It is well-known that by adding integrality constraints to the semidefinite programming (SDP) relaxation of the max-cut problem, the resulting integer semidefinite program is an exact formulation of the problem. In this paper we show…

Exactly solving multi-objective integer programming (MOIP) problems is often a very time consuming process, especially for large and complex problems. Parallel computing has the potential to significantly reduce the time taken to solve such…

One of the most fundamental ingredients in mixed-integer nonlinear programming solvers is the well-known McCormick relaxation for a product of two variables x and y over a box-constrained domain. The starting point of this paper is the fact…

We present \emph{Greedy Information Projection} (\textsc{GIP}), a principled framework for choosing training examples for large language model fine-tuning. \textsc{GIP} casts selection as maximizing mutual information between a subset of…

The construction of cut trees (also known as Gomory-Hu trees) for a given graph enables the minimum-cut size of the original graph to be obtained for any pair of vertices. Cut trees are a powerful back-end for graph management and mining,…

The block-iterative projections (BIP) method of Aharoni and Censor [Block-iterative projection methods for parallel computation of solutions to convex feasibility problems, Linear Algebra and its Applications 120, (1989), 165--175] is an…

This paper discusses the computational resolution and presents numerical results for solving affine combinations of Heaviside composite optimization problems (abbreviated as A-HSCOPs) by a progressive integer programming (abbreviated as…

We consider the integer points in a unimodular cone K ordered by a lexicographic rule defined by a lattice basis. To each integer point x in K we associate a family of inequalities (lex-cuts) that defines the convex hull of the integer…

We present an exact method, based on an arc-flow formulation with side constraints, for solving bin packing and cutting stock problems --- including multi-constraint variants --- by simply representing all the patterns in a very compact…

We give an $n^{2+o(1)}$-time algorithm for finding $s$-$t$ min-cuts for all pairs of vertices $s$ and $t$ in a simple, undirected graph on $n$ vertices. We do so by constructing a Gomory-Hu tree (or cut equivalent tree) in the same running…

Integer Linear Programs (ILPs) are a flexible and ubiquitous model for discrete optimization problems. Solving ILPs is \textsf{NP-Hard} yet of great practical importance. Super-quadratic quantum speedups for ILPs have been difficult to…

We study the Weighted Min Cut problem in the Adaptive Massively Parallel Computation (AMPC) model. In 2019, Behnezhad et al. [3] introduced the AMPC model as an extension of the Massively Parallel Computation (MPC) model. In the past…

Automated bin-picking is a prerequisite for fully automated manufacturing and warehouses. To successfully pick an item from an unstructured bin the robot needs to first detect possible grasps for the objects, decide on the object to remove…

In this study, we propose an enhancement to the similarity computation mechanism in multi-modal contrastive pretraining frameworks such as CLIP. Prior theoretical research has demonstrated that the optimal similarity metrics between paired…

Generalizing both mixed-integer linear optimization and convex optimization, mixed-integer convex optimization possesses broad modeling power but has seen relatively few advances in general-purpose solvers in recent years. In this paper, we…

Gomory-Hu tree [Gomory and Hu, 1961] is a succinct representation of pairwise minimum cuts in an undirected graph. When the input graph has general edge weights, classic algorithms need at least cubic running time to compute a Gomory-Hu…

A cut tree (or Gomory-Hu tree) of an undirected weighted graph G=(V,E) encodes a minimum s-t-cut for each vertex pair {s,t} \subseteq V and can be iteratively constructed by n-1 maximum flow computations. They solve the multiterminal…

Shifting towards renewable energy sources and reducing carbon emissions necessitate sophisticated energy system planning, optimization, and extension. Energy systems optimization models (ESOMs) often form the basis for political and…

Mixed-integer optimization is at the core of many online decision-making systems that demand frequent updates of decisions in real time. However, due to their combinatorial nature, mixed-integer linear programs (MILPs) can be difficult to…

This paper presents a comprehensive theoretical analysis of six distinct Mixed-Integer Programming (MIP) formulations for preventive Generator Maintenance Scheduling (GMS), a critical problem for ensuring the reliability and efficiency of…
