**Problem** :↵
============= ↵
↵
Given a directed acyclic graph and capacity of every edge. Let S be set of all Max flows ( sum of flows of outgoing edges is maximum ), find the flow among S with the minimum positive-flow edges _OR_ maximum zero flow edges. ↵
↵
The problem is NP Hard. ↵
↵
I was trying to think of heuristics to approximate the sparsest max flow with a good bound but couldn't find any. The topic seems interesting but less explored. I would appreciate any kind of insights from others or already done research in this area. ↵
