CP methods for scheduling and routing with time-dependent task costs
A particularly difficult class of scheduling and routing problems involves an objective that is a sum of time-varying action costs, which increases the size and complexity of such problems. Solve-and-improve approaches, which find an initial solution for

A case study of Consistent Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows
We develop a heuristic for the Consistent Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows (ConVRPTW), which is motivated by a real-world application at a food company's distribution center.

Trade-off between robustness and cost for a storage loading problem: rule-based scenario generation
Integrating uncertainties into the optimization process is crucial to obtain solutions suitable for practical needs. In particular, the considered uncertainty set has a huge impact on the quality of the computed solutions.

Network design to anticipate selfish evacuation routing
When a disaster occurs the population of the endangered zone must sometimes be evacuated as fast as possible. In this case, a large number of vehicles move through a street network to reach safe areas.

On the second boundary value problem for Monge-Ampere type equations and geometric optics
In this paper, we prove the existence of classical solutions to second boundary value prob- lems for generated prescribed Jacobian equations, as recently developed by the second author, thereby obtaining extensions of classical solvability of optimal ...

A multi-material transport problem and its convex relaxation via rectifiable $G$-currents
In this paper we study a variant of the branched transportation problem, that we call multi-material transport problem. This is a transportation problem, where distinct commodities are transported simultaneously along a network.
