Title
Asymptotic Strong Duality for Bounded Integer Programming: A Logarithmic-Exponential Dual Formulation
Abstract
A logarithmic-exponential dual formulation is proposed in this paper for bounded integer programming problems. This new dual formulation possesses an asymptotic strong duality property and guarantees the identification of an optimal solution of the primal problem. These prominent features are achieved by exploring a novel nonlinear Lagrangian function, deriving an asymptotic zero duality gap, investigating the unimodality of the associated dual function and ensuring the primal feasibility of optimal solutions in the dual formulation. One other feature of the logarithmicexponential dual formulation is that no actual dual search is needed when parameters are set above certain threshold-values.
