流网络(Flow Networks)指的是一个有向图 G = (V, E),其中每条边 (u, v) ∈ E 均有一非负容量 c(u, v) ≥ 0。如果 (u, v) ∉ E 则可以规定 c(u, v) = 0。流网络中有两个特殊的顶点:源点 s (source)和汇点 t(sink)。为方便起见,假定每个顶点均处于从源点到汇点的某条路径上,就是说,对每个顶点 v ∈ E,存在一条路径 s --> v --> t。因此,图 G 为连通图,且 |E| ≥ |V| - 1。
下图展示了一个流网络实例。
设 G = (V, E) 是一个流网络,其容量函数为 c。设 s 为网络的源点,t 为汇点。G 的流的一个实值函数 f:V×V → R,且满足下列三个性质:
f(u, v) 称为从顶点 u 到顶点 v 的流,流的值定义为:|f| =Σv∈Vf(s, v),即从源点 s 出发的总流。
最大流问题(Maximum-flow problem)中,给出源点 s 和汇点 t 的流网络 G,希望找出从 s 到 t 的最大值流。
满足流网络的性质的实际上定义了问题的限制:
上面的图中描述的流网络可简化为下图,其中源点 s = 0,汇点 t = 5。
上图的最大流为 23,流向如下图所示。
Ford-Fulkerson 算法是一种解决最大流的方法,其依赖于三种重要思想:
这些思想是最大流最小割定理的精髓,该定理用流网络的割来描述最大流的值。
最大流最小割定理
如果 f 是具有源点 s 和汇点 t 的流网络 G = (V, E) 中的一个流,则下列条件是等价的:
- f 是 G 的一个最大流。
- 残留网络 Gf 不包含增广路径。
- 对 G 的某个割 (S, T),有 |f| = c(S, T)。
Ford-Fulkerson 算法是一种迭代方法。开始时,对所有 u, v ∈ V 有 f(u, v) = 0,即初始状态时流的值为 0。在每次迭代中,可通过寻找一条增广路径来增加流值。增广路径可以看做是从源点 s 到汇点 t 之间的一条路径,沿该路径可以压入更多的流,从而增加流的值。反复进行这一过程,直至增广路径都被找出为止。最大流最小割定理将说明在算法终止时,这一过程可产生出最大流。

上述伪码实现的时间复杂度为 O(max_flow * E)。
