 * @brief  constraint handler for cardinality constraints
 * @author Tobias Fischer
 *
 * This constraint handler handles cardinality constraints of the form
 * \f[
 *   |\mbox{supp}(x)| \leq b
 * \f]
 * with integer right-hand side \f$b\f$. Here, \f$|\mbox{supp}(x)|\f$ denotes the number of nonzero entries of the
 * vector \f$x\f$.
 *
 * Note that cardinality constraints generalize special ordered set of type one (SOS1) constraints in which \f$b = 1\f$.
 *
 * The implementation of this constraint handler is based on@n
 * "On the Structure of Linear Programs with Overlapping Cardinality Constraints"@n
 * T. Fischer and M. E. Pfetsch, Tech. rep., 2016

 *  the domain of this variable. A variable can be treated as nonzero, if its corresponding indicator variable 'indvar' is
 *  fixed to 1.0, e.g., by branching.
 *
 *  We perform the following propagation steps:
 *
 *  - if the number 'ntreatnonzeros' is greater than the cardinality value of the constraint, then the current subproblem
 *    is marked as infeasible.
 *  - if the cardinality constraint is saturated, i.e., the number 'ntreatnonzeros' is equal to the cardinality value of
 *    the constraint, then fix all the other variables of the constraint to zero.
 *  - remove the cardinality constraint locally if all variables are either fixed to zero or can be treated as nonzero.
 *  - if a (binary) indicator variable is fixed to zero, then fix the corresponding implied variable to zero.
 *  - if zero is outside of the domain of an implied variable, then fix the corresponding indicator variable to one.

/** enforcement method
 *
 *  We check whether the current solution is feasible. If not, the cardinality constraints can be enforced by different
 *  branching rules:
 *
 *  - Unbalanced branching: Branch on the neighborhood of a single variable \f$i\f$, i.e., in one branch \f$x_i\f$ is
 *    fixed to zero and in the other we modify cardinality constraints \f$|\mbox{supp}(x)| \leq k\f$ with \f$i\in D\f$ to
 *    \f$|\mbox{supp}(x_{D\setminus i}) \leq k-1\f$
 *
 *  - Balanced branching: First, choose a cardinality constraint \f$|\mbox{supp}(x_D) \leq k\f$ that is violated by the
 *    current LP solution. Then, we compute \f$W = \sum_{j=1}^n |x_i|\f$ and \f$w = \sum_{j=1}^n j\, |x_i|\f$. Next,
 *    search for the index \f$r\f$ that satisfies
 *    \f[
 *        r \leq \frac{w}{W} < r+1.
 *    \f]
 *    Choose a number \f$s\f$ with \f$0\leq s < \min\{k, r\}\f$. The branches are then
 *    \f[
 *        |\mbox{supp}(x_{d_1}, \ldots, x_{d_r})| \leq s \qquad \mbox{and}\qquad
 *        |\mbox{supp}(x_{d_{r+1}}, \ldots, x_{d_{n}})| \leq k-s-1,
 *  \f]
 *  where \f$d_1, \ldots, d_n\f$ are the elements of the set \f$D\f$.
 *
 * The branching constraint is chosen by the largest sum of variable values.

 *  bounds < 0 or a lower bounds > 0, the constraint itself is redundant, so the cut is not applied (lower bounds > 0
 *  and upper bounds < 0 are usually detected in presolving or propagation). Infinite bounds and zero are skipped. Thus
 *  \f$\ell_1, \ldots, \ell_n\f$ are all negative, which results in the \f$\leq\f$ inequality.
 *
