 * \f]
 * for \f$n > 1.0\f$ a rational number, \f$a\f$ and \f$c\f$ arbitrary, and \f$x\f$ and \f$z\f$ variables.
 * Note that \f$x\f$ can have \f$-a\f$ in the interior of its domain.
 *
 * Constraints are enforced by separation, domain propagation, and spatial branching.
 *
 * Cuts that separate on the convex hull of the graph of \f$\textrm{sign}(x+a) |x+a|^n\f$ are generated as long as they separate the relaxation solution.
 * Otherwise, spatial branching on \f$x\f$ is applied.
 *
 * Further, domain propagation is implemented to propagate bound changes on \f$x\f$ onto \f$z\f$, and vice versa, and
 * repropagation is implemented to allow for conflict analysis.
 * During presolve, a pairwise comparison of absolute power constraints may allow to fix or aggregate some variables.
