Complexity results for the gap inequalities for the max‐cut problem
2012,
We prove several complexity results about the gap inequalities for the max‐cut...
Model of transfer tax on transboundary water pollution in China’s river basin
2012,
Transboundary water pollution is a persistent problem in China. This study proposes a...
Representing quadratically constrained quadratic programs as generalized copositive programs
2012,
We show that any (nonconvex) quadratically constrained quadratic program (QCQP) can be...
On the global stability of a peer‐to‐peer network model
2012,
In this paper, we analyze the stability properties of a system of ordinary...
Speed scaling for stretch plus energy
2012,
We consider speed scaling problems where the objective is to minimize a linear...
On Bellman’s principle with inequality constraints
2012,
We consider an example by Haviv (1996) of a constrained Markov decision process that,...
On a basic definition of returns to scale
2012,
A concept that has sparked considerable interest in DEA is that of returns to scale...
Analysis of a two‐party supply chain with random disruptions
2012,
We study a continuous‐review inventory problem of a two‐echelon supply...
Sell or Hold: A simple two‐stage stochastic combinatorial optimization problem
2012,
The sell or hold problem (SHP) is to sell k out of n indivisible assets over two...
Price of anarchy for supply chains with partial positive externalities
2012,
We consider the impact of partial positive externalities (imperfect complementarity)...
Impact of discounting and competition on benefit of decentralization with strategic customers
2012,
With strategic customers, we find that a decentralized channel may have higher profit...

In this paper, we show that every convex semi‐infinite vector optimization...
The pairwise egalitarian solution for the assignment game
2012,
In this note we consider the pairwise egalitarian solution...
A stochastic program based lower bound for assemble‐to‐order inventory systems
2012,

Dynamic inventory and pricing policy in a capacitated stochastic inventory system with fixed ordering cost
2012,
We study a dynamic inventory and pricing optimization problem in a periodic review...
Does inventory pooling improve customer service levels?
2012,
We study the risk pooling problem in a two‐location inventory system, and...
An integer linear programming approach for bilinear integer programming
2012,
We introduce a new Integer Linear Programming (ILP) approach for solving Integer...
Asymptotical good behavior on inequalities with completely approximate K–T concept
2012,

Market price‐based convex risk measures: A distribution‐free optimization approach
2012,
In Cont (2006) , a convex risk measure was proposed to measure the impact of...
Hyperbolic smoothing and penalty techniques applied to molecular structure determination
2011,
This work considers the problem of estimating the relative positions of all atoms of a...
An improved monotone algorithm for scheduling related machines with precedence constraints
