Simple Extended Formulation for the Dominating Set Polytope via Facility Location

چکیده
In this paper we present an extended formulation for the dominating set polytope via facility location. We show that with this formulation we may describe the dominating set polytope for some class of graphs as cacti graphs, though its description in the natural node variables dimension has been only partially obtained. Moreover, the inequalities describing this polytope have coefficients in {−1, 0, 1}. This is not the case for the dominating set polytope in the node-variables dimension. It is known from [9] that for any integer p, there exists a facet defining inequality having coefficients in {1, . . . , p}. We also show a decomposition theorem by means of 1-sums. Again this decomposition is much simpler with the extended formulation than with the nodevariables formulation given in [10]. We also give a linear time algorithm to solve the minimum dominating set problem in cacti graphs.

Cuckoo search via Levy flights applied to uncapacitated facility location problem
Facility location problem (FLP) is a mathematical way to optimally locate facilities within a set of candidates to satisfy the requirements of a given set of clients. This study addressed the uncapacitated FLP as it assures that the capacity of every selected facility is finite. Thus, even if the demand is not known, which often is the case, in reality, organizations may still be able to take s...
متن کاملModelling Decision Problems Via Birkhoff Polyhedra
A compact formulation of the set of tours neither in a graph nor its complement is presented and illustrates a general methodology proposed for constructing polyhedral models of decision problems based upon permutations, projection and lifting techniques. Directed Hamilton tours on n vertex graphs are interpreted as (n-1)- permutations. Sets of extrema of Birkhoff polyhedra are mapped to tours ...

متن کاملHeuristic Methods Based on MINLP Formulation for Reliable Capacitated Facility Location Problems
This paper addresses a reliable facility location problem with considering facility capacity constraints. In reliable facility location problem some facilities may become unavailable from time to time. If a facility fails, its clients should refer to other facilities by paying the cost of retransfer to these facilities. Hence, the fail of facilities leads to disruptions in facility location dec...
متن کاملOn the independent dominating set polytope
In this paper, we consider the independent dominating set polytope. We give a complete linear description of that polytope when the graph is reduced to a cycle. This description uses a general class of valid inequalities introduced in [T.M. Contenza, Some results on the dominating set polytope, Ph.D. Dissertation, University of Kentucky, 2000]. We devise a polynomial time separation algorithm f...
