n-step cycle inequalities: facets for continuous n-mixing set and strong cuts for multi-module capacitated lot-sizing problem

In this paper, we introduce a generalization of the continuous mixing set (which we refer to as the continuous n-mixing set). This set is closely related to the feasible set of the multi-module capacitated lot-sizing (MML) problem with(out) backlogging. We develop new classes of valid inequalities for this set, referred to as n’-step cycle inequalities, … Read more
