Definition • A above Q
Optimality • If A above Q, the algorithm continues. • If A is not optimal, the algorithm does not terminate at A. • Since the algorithm must terminate in a finite number of steps, the result is an optimal partition
Lemma1 Let A > Q. Then the algorithm does not terminate. It makes a down-shift with resulting down-component of weight ≥ Wmin(Q).
Lemma2 • Let A > Q. Let the application of one down-shift of the algorithm change A to A’. Then there exists an optimal partition Q’ such that A’≥ Q’.
