, the determinant will be an integer: (5)(+1, -1, or 0) + (-2) (+1, -1, or 0) + 0 + (-3) (+1, -1, or 0).

TU Theorems

• Matrix A is TU if and only if AT is TU.• Matrix A is TU if and only if [A, I] is TU.

– I is the identity matrix.

• If the constraint matrix for an IP is TU, then its LP relaxation has an integral optimal solution.

• The BFSs of an MCNF LP are integer valued.
