Deriving the convex hull of a polynomial partitioning set through lifting and projection
Relaxations of the bilinear term, $x_1x_2=x_3$, play a central role in constructing relaxations of factorable functions. This is because they can be used directly to relax products of functions with known relaxations. In this paper, we provide a compact, closed-form description of the convex hull of this and other more general bivariate monomial terms (which … Read more
