Lipschitz continuity conjecture for Riemannian max-flow solution sets
Lipschitz continuity conjecture for Riemannian max-flow solution sets
Let be a continuous family of metrics on a Riemannian manifold whose boundary has non-outward-pointing mean curvature. Let be a manifold dividing some number of boundary components of into pieces and , with . Fix a class
and consider the max-flow problem for flows dual to . Let be the infinite-dimensional convex set of max flows. Lipschitz continuity conjecture. The set varies in a Lipschitz continuous fashion as a function of , viewed as a subset of the Banach space of vector fields with the pointwise () norm. The conjecture is the Riemannian analogue of the established continuity result for perturbed graph max-flow problems. It remains open because unresolved analytical questions prevent the conjecture from being stated as a theorem.
