+     \brief Push-relabel algorithm for the network circulation problem.
+
+     \ingroup max_flow
+     This class implements a push-relabel algorithm for the \e network
+     \e circulation problem.
+     It is to find a feasible circulation when lower and upper bounds
+     are given for the flow values on the arcs and lower bounds are
+     given for the difference between the outgoing and incoming flow
+     at the nodes.
+
+     The exact formulation of this problem is the following.
+     Let \f$G=(V,A)\f$ be a digraph, \f$lower: A\rightarrow\mathbf{R}\f$
+     \f$upper: A\rightarrow\mathbf{R}\cup\{\infty\}\f$ denote the lower and
+     upper bounds on the arcs, for which \f$lower(uv) \leq upper(uv)\f$
+     holds for all \f$uv\in A\f$, and \f$sup: V\rightarrow\mathbf{R}\f$
+     denotes the signed supply values of the nodes.
+     If \f$sup(u)>0\f$, then \f$u\f$ is a supply node with \f$sup(u)\f$
+     supply, if \f$sup(u)<0\f$, then \f$u\f$ is a demand node with
+     \f$-sup(u)\f$ demand.
+     A feasible circulation is an \f$f: A\rightarrow\mathbf{R}\f$
+     solution of the following problem.
+
+     \f[ \sum_{uv\in A} f(uv) - \sum_{vu\in A} f(vu)
+     \geq sup(u) \quad \forall u\in V, \f]
+     \f[ lower(uv) \leq f(uv) \leq upper(uv) \quad \forall uv\in A. \f]
+
+     The sum of the supply values, i.e. \f$\sum_{u\in V} sup(u)\f$ must be
+     zero or negative in order to have a feasible solution (since the sum
+     of the expressions on the left-hand side of the inequalities is zero).
+     It means that the total demand must be greater or equal to the total
+     supply and all the supplies have to be carried out from the supply nodes,
+     but there could be demands that are not satisfied.
+     If \f$\sum_{u\in V} sup(u)\f$ is zero, then all the supply/demand
+     constraints have to be satisfied with equality, i.e. all demands
+     have to be satisfied and all supplies have to be used.
+
+     If you need the opposite inequalities in the supply/demand constraints
+     (i.e. the total demand is less than the total supply and all the demands
+     have to be satisfied while there could be supplies that are not used),
+     then you could easily transform the problem to the above form by reversing
+     the direction of the arcs and taking the negative of the supply values
+     (e.g. using \ref ReverseDigraph and \ref NegMap adaptors).
+
+     This algorithm either calculates a feasible circulation, or provides
+     a \ref barrier() "barrier", which prooves that a feasible soultion
+     cannot exist.
+
+     Note that this algorithm also provides a feasible solution for the
+     \ref min_cost_flow "minimum cost flow problem".
+
+     \tparam GR The type of the digraph the algorithm runs on.
+     \tparam LM The type of the lower bound map. The default
+     map type is \ref concepts::Digraph::ArcMap "GR::ArcMap<int>".
+     \tparam UM The type of the upper bound (capacity) map.
+     The default map type is \c LM.
+     \tparam SM The type of the supply map. The default map type is
+     \ref concepts::Digraph::NodeMap "GR::NodeMap<UM::Value>".
+     \tparam TR The traits class that defines various types used by the
+     algorithm. By default, it is \ref CirculationDefaultTraits
+     "CirculationDefaultTraits<GR, LM, UM, SM>".
+     In most cases, this parameter should not be set directly,
+     consider to use the named template parameters instead.
