@tungnk1993 I read and understood maxflow from Topcoder Tutorial after I read it in book of Graph theory by narsimha Deo… You will find the tutorial very entertaining and the Links to topcoder problems and UVA problems on maxflow is provided there.

I will provide you the links to problems here also.

  1. Rook Attack
  2. Graduation
  3. Parking
  4. Crimewave
  5. A plug for UNIX
  6. EN
  7. POTHOLE
  8. Selfish Cities
  9. Internet Bandwidth
  10. Greedy Islands
  11. Playing Cubes
  12. Data Filter

Note that the problems Selfish cities,EN and Greedy Islands are on Mincost maxflow.
