Using Functional Programming to recognize Named Structure in an Optimization Problem: Application to Pooling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Branch-and-cut optimization solvers typically apply generic algorithms, e.g., cutting planes or primal heuristics, to expedite performance for many mathematical optimization problems.

Intersection Cuts for Factorable MINLP [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Given a factorable function f, we propose a procedure that constructs a concave underestimator of f that is tight at a given point. These underestimators can be used to generate intersection cuts. A peculiarity of these underestimators is that they do not rely on a bounded domain.
