We consider integer programs (IP) defined by equations and box constraints, where it is known that determinants in the constraint matrix are one measure of complexity. For example, Artmann et al. showed that an IP can be solved in strongly polynomial time if the constraint matrix is bimodular, that is, the determinants are bounded in absolute value by two. Determinants are also used to bound the $ell_1$-distance between IP solutions and solutions of its linear relaxation. One of the first works to quantify the complexity of IPs with bounded determinants was that of Heller, who identified the maximum number of differing columns in a totally unimodular constraint matrix. So far, each extension of Hellers bound to general determinants has been exponential in the determinants or the number of equations. We provide the first column bound that is polynomial in both values. As a corollary, we give the first $ell_1$-distance bound that is polynomial in the determinants and the number of equations. We also show a tight bound on the number of differing columns in a bimodular constraint matrix; this is the first tight bound since Hellers result. Our analysis reveals combinatorial properties of bimodular IPs that may be of independent interest, in particular in recognition algorithms for IPs with bounded determinants.
We settle the computational complexity of fundamental questions related to multicriteria integer linear programs, when the dimensions of the strategy space and of the outcome space are considered fixed constants. In particular we construct: 1. poly
We introduce a new class of optimization problems called integer Minkowski programs. The formulation of such problems involves finitely many integer variables and nonlinear constraints involving functionals defined on families of discrete or polyhedr
Mixed Integer Programming (MIP) solvers rely on an array of sophisticated heuristics developed with decades of research to solve large-scale MIP instances encountered in practice. Machine learning offers to automatically construct better heuristics f
We show that sparsity constrained optimization problems over low dimensional spaces tend to have a small duality gap. We use the Shapley-Folkman theorem to derive both data-driven bounds on the duality gap, and an efficient primalization procedure to
The paper deals with planar polynomial vector fields. We aim to estimate the number of orbital topological equivalence classes for the fields of degree n. An evident obstacle for this is the second part of Hilberts 16th problem. To circumvent this ob
