We present a polyhedral study of the complementarity knapsack problem, in which no auxiliary binary variables are introduced, but rather the inequalities are derived in the space of the continuous variables.

The quadratic assignment problem (QAP) is among the hardest combinatorial optimization problems. Some instances of size n >= 30 have remained unsolved for decades. The solution of these problems requires both improvements in mathematical programming algorithms and the utilization of powerful computational platforms. In this article we describe a novel approach to solve QAPs using … Read more
We study the use of binary variables in reformulating general mixed-integer linear programs. We show that binary reformulations result in problems for which almost all the binary variables replacing a general integer variable need to be explored during branching. We also give computational results on the performance of such reformulations in solving the mixed-integer programs, … Read more
