An Outer-Inner Approximation for Separable Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Programs [PDF]
INFORMS Journal on Computing, 2014 A common structure in convex mixed-integer nonlinear programs (MINLPs) is separable nonlinear functions. In the presence of such structures, we propose three improvements to the outer approximation algorithms. The first improvement is a simple extended formulation, the second is a refined outer approximation, and the third is a heuristic inner ...

A Survey on Mixed-Integer Programming Techniques in Bilevel Optimization
EURO Journal on Computational Optimization, 2021 Bilevel optimization is a field of mathematical programming in which some variables are constrained to be the solution of another optimization problem. As a consequence, bilevel optimization is able to model hierarchical decision processes.

On the interplay of Mixed Integer Linear, Mixed Integer Nonlinear and Constraint Programming [PDF]
, 2016 In this thesis we study selected topics in the field of Mixed Integer Programming (MIP), in particular Mixed Integer Linear and Nonlinear Programming (MI(N)LP). We set a focus on the influences of Constraint Programming (CP). First, we analyze Mathematical Programming approaches to water network optimization, a set of challenging optimization ...
