Column generation has become a powerful tool in solving large scale integer programs. It is well known that most of the often reported compatibility issues between pricing subprobl...

Branching in mixed-integer (or integer) linear programming requires choosing both the branching variable and the branching direction. This paper develops a number of new methods f...
In this paper we present a methodology for finding tight convex relaxations for a special set of quadratic constraints given by bilinear and linear terms that frequently arise in ...
We present greedy algorithms for some classes of combinatorial packing and cover problems within the general formal framework of Hoffman and Schwartz' lattice polyhedra. Our ...
We present a branch-and-bound algorithm for minimizing a convex quadratic objective function over integer variables subject to convex constraints. In a given node of the enumerati...
