It is a notorious open question whether integer programs (IPs), with an integer coefficient matrix $M$ whose subdeterminants are all bounded by a constant $\Delta$ in absolute value, can be solved in polynomial time. We answer this question…
We give a strongly polynomial-time algorithm for integer linear programs defined by integer coefficient matrices whose subdeterminants are bounded by a constant and that contain at most two nonzero entries in each row. The core of our…
There has been significant work recently on integer programs (IPs) $\min\{c^\top x \colon Ax\leq b,\,x\in \mathbb{Z}^n\}$ with a constraint marix $A$ with bounded subdeterminants. This is motivated by a well-known conjecture claiming that,…
We study integer-valued matrices with bounded determinants. Such matrices appear in the theory of integer programs (IP) with bounded determinants. For example, Artmann et al. showed that an IP can be solved in strongly polynomial time if…
A long-standing open question in Integer Programming is whether integer programs with constraint matrices with bounded subdeterminants are efficiently solvable. An important special case thereof are congruency-constrained integer programs…
The classic algorithm [Papadimitriou, J.ACM '81] for IPs has a running time $n^{O(m)}(m\cdot\max\{\Delta,\|\textbf{b}\|_{\infty}\})^{O(m^2)}$, where $m$ is the number of constraints, $n$ is the number of variables, and $\Delta$ and…
This paper introduces a framework to study discrete optimization problems which are parametric in the following sense: their constraint matrices correspond to matrices over the ring $\mathbb{Z}[x]$ of polynomials in one variable. We…
In the classic Integer Programming (IP) problem, the objective is to decide whether, for a given $m \times n$ matrix $A$ and an $m$-vector $b=(b_1,\dots, b_m)$, there is a non-negative integer $n$-vector $x$ such that $Ax=b$. Solving (IP)…
An integer program (IP) with a finite number of feasible solutions may have an unbounded linear programming relaxation if it contains irrational parameters, due to implicit constraints enforced by the irrational numbers. We show that those…
Let $A$ be an $(m \times n)$ integral matrix, and let $P=\{ x : A x \leq b\}$ be an $n$-dimensional polytope. The width of $P$ is defined as $ w(P)=min\{ x\in \mathbb{Z}^n\setminus\{0\} :\: max_{x \in P} x^\top u - min_{x \in P} x^\top v…
Let $A \in \mathbb{Z}^{m \times n}$ be an integral matrix and $a$, $b$, $c \in \mathbb{Z}$ satisfy $a \geq b \geq c \geq 0$. The question is to recognize whether $A$ is $\{a,b,c\}$-modular, i.e., whether the set of $n \times n$…
An integer matrix $\mathbf{A}$ is $\Delta$-modular if the determinant of each $\text{rank}(\mathbf{A}) \times \text{rank}(\mathbf{A})$ submatrix of $\mathbf{A}$ has absolute value at most $\Delta$. The study of $\Delta$-modular matrices…
Motivated by complexity questions in integer programming, this paper aims to contribute to the understanding of combinatorial properties of integer matrices of row rank $r$ and with bounded subdeterminants. In particular, we study the…
We show that one can enumerate the vertices of the convex hull of integer points in polytopes whose constraint matrices have bounded and nonzero subdeterminants, in time polynomial in the dimension and encoding size of the polytope. This…
The intention of this note is two-fold. First, we study integer optimization problems in standard form defined by $A \in\mathbb{Z}^{m\times{}n}$ and present an algorithm to solve such problems in polynomial-time provided that both the…
We classify, according to their computational complexity, integer optimization problems whose constraints and objective functions are polynomials with integer coefficients and the number of variables is fixed. For the optimization of an…
We show that any submodular minimization (SM) problem defined on a linear constraint set with constraints having up to two variables per inequality, are 2-approximable in polynomial time. If the constraints are monotone (the two variables…
