Vertex adjacencies in the set covering polyhedron
We describe the adjacency of vertices of the (unbounded version of the) set
covering polyhedron, in a similar way to the description given by Chvatal for
the stable set polytope. We find a sufficient condition for adjacency, and
characterize it with similar conditions in the case where the underlying matrix
is row circular. We apply our findings to show a new infinite family of
minimally nonideal matrices.Comment: Minor revision, 22 pages, 3 figure
