We propose a new simple general model for this problem. It i s based on a demand function and constraints for the different fares. The constraints define the structure of the fare system, e.g., distance dependent fares or zone fares. We discuss a simple example with a quadratic demand function and distance dependent fares. Then we introduce a more realistic discrete choice model in which passengers choose between different alternatives depending on the numb er of trips per month. We demonstrate the examples by computational experiments.}, language = {en} } @misc{BorndoerferNeumannPfetsch, author = {Bornd{\"o}rfer, Ralf and Neumann, Marika and Pfetsch, Marc}, title = {The Steiner Connectivity Problem}, issn = {1438-0064}, doi = {10.1007/s10107-012-0564-5}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:0297-zib-11171}, number = {09-07}, abstract = {The Steiner connectivity problem is a generalization of the Steiner tree problem.

We show that polyhedral and algorithmic results on the Steiner tree problem carry over to the Steiner connectivity problem, namely, the Steiner cut and the Steiner partition inequalities, as well as the associated polynomial time separation algorithms, can be generalized. Similar to the Steiner tree case, a directed formulation, which is stronger than the natural undirected one, plays a central role.}, language = {en} } @misc{BorndoerferNeumannPfetsch, author = {Bornd{\"o}rfer, Ralf and Neumann, Marika and Pfetsch, Marc}, title = {Angebotsplanung im {\"o}ffentlichen Nahverkehr}, issn = {1438-0064}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:0297-zib-10555}, number = {08-04}, abstract = {Die Angebotsplanung im {\"o}ffentlichen Nahverkehr umfasst die Aufgaben der Netz-, Linien-,Fahr- und Preisplanung.
