A conic integer program is an integer programming problem with conic constraints.Manyproblems infinance, engineering, statistical learning, andprobabilistic optimization aremodeled using conic constraints. Herewe studymixed-integer sets definedby second-order conic constraints.We introduce general-purpose cuts for conic mixed-integer programming based on polyhedral conic substructures of second...

In the rst part of the paper we present a framework for describing basic tech niques to improve the representation of a mixed integer programming problem We elaborate on identi cation of infeasibility and redundancy improvement of bounds and coe cients and xing of binary variables In the second part of the paper we discuss recent extensions to these basic techniques and elaborate on the investi...

In this paper, bi-level programming is proposed for designing a competitive supply chain network. A two-stage stochastic programming approach has been developed for a multi-product supply chain comprising a capacitated supplier, several distribution centers, retailers and some resellers in the market. The proposed model considers demand’s uncertainty and disruption in distribution centers and t...

Dynamic lot sizing problem is one of the significant problem in industrial units and it has been considered by  many researchers. Considering the quantity discount in  purchasing cost is one of the important and practical assumptions in the field of inventory control models and it has been less focused in terms of stochastic version of dynamic lot sizing problem. In  this paper, stochastic dyn...

Multi-objective integer or mixed-integer programming problems typically have disconnected feasible domains, making the task of constructing an approximation Pareto front challenging. The present article shows that certain algorithms were originally devised for continuous can be successfully adapted to approximate integer, and mixed-integer, multi-objective problems. Relationships amongst variou...

In this paper we present several algorithms which combine a partial enumeration with meta-heuristics for the solution of general mixed-integer programming problems. The enumeration is based on the primal values assignable to the integer variables of the problem. We develop some algorithms for this integration, and test them using a set of well-known benchmark problems. Key-words: Enumeration, L...

Lifting is a procedure for deriving strong valid inequalities for a closed set from inequalities that are valid for its lower dimensional restrictions. It is arguably one of the most effective ways of strengthening linear programming relaxations of 0–1 programming problems. Wolsey (1977) and Gu et al. (2000) show that superadditive lifting functions lead to sequence independent lifting of valid...

Inspired by Fu et al. work [12] on modeling the exclusive-or differential property of the modulo addition as an mixed-integer programming problem, we propose a method with which any finite automaton can be formulated as an mixed-integer programming model. Using this method, we show how to construct a mixed integer programming model whose feasible region is the set of all differential patterns (...

For many years the mathematical programming community has realized the practical importance of developing algorithmic tools for tackling mixed integer optimization problems. Given our ability to solve linear optimization problems efficiently, one is inclined to think that a mixed integer program with both continuous and discrete variables is easier than a pure integer programming problem since ...

This survey presents tools from polyhedral theory that are used in integer programming. It applies them to the study of valid inequalities for mixed integer linear sets, such as Gomory’s mixed integer cuts.
