Stabilizer-based symmetry breaking constraints for mathematical programs

Mathematical programs whose formulation is symmetric often take a long time to solve using Branch-and-Bound type algorithms, because of the several symmetric optima. A simple technique used in these cases is to adjoin symmetry breaking constraints to the formulation before solving the problem. These constraints: (a) aim to guarantee that at least one optimum is feasible, whilst making some of t...

On the generation of symmetry breaking constraints for mathematical programs

Mathematical programs whose formulation is symmetric often take a long time to solve using Branch-and-Bound type algorithms, because of the several symmetric optima. One of the techniques used to decrease the adverse effects of symmetry is adjoining symmetry breaking constraints to the formulation before solving the problem. These constraints aim to make some of the symmetric optima infeasible ...

General Symmetry Breaking Constraints

We describe some new propagators for breaking symmetries in constraint satisfaction problems. We also introduce symmetry breaking constraints to deal with symmetries acting simultaneously on variables and values, conditional symmetries, as well as symmeties acting on set and other types of variables.

Dynamic Symmetry Breaking Constraints

We present a general method for dynamically posting symmetry breaking constraints during search. The basic idea is very simple. Given any set of symmetry breaking constraints, if during search a symmetry of one of these constraints is entailed and this is consistent with previously posted symmetry breaking constraints, then we post this constraint. We illustrate the method with two examples whe...

Symmetry Breaking Ordering Constraints

In a constraint satisfaction problem (CSP), symmetry involves the variables, values in the domains, or both, and maps each search state into an equivalent one. When searching for solutions, symmetrically equivalent (partial) assignments can dramatically increase the search space. Hence, elimination of symmetry is essential to avoid exploring equivalent branches in a search tree. An important cl...
