Detailed Description

reduced cost strengthening using root node reduced costs and the cutoff bound

Author
Tobias Achterberg
Stefan Heinz

This propagator uses the root reduced cost to (globally) propagate against the cutoff bound. The propagator checks if the variables with non-zero root reduced cost can exceed the cutoff bound. If this is the case the corresponding bound can be tightened.

The propagate is performed during the search any time a new cutoff bound (primal solution) is found.

◆ DEFAULT_FORCE

#define DEFAULT_FORCE   FALSE

should the propagator be forced even if active pricer are present? Note that the reductions are always valid, but installing an upper bound on priced variables may lead to problems in pricing (existing variables at their upper bound may be priced again since they may have negative reduced costs)
