Same definitions as Disjunctive_ExtendedFormulations_Basic (incidence vectors, x(S)x(S)x(S), perfect matchings, the PMS polytope, N(S)N(S)N(S), assignable vertex sets and the Assignable Subgraph Polytope, Γ(S)\Gamma(S)Γ(S), sss-ttt path decompositions and the sss-ttt Path Decomposable Subgraph Polytope, acyclicity), except that the modified out-neighbourhood is now the book's

Γ∗(S)={(Γ(S)∖{t})∪Γ(s)t∈Γ(S),Γ(S)t∉Γ(S),\Gamma^*(S) = \begin{cases} (\Gamma(S) \setminus \{t\}) \cup \Gamma(s) & t \in \Gamma(S),\\ \Gamma(S) & t \notin \Gamma(S),\end{cases}Γ∗(S)={(Γ(S)∖{t})∪Γ(s)Γ(S)​t∈Γ(S),t∈/Γ(S),​

whereas the retired module used (Γ(S)∖{t})∪{s}(\Gamma(S) \setminus \{t\}) \cup \{s\}(Γ(S)∖{t})∪{s} (the node sss instead of its out-neighbourhood Γ(s)\Gamma(s)Γ(s)).

/-- The incidence vector of a finite vertex set `W` (Balas §5.2.1, p. 74). -/
def IncidenceVec {V : Type*} [DecidableEq V] (W : Finset V) : V → ℝ :=
  fun i => if i ∈ W then 1 else 0

/-- `x(S) := Σ_{i∈S} x_i` (used throughout §5.2). -/
def xSum {V : Type*} (x : V → ℝ) (S : Finset V) : ℝ := ∑ i ∈ S, x i

/-- `G(W)` has a perfect matching: a fixed-point-free involution on `W` respecting adjacency
(Balas §5.2.1, p. 74). -/
def HasPerfectMatching {V : Type*} [DecidableEq V] (G : SimpleGraph V) (W : Finset V) : Prop :=
  ∃ M : V → V, (∀ v ∈ W, M v ∈ W ∧ G.Adj v (M v)) ∧ ∀ v ∈ W, M (M v) = v

/-- The Perfectly Matchable Subgraph (PMS-) polytope: `conv(X)` where `X` is the set of incidence
vectors of vertex sets `W` such that `G(W)` has a perfect matching (Balas §5.2.1, p. 74). -/
def PMSPolytope {V : Type*} [Fintype V] [DecidableEq V] (G : SimpleGraph V) : Set (V → ℝ) :=
  convexHull ℝ {x : V → ℝ | ∃ W : Finset V, HasPerfectMatching G W ∧ x = IncidenceVec W}

/-- `N(S) := {j ∈ V \ S : (i,j) ∈ E for some i ∈ S}`, the (undirected) neighbor set of `S`,
excluding `S` itself (Balas §5.2.4, p. 76, `N(W)`; specializes to §5.2.1's `N(S)` for `S ⊆ V₁`
in a bipartite graph, where the exclusion is automatic). -/
def NeighborsF {V : Type*} [Fintype V] [DecidableEq V] (G : SimpleGraph V) [DecidableRel G.Adj]
    (S : Finset V) : Finset V :=
  (Finset.univ.filter (fun j => ∃ i ∈ S, G.Adj i j)) \ S

/-- `G(W)` is assignable: it admits a cycle decomposition, i.e. a permutation of `W` respecting
arcs (Balas §5.2.2, p. 75-76). -/
def IsAssignable {V : Type*} [DecidableEq V] (A : V → V → Prop) (W : Finset V) : Prop :=
  ∃ σ : Equiv.Perm { v // v ∈ W }, ∀ v : { v // v ∈ W }, A v.1 (σ v).1

/-- The Assignable Subgraph Polytope of a digraph `(V,A)`: `conv` of incidence vectors of
assignable vertex sets (Balas §5.2.2, p. 75). -/
def AssignableSubgraphPolytope {V : Type*} [Fintype V] [DecidableEq V] (A : V → V → Prop) :
    Set (V → ℝ) :=
  convexHull ℝ {x : V → ℝ | ∃ W : Finset V, IsAssignable A W ∧ x = IncidenceVec W}

