   112      \brief Push-relabel algorithm for the network circulation problem.
   113 
   114      \ingroup max_flow
   115      This class implements a push-relabel algorithm for the \e network
   116      \e circulation problem.
   117      It is to find a feasible circulation when lower and upper bounds
   118      are given for the flow values on the arcs and lower bounds are
   119      given for the difference between the outgoing and incoming flow
   120      at the nodes.
   121 
   122      The exact formulation of this problem is the following.
   123      Let \f$G=(V,A)\f$ be a digraph, \f$lower: A\rightarrow\mathbf{R}\f$
   124      \f$upper: A\rightarrow\mathbf{R}\cup\{\infty\}\f$ denote the lower and
   125      upper bounds on the arcs, for which \f$lower(uv) \leq upper(uv)\f$
   126      holds for all \f$uv\in A\f$, and \f$sup: V\rightarrow\mathbf{R}\f$
   127      denotes the signed supply values of the nodes.
   128      If \f$sup(u)>0\f$, then \f$u\f$ is a supply node with \f$sup(u)\f$
   129      supply, if \f$sup(u)<0\f$, then \f$u\f$ is a demand node with
   130      \f$-sup(u)\f$ demand.
   131      A feasible circulation is an \f$f: A\rightarrow\mathbf{R}\f$
   132      solution of the following problem.
   133 
   134      \f[ \sum_{uv\in A} f(uv) - \sum_{vu\in A} f(vu)
   135      \geq sup(u) \quad \forall u\in V, \f]
   136      \f[ lower(uv) \leq f(uv) \leq upper(uv) \quad \forall uv\in A. \f]
   137      
   138      The sum of the supply values, i.e. \f$\sum_{u\in V} sup(u)\f$ must be
   139      zero or negative in order to have a feasible solution (since the sum
   140      of the expressions on the left-hand side of the inequalities is zero).
   141      It means that the total demand must be greater or equal to the total
   142      supply and all the supplies have to be carried out from the supply nodes,
   143      but there could be demands that are not satisfied.
   144      If \f$\sum_{u\in V} sup(u)\f$ is zero, then all the supply/demand
   145      constraints have to be satisfied with equality, i.e. all demands
   146      have to be satisfied and all supplies have to be used.
   147      
   148      If you need the opposite inequalities in the supply/demand constraints
   149      (i.e. the total demand is less than the total supply and all the demands
   150      have to be satisfied while there could be supplies that are not used),
   151      then you could easily transform the problem to the above form by reversing
   152      the direction of the arcs and taking the negative of the supply values
   153      (e.g. using \ref ReverseDigraph and \ref NegMap adaptors).
   154 
   155      This algorithm either calculates a feasible circulation, or provides
   156      a \ref barrier() "barrier", which prooves that a feasible soultion
   157      cannot exist.
   158 
   159      Note that this algorithm also provides a feasible solution for the
   160      \ref min_cost_flow "minimum cost flow problem".
   161 
   162      \tparam GR The type of the digraph the algorithm runs on.
   163      \tparam LM The type of the lower bound map. The default
   164      map type is \ref concepts::Digraph::ArcMap "GR::ArcMap<int>".
   165      \tparam UM The type of the upper bound (capacity) map.
   166      The default map type is \c LM.
   167      \tparam SM The type of the supply map. The default map type is
   168      \ref concepts::Digraph::NodeMap "GR::NodeMap<UM::Value>".
