Coordinate Optimality Reformulation for Mixed-Integer Convex Programs with Indicators
We consider mixed-integer convex optimization problems in which binary indicators control continuous variables. We introduce the Coordinate Optimality Reformulation (CORe) framework, which augments standard indicator formulations by incorporating coordinate-wise optimality information. The resulting reformulations preserve global optimality while substantially improving branch-and-bound performance, particularly in sparse and structured settings where the coordinate-wise optimality conditions expose exploitable … Read more
