Duality theorems for a class of non-linear programming problems.

Similarity:

Duality of linear programming is used to establish an important duality theorem for a class of non-linear programming problems. Primal problem has quasimonotonic objective function and a convex polyhedron as its constraint set.

On the central path for nonlinear semidefinite programming

Similarity:

In this paper we study the well definedness of the central path associated to a given nonlinear (convex) semidefinite programming problem. Under standard assumptions, we establish that the existence of the central path is equivalent to the nonemptiness and boundedness of the optimal set. Other equivalent conditions are given, such as the existence of a strictly dual feasible point or the existence of a single central point.The monotonic behavior of the logarithmic barrier and the objective...

Column-Generation in Integer Linear Programming

Nelson Maculan, Marcos de Mendonça Passini, José André de Moura Brito, Irene Loiseau (2010)

RAIRO - Operations Research

Similarity:

We present an exact method for integer linear programming problems that combines branch and bound with column generation at each node of the search tree. For the case of models involving binary column vectors only, we propose the use of so-called geometrical cuts to be added to the subproblem in order to eliminate previously generated columns. This scheme could be applied to general integer problems without specific structure. We report computational results on a successful application...
