A ride time-oriented scheduling algorithm for dial-a-ride problems

Nikolaos Geroliminis, Claudia Bongiovanni, Mor Kaspi

This paper offers a new algorithm to efficiently optimize scheduling decisions for dial-a-ride problems (DARPs), including problem variants considering electric and autonomous vehicles (e-ADARPs). The scheduling heuristic, based on linear programming theor ...

Learning to Remove Cuts in Integer Linear Programming

Volkan Cevher, Grigorios Chrysos, Efstratios Panteleimon Skoulakis

Cutting plane methods are a fundamental approach for solving integer linear programs (ILPs). In each iteration of such methods, additional linear constraints (cuts) are introduced to the constraint set with the aim of excluding the previous fractional opti ...

Six-dimensional sphere packing and linear programming

Maryna Viazovska, Matthew De Courcy-Ireland, Maria Margarethe Dostert

We prove that the Cohn-Elkies linear programming bound for sphere packing is not sharp in dimension 6. The proof uses duality and optimization over a space of modular forms, generalizing a construction of Cohn- Triantafillou [Math. Comp. 91 (2021), pp. 491 ...

HYPERBOLA METHOD ON TORIC VARIETIES

Marta Pieropan

We develop a very general version of the hyperbola method which extends the known method by Blomer and Brudern for products of projective spaces to complete smooth split toric varieties. We use it to count Campana points of bounded log-anticanonical height ...

Results on Sparse Integer Programming and Geometric Independent Sets

Jana Tabea Cslovjecsek

An integer linear program is a problem of the form max{c^T x : Ax=b, x >= 0, x integer}, where A is in Z^(n x m), b in Z^m, and c in Z^n. Solving an integer linear program is NP-hard in general, but there are several assumptions for which it becomes fixed ...

Approximation Algorithms for Allocation and Network Design

Etienne Michel François Bamas

In this thesis, we give new approximation algorithms for some NP-hard problems arising in resource allocation and network design. As a resource allocation problem, we study the Santa Claus problem (also known as the MaxMin Fair Allocation problem) in which ...

A Spatial Branch and Bound Algorithm for Continuous Pricing with Advanced Discrete Choice Demand Modeling

Michel Bierlaire

In this paper, we present a spatial branch and bound algorithm to tackle the continuous pricing problem, where demand is captured by an advanced discrete choice model (DCM). Advanced DCMs, like mixed logit or latent class models, are capable of modeling de ...
