GivenmmatroidsM1,...,Mmon the common ground setV, it is shown that all maximal subsets ofV, independent in themmatroids, can be generated in quasi-polynomial time. More generally, given a system of polymatroid inequalitiesf1(X) ≥t1,...,fm(X) ≥tmwith quasi-polynomially bounded right hand sidest1,...,tm, all minimal feasible solutionsX⊆Vto the system can be generated in incremental quasi-polynomial time. Our proof of these results is based on a combinatorial inequality for polymatroid functions which may be of independent interest. Precisely, for a polymatroid functionfand an integer thresholdt≥ 1, let α = α(f,t) denote the number of maximal setsX⊆Vsatisfyingf(X) <t, let β = β(ft) be the number of minimal setsX⊆Vfor whichf(X) ≥t, and letn= |V|. We show that α ≤ maxn,β(logt)/c, wherec=c(n,β) is the unique positive root of the equation 2c(nc/logβ - 1) = 1. In particular, our bound implies that α ≤ (nβ)logt. We also give examples of polymatroid functions with arbitrarily largetn,α and β for which α = β(1-01))logt/c.
