چکیده

Recently, several programs for automated analysis of the running time of splitting algorithms were implemented. In this paper we provide the details of implementation of the program presented by Fedin and Kulikov and indicate several ways of its improvement. Supported in part by INTAS (grants 04-77-7173 and 05-109-5352), RFBR (grants 05-01-00932, 06-01-00502, and 06-01-00584), and RAS Program for Fundamental Research (“Modern Problems of Theoretical Mathematics”).

Automated Proofs of Time Lower Bounds

A fertile area of recent research has demonstrated concrete polynomial time lower bounds for solving natural hard problems on restricted computational models. Among these problems are Satisfiability, Vertex Cover, Hamilton Path, MOD6-SAT, Majority-of-Majority-SAT, and Tautologies, to name a few. These lower bound proofs all follow a certain diagonalization-based proof-by-contradiction strategy....

A Non-linear Integer Bi-level Programming Model for Competitive Facility Location of Distribution Centers

The facility location problem is a strategic decision-making for a supply chain, which determines the profitability and sustainability of its components. This paper deals with a scenario where two supply chains, consisting of a producer, a number of distribution centers and several retailers provided with similar products, compete to maintain their market shares by opening new distribution cent...

Automated Generation of Search Tree Algorithms for Graph Modification Problems

We present a (seemingly first) framework for an automated generation of exact search tree algorithms for NP-hard problems. The purpose of our approach is two-fold—rapid development and improved upper bounds. Many search tree algorithms for various problems in the literature are based on complicated case distinctions. Our approach may lead to a much simpler process of developing and analyzing th...

A Complementarity-based Partitioning and Disjunctive Cut Algorithm for Mathematical Programming Problems with Equilibrium Constraints

In this paper a branch-and-bound algorithm is proposed for finding a global minimum to a Mathematical Programming Problem with Complementarity (or Equilibrium) Constraints (MPECs), which incorporates disjunctive cuts for computing lower bounds and employs a Complementarity Active-Set Algorithm for computing upper bounds. Computational results for solving MPECs associated with Bilivel Problems, ...

Automated Proofs in Geometry : Computing Upper Bounds for the Heilbronn Problem for Triangles

The Heilbronn problem for triangle[Wei] is defined as follows: place N points inside a triangle of unit area, so as to maximize the area of the smallest triangle obtained by choosing 3 points among N. Several authors worked towards finding lower bounds or optimal configurations of points. In this paper, we propose upper bounds for those problems, obtained by a method of automated theorem proving.
