We give a new class of outer bounds on the marginal polytope, and propose a cutting-plane algorithm for efficiently optimizing over these constraints. When combined with a concav...
A simulation model was developed to predict with a certain degree of probability the optimal escape routs from the coastal areas of the Rio Grand Valley. Along with that, the mode...
Grothendieck inequalities are fundamental inequalities which are frequently used in many areas of mathematics and computer science. They can be interpreted as upper bounds for the ...
In this article we study a broad class of integer programming problems in variable dimension. We show that these so-termed n-fold integer programming problems are polynomial time ...
This is a summary of the main results presented in the author's PhD thesis, supervised by D. Conforti and P. Beraldi and defended on March 2005. The thesis, written in English...
