New Turnpike Theorems for the Unbounded Knapsack Problem
We develop sharp bounds on turnpike theorems for the unbounded knapsack problem. Turnpike theorems specify when it is optimal to load at least one unit of the best item (i.e., the one with the highest “bang-for-buck” ratio) and, thus can be used for problem preprocessing. The successive application of the turnpike theorems can drastically reduce … Read more
