Symmetry breaking is a crucial technique in modern combinatorial solving, but it is difficult to be sure it is implemented correctly. The most successful approach to deal with bugs is to make solvers certifying, so that they output not just…

This paper focuses on integer linear programs where solutions are binary matrices, and the corresponding symmetry group is the set of all column permutations. Orbitopal fixing, as introduced by Kaibel et al., is a technique designed to…
