Size constrained graph partitioning polytope. Part I: Dimension and trivial facets

We consider the problem of clustering a set of items into subsets whose sizes are bounded from above and below. We formulate the problem as a graph partitioning problem and propose an integer programming model for solving it. This formulation generalizes several well-known graph partitioning problems from the literature like the clique partitioning problem, the … Read more
