Linear Programs, Violators, and Random Walks

Violator spaces are a very general framework for the analysis of linear programs and related optimization problems. We define the closely related, but simpler, notion of "violator graphs". We use violator graphs to close a gap between the known bounds for the number of violator spaces. We go on to generalize a fixed-dimension lower bound for an optimizing random walk to the setting of violator graphs.
