We review strong inequalities for fundamental knapsack relaxations of (mixed) integer programs. These relaxations are the
0-1 knapsack set, the mixed 0-1 knapsack set, the integer knapsack set, and the mixed integer knapsack set. Our aim is to
give a unified presentation of the inequalities based on covers and packs and highlight the connections among them. The focus
of the paper is on recent research on the use of superadditive functions for the analysis of knapsack polyhedra.
We also present some new results on integer knapsacks. In particular, we give an integer version of the cover inequalities
and describe a necessary and sufficient facet condition for them. This condition generalizes the well-known facet condition
of minimality of covers for 0-1 knapsacks.

We shall consider higher power residue codes over the ring Z4. We will briefly introduce these codes over Z4 and then we will find a new construction for the Leech lattice. A similar construction is used to construct some of the other lattices of rank 24. 相似文献
For a compact Hausdorff space and a Montel Hausdorff locally convex space , let being the uniform topology. We determine the necessary and sufficient conditions for an equicontinuous to be -compact. Special results are obtained when is an -space or a -Stonian space.
We study the mixed 0-1 knapsack polytope, which is defined by a single knapsack constraint that contains 0-1 and bounded continuous variables. We develop a lifting theory for the continuous variables. In particular, we present a pseudo-polynomial algorithm for the sequential lifting of the continuous variables and we discuss its practical use.This research was supported by NSF grants DMI-0100020 and DMI-0121495Mathematics Subject Classification (2000): 90C11, 90C27 相似文献
There is an optimal way to differentiate measures when given a consistent choice of where zero limits must occur. The appropriate differentiation basis is formed following the pattern of an earlier construction by the authors of an optimal approach system for producing boundary limits in potential theory. Applications include the existence of Lebesgue points, approximate continuity, and liftings for the space of bounded measurable functions - all aspects of the fact that for every point outside a set of measure , a given integrable function has small variation on a set that is ``big' near the point. This fact is illuminated here by the replacement of each measurable set with the collection of points where the set is ``big', using a classical base operator. Properties of such operators and of the topologies they generate, e.g., the density and fine topologies, are recalled and extended along the way. Topological considerations are simplified using an extension of base operators from algebras of sets on which they are initially defined to the full power set of the underlying space.
