We study Graver test sets for linear two-stage stochastic integer programs and show that test sets can be decomposed into
finitely many building blocks whose number is independent on the number of scenarios of the stochastic program. We present
a finite algorithm to compute the building blocks directly, without prior knowledge of test set vectors. Once computed, building
blocks can be employed to solve the stochastic program by a simple augmentation scheme, again without explicit knowledge of
test set vectors. Finally, we report preliminary computational experience.

The stability number α(G) for a given graph G is the size of a maximum stable set in G. The Lovász theta number provides an upper bound on α(G) and can be computed in polynomial time as the optimal value of the Lovász semidefinite program. In this paper, we show that
restricting the matrix variable in the Lovász semidefinite program to be rank-one and rank-two, respectively, yields a pair
of continuous, nonlinear optimization problems each having the global optimal value α(G). We propose heuristics for obtaining large stable sets in G based on these new formulations and present computational results indicating the effectiveness of the heuristics.

Optimization models and methods have been used extensively in the forest industry. In this paper we describe the general
wood-flow in forestry and a variety of planning problems. These cover planning periods from a fraction of a second to more
than one hundred years. The problems are modelled using linear, integer and nonlinear models. Solution methods used depend
on the required solution time and include for example dynamic programming, LP methods, branch & bound methods, heuristics
and column generation. The importance of modelling and qualitative information is also discussed.

We consider stochastic programming problems with probabilistic constraints involving random variables with discrete distributions.
They can be reformulated as large scale mixed integer programming problems with knapsack constraints. Using specific properties
of stochastic programming problems and bounds on the probability of the union of events we develop new valid inequalities
for these mixed integer programming problems. We also develop methods for lifting these inequalities. These procedures are
used in a general iterative algorithm for solving probabilistically constrained problems. The results are illustrated with
a numerical example.

The purpose of this work is the study of the partition function of a -dimensional lattice directed polymer in a Gaussian random environment being the inverse of temperature). In the low-dimensional cases , we prove that for all , the renormalized partition function converges to 0 and the correlation of two independent configurations does not converge to 0. In the high dimensional case (), a lower tail of has been obtained for small . Furthermore, we express some thermodynamic quantities in terms of the path measure alone.

We introduce a Gentzen-style sequent calculus axiomatization for Basic Predicate Calculus. Our new axiomatization is an improvement
of the previous axiomatizations, in the sense that it has the subformula property. In this system the cut rule is eliminated.

This paper presents a renormalization and homogenization theory for fractional-in-space or in-time diffusion equations with
singular random initial conditions. The spectral representations for the solutions of these equations are provided. Gaussian
and non-Gaussian limiting distributions of the renormalized solutions of these equations are then described in terms of multiple
stochastic integral representations.

Starting from the definition of `amorphous set' in set theory without the axiom of choice, we propose a notion of rank (which
will only make sense for, at most, the class of Dedekind finite sets), which is intended to be an analogue in this situation
of Morley rank in model theory.

This paper addresses the question of decomposing an infinite family of rational polyhedra in an integer fashion. It is shown
that there is a finite subset of this family that generates the entire family. Moreover, an integer analogue of Carathéodory's
theorem carries over to this general setting. The integer decomposition of a family of polyhedra has some applications in
integer and mixed integer programming, including a test set approach to mixed integer programming.

We are given a unique rectangular piece of stock material S, with height H and width W, and a list of m rectangular shapes to be cut from S. Each shape's type i (i = 1, ..., m) is characterized by a height , a width , a profit , and an upper bound ub
i
indicating the maximum number of items of type i which can be cut. We refer to the Two-Dimensional Knapsack (TDK) as the problem of determining a cutting pattern of S maximizing the sum of the profits of the cut items. In particular, we consider the classical variant of TDK in which the
maximum number of cuts allowed to obtain each item is fixed to 2, and we refer to this problem as 2-staged TDK (2TDK). For
the 2TDK problem we present two new Integer Linear Programming models, we discuss their properties, and we compare them with
other formulations in terms of the LP bound they provide. Finally, both models are computationally tested within a standard
branch-and-bound framework on a large set of instances from the literature by reinforcing them with the addition of linear
inequalities to eliminate symmetries.

We present and study a mixed integer programming model that arises as a substructure in many industrial applications. This
model generalizes a number of structured MIP models previously studied, and it provides a relaxation of various capacitated
production planning problems and other fixed charge network flow problems. We analyze the polyhedral structure of the convex
hull of this model, as well as of a strengthened LP relaxation. Among other results, we present valid inequalities that induce
facets of the convex hull under certain conditions. We also discuss how to strengthen these inequalities by using known results
for lifting valid inequalities for 0–1 continuous knapsack problems.

