Linear Programs With an Additional Separable Concave Constraint

Pages 155-174 | Published online: 15 Jun 2010
 

Abstract

In this paper, we develop two algorithms for globally optimizing a special class of linear programs with an additional concave constraint. We assume that the concave constraint is defined by a separable concave function. Exploiting this special structure, we apply Falk-Soland's branch-and-bound algorithm for concave minimization in both direct and indirect manners. In the direct application, we solve the problem alternating local search and branch-and-bound. In the indirect application, we carry out the bounding operation using a parametric right-hand-side simplex algorithm.