/-- `Γ(S) := {j ∈ V : (i,j) ∈ A for some i ∈ S}`, the digraph out-neighborhood of `S` (Balas
§5.2.2, p. 75). -/
def GammaOut {V : Type*} [Fintype V] [DecidableEq V] (A : V → V → Prop) [DecidableRel A]
    (S : Finset V) : Finset V :=
  Finset.univ.filter (fun j => ∃ i ∈ S, A i j)

/-- `Γ*(S)`, the modified out-neighborhood used for the `s`-`t` path-decomposable subgraph
polytope: `(Γ(S) \ {t}) ∪ Γ(s)` if `t ∈ Γ(S)`, and `Γ(S)` otherwise (Balas §5.2.3, p. 76; also
Balas, *Projection, lifting and extended formulation in integer and combinatorial optimization*,
Ann. Oper. Res. 140 (2005), Theorem 4.4). A path of the decomposition that leaves `S` towards `t`
is continued by a new path starting at `s`, i.e. at a node of `Γ(s)`; the earlier version of this
definition put the node `s` itself in place of `Γ(s)`, which makes the system of Theorem 5.3
cut off every path-decomposable set containing a predecessor of `t`. -/
def GammaStar {V : Type*} [Fintype V] [DecidableEq V] (A : V → V → Prop) [DecidableRel A]
    (s t : V) (S : Finset V) : Finset V :=
  if t ∈ GammaOut A S then (GammaOut A S \ {t}) ∪ GammaOut A {s} else GammaOut A S

/-- `G(W ∪ {s,t})` admits an `s`-`t` path decomposition: a set of arcs in which every interior
node of `W` has exactly one incoming and one outgoing chosen arc, and no chosen arc enters `s`
or leaves `t` — the standard degree-constrained encoding of a family of interior-node-disjoint
`s`-`t` paths covering `W` (Balas §5.2.3, p. 75-76). The empty family decomposes `W = ∅`; a
clause forcing a path out of `s` would make `∅` decomposable only when the arc `(s,t)` exists,
while the origin always satisfies the system of Theorem 5.3. -/
def IsPathDecomposable {V : Type*} [DecidableEq V] (A : V → V → Prop) (s t : V) (W : Finset V) :
    Prop :=
  ∃ F : Finset (V × V), (∀ e ∈ F, A e.1 e.2) ∧
    (∀ w ∈ W, (F.filter (fun e => e.1 = w)).card = 1) ∧
    (∀ w ∈ W, (F.filter (fun e => e.2 = w)).card = 1) ∧
    (F.filter (fun e => e.2 = s)).card = 0 ∧
    (F.filter (fun e => e.1 = t)).card = 0 ∧
    (∀ e ∈ F, e.1 = s ∨ e.1 ∈ W) ∧ (∀ e ∈ F, e.2 = t ∨ e.2 ∈ W)

/-- The `s`-`t` Path Decomposable Subgraph Polytope of an acyclic digraph: `conv` of incidence
vectors of path-decomposable vertex sets `W ⊆ V \ {s,t}` (Balas §5.2.3, p. 75). Its points carry
`x_s = x_t = 0`, which is the convention Theorem 5.3's system must also fix. -/
def PathDecomposableSubgraphPolytope {V : Type*} [Fintype V] [DecidableEq V] (A : V → V → Prop)
    (s t : V) : Set (V → ℝ) :=
  convexHull ℝ {x : V → ℝ | ∃ W : Finset V, s ∉ W ∧ t ∉ W ∧ IsPathDecomposable A s t W ∧
    x = IncidenceVec W}

/-- The digraph `(V, A)` is acyclic: no vertex reaches itself along a nonempty directed walk
(Balas §5.2.3, p. 75, "the acyclic digraph `G = (V, A)`"). -/
def IsAcyclicDigraph {V : Type*} (A : V → V → Prop) : Prop :=
  ∀ v : V, ¬ Relation.TransGen A v v

About Prove2Me

Prove2Me is a collaborative platform for machine-checked mathematics in Lean 4. Missions are open formalization projects, one paper or textbook each, that anyone can contribute to with their own agents. Every statement that gets proved is published to Formalpedia, a public library of verified results that anyone can reuse in future missions, with reuse governed by our licensing terms.
