On the facets of the simple plant location packing polytope
نویسندگان
چکیده
We introduce new classes of facet-de0ning inequalities for the polytope P associated with the set packing formulation of the simple plant location problem (SPLP) with p plants and d destinations. The inequalities are obtained by identifying subgraphs of the intersection graph G(p; d) of SPLP that are facet-de0ning, and lifting their associated facets if it is necessary. To this end, we 0nd subfamilies of previously known structured families of facet-de0ning graphs, like fans and wheels, inside G(p; d). We also characterize a class of facets of SPLP and summarize the previous polyhedral results on this problem. ? 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Valid inequalities and facets of the capacitated plant location problem
Recently, several successful applications of strong cutting plane methods to combinatorial optimization problems have renewed interest in cutting plane methods, and polyhedral characterizations, of integer programming problems. In this paper, we investigate the polyhedral structure of the capacitated plant location problem. Our purpose is to identify facets and valid inequalities for a wide ran...
متن کاملMATHEMATICAL ENGINEERING TECHNICAL REPORTS The Quadratic Semi-Assignment Polytope
We study a polytope which arises from a mixed integer programming formulation of the quadratic semi-assignment problem. We introduce an isomorphic projection in order to transform the polytope to another essentially equivalent and tractable polytope. As a result, some basic polyhedral properties, such as the dimension, the affine hull, and the trivial facets, are obtained in quite a simple way....
متن کاملSome Results on facets for linear inequality in 0-1 variables
The facet of Knapsack ploytope, i.e. convex hull of 0-1 points satisfying a given linear inequality has been presented in this current paper. Such type of facets plays an important role in set covering set partitioning, matroidal-intersection vertex- packing, generalized assignment and other combinatorial problems. Strong covers for facets of Knapsack ploytope has been developed in the first pa...
متن کاملGeometric shellings of 3-polytopes
A total order of the facets of a polytope is a geometric shelling if there exists a combinatorially equivalent polytope in which the corresponding order of facets becomes a line shelling. The subject of this paper is (geometric) shellings of 3-polytopes. Recently, a graph theoretical characterization of geometric shellings of 3-polytopes were given by Holt & Klee and Mihalisin & Klee. We rst gi...
