Note on Minkowski Summation and Unimodularity in Discrete Convex Analysis

Kazuo Murota, Akihisa Tamura

This short note gives an elementary alternative proof for a theorem of Danilov and Koshevoy on Minkowski summation and unimodularity in discrete convex analysis. It is intended to…

Decomposition of an Integrally Convex Set into a Minkowski Sum of Bounded and Conic Integrally Convex Sets

Kazuo Murota, Akihisa Tamura

Every polyhedron can be decomposed into a Minkowski sum (or vector sum) of a bounded polyhedron and a polyhedral cone. This paper establishes similar statements for some classes of…

Shapley-Folkman-type Theorem for Integrally Convex Sets

Kazuo Murota, Akihisa Tamura

The Shapley-Folkman theorem is a statement about the Minkowski sum of (non-convex) sets, expressing the closeness of the Minkowski sum to convexity in a quantitative manner. This p…

Discrete Fenchel Duality for a Pair of Integrally Convex and Separable Convex Functions

Kazuo Murota, Akihisa Tamura

Discrete Fenchel duality is one of the central issues in discrete convex analysis. The Fenchel-type min-max theorem for a pair of integer-valued M-natural-convex functions generali…

Scaling, Proximity, and Optimization of Integrally Convex Functions

Satoko Moriguchi, Kazuo Murota, Akihisa Tamura +1

In discrete convex analysis, the scaling and proximity properties for the class of L-convex functions were established more than a decade ago and have been used to desig…
