    Description: Given two hypergraphs, representing a fine and a coarse "layer", and a cycle cover of the nodes of the coarse layer, the cycle embedding problem (CEP) asks for an embedding of the coarse cycles into the fine layer. The CEP is NP-hard for general hypergraphs, but it can be solved in polynomial time for graphs. We propose an integer rogramming formulation for the CEP that provides a complete escription of the CEP polytope for the graphical case. The CEP comes up in railway vehicle rotation scheduling. We present computational results for problem instances of DB Fernverkehr AG that justify a sequential coarse-first-fine-second planning approach.

    Description: The track allocation problem, also known as train routing problem or train timetabling problem, is to find a conflict-free set of train routes of maximum value in a railway network. Although it can be modeled as a standard path packing problem, instances of sizes relevant for real-world railway applications could not be solved up to now. We propose a rapid branching column generation approach that integrates the solution of the LP relaxation of a path coupling formulation of the problem with a special rounding heuristic. The approach is based on and exploits special properties of the bundle method for the approximate solution of convex piecewise linear functions. Computational results for difficult instances of the benchmark library TTPLIB are reported.

    Description: This paper presents a case study on a railway timetable optimization for the very dense Simplon corridor, a major railway connection in the Alps between Switzerland and Italy. Starting from a detailed microscopic network as it is used in railway simulation, the data is transformed by an automatic procedure to a less detailed macroscopic network, that is sufficient for the purpose of capacity planning and amenable to state-of-the-art integer programming optimization methods. In this way, the macroscopic railway network is saturated with trains. Finally, the corresponding timetable is re-transformed to the microscopic level in such a way that it can be operated without any conflicts among the slots. Using this integer programming based micro-macro aggregation-disaggregation approach, it becomes for the first time possible to generate a profit maximal and conflict free timetable for the complete Simplon corridor over an entire day by a simultaneous optimization of all trains requests. This also allows to to undertake a sensitivity analysis of various problem parameters.

    Description: Line planning is an important step in the strategic planning process of a public transportation system. In this paper, we discuss an optimization model for this problem in order to minimize operation costs while guaranteeing a certain level of quality of service, in terms of available transport capacity. We analyze the problem for path and tree network topologies as well as several categories of line operation that are important for the Quito Trolebus system. It turns out that, from a computational complexity worst case point of view, the problem is hard in all but the most simple variants. In practice, however, instances based on real data from the Trolebus System in Quito can be solved quite well, and significant optimization potentials can be demonstrated.

    Description: We introduce the class of spot-checking games (SC games). These games model problems where the goal is to distribute fare inspectors over a toll network. In an SC game, the pure strategies of network users correspond to paths in a graph, and the pure strategies of the inspectors are subset of edges to be controlled. Although SC games are not zero-sum, we show that a Nash equilibrium can be computed by linear programming. The computation of a strong Stackelberg equilibrium is more relevant for this problem, but we show that this is NP-hard. However, we give some bounds on the \emph{price of spite}, which measures how the payoff of the inspector degrades when committing to a Nash equilibrium. Finally, we demonstrate the quality of these bounds for a real-world application, namely the enforcement of a truck toll on German motorways.

    Description: Nach einem kurzen Abriss über die Bedeutung des Verkehrssektors als eine wichtige Schlüsseltechnologie im gesamten Verlauf der Menschheitsgeschichte skizzieren wir die Rolle der Mathematik für Verkehr und Transport. Wir spekulieren dann über zukünftige Entwicklungen, insbesondere im Bereich des öffentlichen Personenverkehrs, und begründen, dass die in diesem Bereich anstehenden Herausforderungen nur mit dem Einsatz mathematischer Methoden angemessen bewältigt werden können. Die demographischen Prozesse, die in verschiedenen Teilen der Welt unterschiedlich verlaufen, wie z.B. Überalterung in Europa oder dynamische Trends zu Megastädten in Entwicklungsländern, sich ändernde Lebens- und Produktionsverhältnisse, stark wachsender Bedarf nach Mobilität und enormes Anwachsen der Komplexität der Verkehrsplanung und -durchführung, machen einen verstärkten Zugriff auf mathematische Modellierung, Simulation und Optimierung notwendig. Diese Entwicklung stellt sowohl große Herausforderungen an die Mathematik, wo vielfach noch keine geeigneten Methoden vorhanden sind, als auch an die Praktiker im Bereich von Verkehr und Transport, die sich mit neuen Planungs- und Steuerungstechnologien befassen und diese effizient einsetzen müssen. Hier wird intensive Kooperation zwischen vielen beteiligten Akteuren gefragt sein.
