Integer programming approaches for minimum stabbing problems
The problem of finding structures with minimum stabbing number has received considerable attention from researchers. Particularly, [10] study the minimum stabbing number of perfect matchings (mspm), spanning trees (msst) and triangulations (mstr) associated to set of points in the plane. The complexity of the mstr remains open whilst the other two are known to be 𝓝𝓟-hard. This paper presents integer programming (ip) formulations for these three problems, that allowed us to...
