Detailed Description

all variables full strong LP branching rule

Author
Tobias Achterberg

The all variables full strong branching rule applies strong branching to every non-fixed variable at the current node of the branch-and-bound search. The rule selects the candidate which will cause the highest gain of the dual bound in the created sub-tree among all branching variables.

For calculating the gain, a look-ahead is performed by solving the child node LPs which will result from branching on a variable.

For a more mathematical description and a comparison between the strong branching rule and other branching rules in SCIP, we refer to

Selects a variable from a set of candidates by strong branching

Returns
SCIP_OKAY is returned if everything worked. Otherwise a suitable error code is passed. See SCIP_RETCODE for a complete list of error codes.
Note
The variables in the lpcands array must have a fractional value in the current LP solution
