Recently Aardal et al. have successfully solved some small difficult equality constrained integer programs by using basis reduction to reformulate the problems as inequality constrained integer programs in a different space. Here we adapt theirmethod to solve integer programs that are larger,...

In this survey we attempt to give a unified presentation of a variety of results on the lifting of valid inequalities, as well as a standard procedure combining mixed integer rounding with lifting for the development of strong valid inequalities for knapsack and single node flow sets. Our hope...

A central result in the theory of integer optimization states that a system of linear diophantine equations Ax = b has no integral solution if and only if there exists a vector in the dual lattice, y T A integral such that y T b is fractional. We extend this result to systems that both have...

A simple relaxation of two rows of a simplex tableau is a mixed integer set consisting of two equations with two free integer variables and non-negative continuous variables. Recently Andersen et al. [2] and Cornu´ejols and Margot [13] showed that the facet-defining inequalities of this set are...
