SOS1 constraints require that at most one of a given set of variables is nonzero. In this article, we investigate a branch-and-cut algorithm to solve linear programs with SOS1 constraints. We focus on the case in which the SOS1 constraints overlap. The corresponding conflict graph can algorithmically be exploited, for instance, for improved branching rules, preprocessing, primal heuristics, and cutting planes. In an extensive computational study, we evaluate the components of our implementation…

An enhanced logical benders approach for linear programs with complementarity constraints

This work develops a novel interpretation of the logical Benders method as a reversed branch-and-bound search, where the whole exploration procedure starts from the leaf nodes in an enumeration tree, and presents an optimization-based sparsification process which makes the cut generation more efficient.