We introduce a new correctness criterion for multiplicative non commutative proof nets which can be considered as the non-commutative
counterpart to the Danos-Regnier criterion for proof nets of linear logic. The main intuition relies on the fact that any
switching for a proof net (obtained by mutilating one premise of each disjunction link) can be naturally viewed as a series-parallel order variety (a cyclic relation) on the conclusions of the proof net.

Preemptive scheduling with rejection 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
We consider the problem of preemptively scheduling a set of n jobs on m (identical, uniformly related, or unrelated) parallel machines. The scheduler may reject a subset of the jobs and thereby
incur job-dependent penalties for each rejected job, and he must construct a schedule for the remaining jobs so as to optimize
the preemptive makespan on the m machines plus the sum of the penalties of the jobs rejected.
We provide a complete classification of these scheduling problems with respect to complexity and approximability. Our main
results are on the variant with an arbitrary number of unrelated machines. This variant is APX-hard, and we design a 1.58-approximation
algorithm for it. All other considered variants are weakly -hard, and we provide fully polynomial time approximation schemes
for them. Finally, we argue that our results for unrelated machines can be carried over to the corresponding preemptive open
shop scheduling problem with rejection.

On the capacitated vehicle routing problem 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We consider the Vehicle Routing Problem, in which a fixed fleet of delivery vehicles of uniform capacity must service known
customer demands for a single commodity from a common depot at minimum transit cost. This difficult combinatorial problem
contains both the Bin Packing Problem and the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) as special cases and conceptually lies at the
intersection of these two well-studied problems. The capacity constraints of the integer programming formulation of this routing
model provide the link between the underlying routing and packing structures. We describe a decomposition-based separation
methodology for the capacity constraints that takes advantage of our ability to solve small instances of the TSP efficiently.
Specifically, when standard procedures fail to separate a candidate point, we attempt to decompose it into a convex combination
of TSP tours; if successful, the tours present in this decomposition are examined for violated capacity constraints; if not,
the Farkas Theorem provides a hyperplane separating the point from the TSP polytope. We present some extensions of this basic
concept and a general framework within which it can be applied to other combinatorial models. Computational results are given
for an implementation within the parallel branch, cut, and price framework SYMPHONY.

The split cuts of Cook, Kannan and Schrijver are general-purpose valid inequalities for integer programming which include a variety of other
well-known cuts as special cases. To detect violated split cuts, one has to solve the associated separation problem. The complexity of split cut separation was recently cited as an open problem by Cornuéjols & Li CL01.
In this paper we settle this question by proving strong 𝒩𝒫-completeness of separation for split cuts. As a by-product we
also show 𝒩𝒫-completeness of separation for several other classes of inequalities, including the MIR-inequalities of Nemhauser and Wolsey and some new inequalities which we call balanced split cuts and binary split cuts. We also strengthen 𝒩𝒫-completeness results of Caprara & Fischetti CF96 (for
-cuts) and Eisenbrand E99 (for Chvátal-Gomory cuts).
To compensate for this bleak picture, we also give a positive result for the Symmetric Travelling Salesman Problem. We show how to separate in polynomial time over a class of split cuts which includes all comb inequalities with a fixed handle.

We extend the definition of solutions of backward stochastic differential equations to the case where the driving process
is a diffusion corresponding to symmetric uniformly elliptic divergence form operator. We show existence and uniqueness of
solutions of such equations under natural assumptions on the data and show its connections with solutions of semilinear parabolic
partial differential equations in Sobolev spaces.

We show that fractional Brownian motions with index in (0,1] satisfy a remarkable property: their squares are infinitely
divisible. We also prove that a large class of Gaussian processes are sharing this property. This property then allows the
construction of two-parameters families of processes having the additivity property of the squared Bessel processes.

In terms of formal deductive systems and multi-dimensional Kripke frames we study logical operations know, informed, common knowledge and common information. Based on [6] we introduce formal axiomatic systems for common information logics and prove that these systems are sound
and complete. Analyzing the common information operation we show that it can be understood as greatest open fixed points for
knowledge formulas. Using obtained results we explore monotonicity, omniscience problem, and inward monotonocity, describe
their connections and give dividing examples. Also we find algorithms recognizing these properties for some particular cases.
