Fulkerson died in Ithaca, New York on 31 January 3996. To honor his memory we thought it fitting to organize a volume dedicated to him, containing articles describing his contributions as well as him as a man, but primarily devoted to a subject matter to which he was a principal contributor. “Polyhedral combinatorics,” the interplay between concepts from combinatorial theory and mathematical programming, was the central theme of Ray’s research, and this volume attests to the interest and continuing activity in the area. Two issues of other journals have been dedicated to Fulkerson: Mathematics of Operations Research, Volume 3, Number 6 (November 3996) and The Journal of Combinatorial Theory Series B, Volume 33, Number 3 (August 3999). Further, the Mathematical Programming Society and the American Mathematical Society are jointly sponsoring the Fulkerson Prize for outstanding research in discrete mathematics which, starting in 3999, will be presented at each (triennial) International Symposium of the Mathematical Programming Society.
