Abstract

We give an incremental polynomial time algorithm for enumerating the vertices of any polyhedron P(A,1)=\x∈\RRn | Ax≥ \b1,~x≥ \b0\, when A is a totally unimodular matrix. Our algorithm is based on decomposing the hypergraph transversal problem for unimodular hypergraphs using Seymour's decomposition of totally unimodular matrices, and may be of independent interest.
