Wheel Facets of the OLS Polytope

چکیده
Wheel structures of the Orthogonal Latin Squares (OLS) polytope (PI) are presented in [2]. The current work focuses on the families of valid inequalities arising from wheels and proves that certain among them are facet-defining for PI . For two of these families we provide efficient separation procedures. We also present results regarding odd-hole inequalities, which essentially form a larger class encompassing that of wheel inequalities.

Properties and Classification of the Wheels of the OLS Polytope
A wheel in a graph G(V, E) is an induced subgraph consisting of an odd hole and an additional node connected to all nodes of the hole. In this paper, we study the wheels of the column intersection graph of the OLS polytope (PI). These structures induce valid inequalities for this polytope, which are facet defining for its set packing relaxation. Our work builds on simple structural properties o...
متن کاملOn the facets of the simple plant location packing polytope
We introduce new classes of facet-de0ning inequalities for the polytope P associated with the set packing formulation of the simple plant location problem (SPLP) with p plants and d destinations. The inequalities are obtained by identifying subgraphs of the intersection graph G(p; d) of SPLP that are facet-de0ning, and lifting their associated facets if it is necessary. To this end, we 0nd subf...
متن کاملClique Facets of the Orthogonal Latin Squares Polytope∗
Since 1782, when Euler addressed the question of existence of a pair of Orthogonal Latin Squares (OLS) by stating his famous conjecture ([8, 9, 13]), these structures have remained an active area of research due to their theoretical properties as well as their applications in a variety of fields. In the current work we consider the polyhedral aspects of OLS. In particular we establish the dimen...
متن کاملFacets for the cut cone II: Clique-web inequalities
We study new classes of facets for the cut cone C, generated by the cuts of the complete graph on n vertices. This cone can also be interpreted as the cone of all semi-metrics on n points that are isometrically l~-embeddable and, in fact, the study of the facets of the cut polytope is in some sense equivalent to the study of the facets of C~. These new facets belong to the class of clique-web i...
متن کاملNew facets for the planar subgraph polytope
This paper describes certain facet classes for the planar subgraph polytope. These facets are extensions of Kuratowski facets and are of the form 2x(U)+x(E(G)\U) ≤ 2|U |+|E(G)\U | −2 where the edge set U varies and can be empty. Two of the new types of facets complete the class of extended subdivision facets, explored by Jünger and Mutzel. In addition, the other types of facets consist of a new...
