Quadratic Optimization Models for Balancing Preferential Access and Fairness: Formulations and Optimality Conditions

Typically, within facility location problems, fairness is defined in terms of accessibility of users. However, for facilities perceived as undesirable by communities hosting them, fairness between the usage of facilities becomes especially important. Limited research exists on this notion of fairness. To close this gap, we develop a series of optimization models for the allocation … Read more
