On a class of strong valid inequalities for the connected matching polytope

Phillippe Samer

We identify a family of nontrivial facets of the connected matching polytope of a graph , that is, the convex hull of incidence vectors of matchings in whose c…

Polyhedral approach to weighted connected matchings in general graphs

Phillippe Samer, Phablo F. S. Moura

A connected matching in a graph G consists of a set of pairwise disjoint edges whose covered vertices induce a connected subgraph of G. While finding a connected matching of maximu…

Polyhedral results and stronger Lagrangean bounds for stable spanning trees

Phillippe Samer, Dag Haugland

Given a graph and a set of unordered pairs of edges regarded as being in conflict, a stable spanning tree in is a set of edges inducing a spanning tree in …

The matching relaxation for a class of generalized set partitioning problems

Phillippe Samer, Evellyn Cavalcante, Sebastián Urrutia +1

This paper introduces a discrete relaxation for the class of combinatorial optimization problems which can be described by a set partitioning formulation under packing constraints.…

An effective decomposition approach and heuristics to generate spanning trees with a small number of branch vertices

Rafael A. Melo, Phillippe Samer, Sebastián Urrutia

Given a graph , the minimum branch vertices problem consists in finding a spanning tree of minimizing the number of vertices with degree greater than two. W…

A branch and cut algorithm for minimum spanning trees under conflict constraints

Phillippe Samer, Sebastián Urrutia

We study approaches for the exact solution of the \NP--hard minimum spanning tree problem under conflict constraints. Given a graph and a set of con…
