New facets and facet-generating procedures for the orientation model for vertex coloring problems

In this work, we study the \emph{orientation model} for vertex coloring problems with the aim of finding partial descriptions of the associated polytopes. We present new families of valid inequalities, most of them supported by paths of the input graph. We develop facet-generating procedures for the associated polytopes, which we denominate \emph{path-lifting procedures}. Given a … Read more
