Given an iterated function system of affine dilations with fixed points the vertices of a regular polygon, we characterize which points in the limit set lie on the boundary of its convex hull.
We prove tight upper bounds for the number of vertices of a simple polygon that is the union or the intersection of two simple polygons with given numbers of convex and concave vertices. The similar question on graphs of the lower (or…
In this paper, we study the strength of convex relaxations obtained by convexification of aggregation of constraints for a set $S$ described by two bilinear bipartite equalities. Aggregation is the process of rescaling the original…
The main purpose of this paper is to report on the state of the art of computing integer hulls and their facets as well as counting lattice points in convex polytopes. Using the polymake system we explore various algorithms and…
Cutting planes are a key ingredient to successfully solve mixed-integer linear programs. For specific problems, their strength is often theoretically assessed by showing that they are facet-defining for the corresponding mixed-integer hull.…
This is a survey on the computational complexity of nonlinear mixed-integer optimization. It highlights a selection of important topics, ranging from incomputability results that arise from number theory and logic, to recently obtained…
Computing the closed convex envelope or biconjugate is the core operation that bridges the domain of nonconvex with convex analysis. We focus here on computing the conjugate of a bivariate piecewise quadratic function defined over a…
Modeling time-harmonic Maxwell problems in heterogeneous media presents significant mathematical and computational challenges. Due to the inherent non-elliptic structure and non-coercive nature of Maxwell equations, conventional methods…
When using the convex hull approach in the boundary modeling process, Model-Based Calibration (MBC) software suites -- such as Model-Based Calibration Toolbox from MathWorks -- can be computationally intensive depending on the amount of…
Bilinear models has been shown to achieve impressive performance on a wide range of visual tasks, such as semantic segmentation, fine grained recognition and face recognition. However, bilinear features are high dimensional, typically on…
Covering numbers of convex bodies based on homothetical copies and related illumination numbers are well-known in combinatorial geometry and, for example, related to Hadwiger's famous covering problem. Similar numbers can be defined by…
The convex hull of a set of points, $C$, serves to expose extremal properties of $C$ and can help identify elements in $C$ of high interest. For many problems, particularly in the presence of noise, the true vertex set (and facets) may be…
This paper presents an alternate choice of computing the convex hulls (CHs) for planar point sets. We firstly discard the interior points and then sort the remaining vertices by x- / y- coordinates separately, and later create a group…
Motivated by previous efforts toward mathematically analyzing the treatment of monomials in spatial branch-and-bound, we study the convex hull of the graph of a simple monomial on a nonnegative box domain in arbitrary dimension, where at…
We introduce a notion of convex hull and polytope into adele space. This allows to consider adelic triangulations which, in particular, lead to an adelic blichfeldt-type inequality, complementing former results.
We consider the disjoint bilinear programming problem in which one of the disjoint subsets has the structure of an acute-angled polytope. An optimality criterion for such a problem is formulated and proved, and based on this, a polynomial…
In many applications involving binary variables, only pairwise dependence measures, such as correlations, are available. However, for multi-way tables involving more than two variables, these quantities do not uniquely determine the joint…
We prove that the rank-one convex hull of finitely many $2\times 2$ triangular matrices is a semialgebraic set, defined by linear and quadratic polynomials. We present explicit constructions for five-point configurations and offer evidence…
We study MINLO (mixed-integer nonlinear optimization) formulations of the disjunction $x\in\{0\}\cup[l,u]$, where $z$ is a binary indicatorof $x\in[l,u]$ ($u> \ell > 0$), and $y$ "captures" $f(x)$, which is assumed to be convex on its…
This paper details an algorithm for unfolding a class of convex polyhedra, where each polyhedron in the class consists of a convex cap over a rectangular base, with several restrictions: the cap's faces are quadrilaterals, with vertices…
