Monotonicity of polymatroids (Q796543)

For polymatroids, there is no number t such that the t-monotonicity implies the k-monotonicity for any \(k>t\). The monotonicity of polymatroids is a number m such that the polymatroid is k-monotone if and only if \(k<m\). The authors compute the value of m expressed as a function of the rank function of the polymatroid.
