Abstract:
In this paper we describe several forms of thek-partition problem and give integer programming formulations of each case. The dimension of the associated polytopes and some basic facets are identified. We also give several valid and facet defining inequalities for each of the polytopes.Partial Support from NSF Grants DMS 8606188 and ECS 8800281 is gratefully acknowledged.
