Theoretical challenges towards cutting-plane selection

SS Dey, M Molinaro - Mathematical Programming, 2018 - Springer
While many classes of cutting-planes are at the disposal of integer programming solvers, our
scientific understanding is far from complete with regards to cutting-plane selection, ie, the …

Analysis of sparse cutting planes for sparse milps with applications to stochastic milps

SS Dey, M Molinaro, Q Wang - Mathematics of Operations …, 2018 - pubsonline.informs.org
In this paper, we present an analysis of the strength of sparse cutting planes for mixed
integer linear programs (MILP) with sparse formulations. We examine three kinds of …

On the power and limitations of branch and cut

N Fleming, M Göös, R Impagliazzo, T Pitassi… - arxiv preprint arxiv …, 2021 - arxiv.org
The Stabbing Planes proof system was introduced to model the reasoning carried out in
practical mixed integer programming solvers. As a proof system, it is powerful enough to …

New SOCP relaxation and branching rule for bipartite bilinear programs

SS Dey, A Santana, Y Wang - Optimization and Engineering, 2019 - Springer
A bipartite bilinear program (BBP) is a quadratically constrained quadratic optimization
problem where the variables can be partitioned into two sets such that fixing the variables in …

Approximating the Gomory Mixed-Integer Cut Closure Using Historical Data

B Becu, SS Dey, F Qiu, AS Xavier - arxiv preprint arxiv:2411.15090, 2024 - arxiv.org
Many operations related optimization problems involve repeatedly solving similar mixed
integer linear programming (MILP) instances with the same constraint matrix but differing …

Multi-cover inequalities for totally-ordered multiple knapsack sets: theory and computation

A Del Pia, J Linderoth, H Zhu - Mathematical Programming, 2023 - Springer
We propose a method to generate cutting-planes from multiple covers of knapsack
constraints. The covers may come from different knapsack inequalities if the weights in the …

On obtaining the convex hull of quadratic inequalities via aggregations

SS Dey, G Munoz, F Serrano - SIAM Journal on Optimization, 2022 - SIAM
A classical approach for obtaining valid inequalities for a set involves the analysis of
relaxations constructed using aggregations of the inequalities that describe such a set …

Aggregations of quadratic inequalities and hidden hyperplane convexity

G Blekherman, SS Dey, S Sun - SIAM Journal on Optimization, 2024 - SIAM
We study properties of the convex hull of a set described by quadratic inequalities. A simple
way of generating inequalities valid on is to take nonnegative linear combinations of the …

Lifting convex inequalities for bipartite bilinear programs

X Gu, SS Dey, JPP Richard - Mathematical Programming, 2023 - Springer
The goal of this paper is to derive new classes of valid convex inequalities for quadratically
constrained quadratic programs (QCQPs) through the technique of lifting. Our first main …
