For the one dimensional infinite group relaxation, we construct a sequence of extreme valid functions that are piecewise linear and such that for every natural number $k\geq 2$, there is a function in the sequence with $k$ slopes. This…
In this self-contained paper, we present a theory of the piecewise linear minimal valid functions for the 1-row Gomory-Johnson infinite group problem. The non-extreme minimal valid functions are those that admit effective perturbations. We…
We give a variant of Basu-Hildebrand-Molinaro's approximation theorem for continuous minimal valid functions for Gomory-Johnson's infinite group problem by piecewise linear two-slope extreme functions [Minimal cut-generating functions are…
In a recent paper, Basu, Hildebrand, and Molinaro established that the set of continuous minimal functions for the 1-dimensional Gomory-Johnson infinite group relaxation possesses a dense subset of extreme functions. The $n$-dimensional…
We give an algorithm for testing the extremality of minimal valid functions for Gomory and Johnson's infinite group problem that are piecewise linear (possibly discontinuous) with rational breakpoints. This is the first set of necessary and…
This is a survey on the infinite group problem, an infinite-dimensional relaxation of integer linear optimization problems introduced by Ralph Gomory and Ellis Johnson in their groundbreaking papers titled "Some continuous functions related…
We construct a two-sided discontinuous piecewise linear minimal valid function for the 1-row Gomory--Johnson model which is not extreme, but which is not a convex combination of other piecewise linear minimal valid functions. The new…
Relaxation theorems which apply to one, two and three-dimensional nonlinear elasticity are proved. We take into account the fact an infinite amount of energy is required to compress a finite line, surface or volume into zero line, surface…
We consider Gomory and Johnson's infinite group model with a single row. Valid inequalities for this model are expressed by valid functions and it has been recently shown that any valid function is dominated by some nonnegative valid…
In this paper, we study lower bounds on the K-theory of the maximal $C^*$-algebra of a discrete group based on the amount of torsion it contains. We call this the finite part of the operator K-theory and give a lower bound that is valid for…
We prove an infinite Ramsey theorem for noncommutative graphs realized as unital self-adjoint subspaces of linear operators acting on an infinite dimensional Hilbert space. Specifically, we prove that if V is such a subspace, then provided…
We investigate three competing notions that generalize the notion of a facet of finite-dimensional polyhedra to the infinite-dimensional Gomory-Johnson model. These notions were known to coincide for continuous piecewise linear functions…
We give an algorithm for testing the extremality of a large class of minimal valid functions for the two-dimensional infinite group problem.
For every natural number k we prove a decomposition theorem for bounded measurable functions on compact abelian groups into a structured part, a quasi random part and a small error term. In this theorem quasi randomness is measured with the…
In this note we announce the availability of an electronic compendium of extreme functions for Gomory--Johnson's infinite group problem. These functions serve as the strongest cut-generating functions for integer linear optimization…
We first prove that the Whitehead group of a torsion-free virtually solvable linear group vanishes. Next we make a reduction of the fibered isomorphism conjecture from virtually solvable groups to a class of virtually solvable Q-linear…
In Mathematical Programming 2003, Gomory and Johnson conjecture that the facets of the infinite group problem are always generated by piecewise linear functions. In this paper we give an example showing that the Gomory-Johnson conjecture is…
We show that, if $\Gamma$ is a point group of $\mathbb{R}^{k+1}$ of order two for some $k\geq 2$ and $\mathcal S$ is a $k$-pseudomanifold which has a free automorphism of order two, then either $\mathcal S$ has a $\Gamma$-symmetric…
In this paper, we consider a planar dynamical system with a piecewise linear function containing an arbitrary number (but finite) of dropping sections and approximating some continuous nonlinear function. Studying all possible local and…
This is the first in a sequence of papers that will develop the theory of automorphisms of nonsolvable finite groups. The sequence will culminate in a new proof of McBride's Nonsolvable Signalizer Functor Theorem, which is one of the…
