variable upper and lower bound propagator

This propagator uses global bound information provided by SCIP to deduce global and local bound changes. It can take into account

  • implications (bound change following from specific value of a binary variable)
  • cliques (set of binary variables, each with a corresponding value, of which at most one variable can get the value)
  • variable lower/upper bounds (bounds of arbitrary variables that depend linearly on the value of another variable)

The propagator does not look at a variable in whole, but at one point in time only handles one specific bound (lower or upper) of a variable and deduces changes for lower or upper bounds of other variables. The concept is as follows:

1) Extract variable bound data

Implications and cliques are stored in a way such that given a variable and its new value, we can access all bound changes that can be deduced from setting the variable to that value. However, for variable bounds, this currently does not hold, they are only stored in the other direction, i.e. for a bound of a given variable, we have a list of all other bounds of variables that directly influence the bound of the given variable and a linear function describing how they do this. For the propagation, we need the other direction, thus we store it in the propagator data when the branch-and-bound solving process is about to begin.

2) Topological sorting of bounds of variable

We compute a topological order of the bounds of variables. This is needed to define an order in which we will regard bounds of variables in the propagation process in order to avoid unneccessarily regarding the same variable bound multiple times because it was changed in the meantime when propagating another bound of a variable. Therefore, we implictly regard a directed graph, in which each node corresponds to a bound of a variable and there exists a directed edge from one node to another, if the bound corresponding to the former node influences the bound corresponding to the latter node. This is done by iteratively running a DFS until all nodes were visited. Note that there might be cycles in the graph, which are randomly broken, so the order is only almost topological.

3) Collecting bound changes

For each bound of a variable, which can trigger bound changes of other variables, the propagator catches all events informing about a global change of the bound or a local tightening of the bound. The event handler then adds the bound of the variable to a priority queue, with the key in the priority queue corresponding to the position of the bound in the topological sort.

4) Propagating Bounds

As long as there are bounds contained in the priority queue, the propagator pops one bound from the queue, which is the one most at the beginning of the topological sort, so it should not be influenced by propagating other bounds currently contained in the queue. Starting at this bound, all implication, clique, and variable bound information is used to deduce tigther bounds for other variables and change the bounds, if a tighter one is found. These bound changes trigger an event that will lead to adding the corresponding bound to the priority queue, if it is not contained, yet. The process is iterated until the priority queue contains no more bounds.

Additionally, the propagator analyzes the conflict/clique graph during presolving. It uses Tarjan's algorithm to search for strongly connected components, for each of which all variables can be aggregated to one. Additionally, it may detect invalid assignments of binary variables and fix the variable to the only possible value left.

Propagator defines

The propagator works on indices representing a bound of a variable. This index will be called bound index in the following. For a given active variable with problem index i (note that active variables have problem indices between 0 and nactivevariable - 1), the bound index of its lower bound is 2*i, the bound index of its upper bound is 2*i + 1. The other way around, a given bound index i corresponds to the variable with problem index i/2 (rounded down), and to the lower bound, if i is even, to the upper bound if i is odd. The following macros can be used to convert bound index into variable problem index and boundtype and vice versa.

#define getLbIndex(idx)   (2*(idx))
 
#define getUbIndex(idx)   (2*(idx)+1)
 
#define getVarIndex(idx)   ((idx)/2)

)
static

performs Tarjan's algorithm for strongly connected components in the implicitly given directed implication graph from the given start index; each variable x is represented by two nodes lb(x) = 2*idx(x) and ub(x) = 2*idx(x)+1 where lb(x) means that the lower bound of x should be changed, i.e., that x is fixed to 1, and vice versa.

The algorithm is an iterative version of Tarjans algorithm (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarjan%27s_strongly_connected_components_algorithm) with some additional tweaks. Each clique x_1 + ... + x_k <= 1 is represented by k(k-1) arcs (lb(x_i),ub(x_j)), j != i. This quadratic number can blow up the running time of Tarjan's algorithm, which is linear in the number of nodes and arcs of the graph. However, it suffices to consider only k of these arcs during the course of the algorithm. To this end, when we first come to a node lb(x_i) of the clique, traverse all arcs (lb(x_i),ub(x_j)) for this particular i, and store that we entered the clique via lb(x_i). Next time we come to any node lb(x_i') of the clique, we know that the only arc pointing to an unvisited node is (lb(x_i'),ub(x_i)), all other edges can be disregarded. After that, we can disregard the clique for the further search. Additionally, we try to identify infeasible fixings for binary variables. Those can be given by a path from x=1 to x=0 (or vice versa) or if x=0 (or 1) implies both y=0 and y=1.

presolving method of propagator: search for strongly connected components in the implication graph and aggregate all variables within a component; additionally, identifies infeasible variable assignments as a side product if a path from x=1 to x=0 (or vice versa) is found or x=1 implies both y=0 and y=1 The identification of such assignments depends on the order in which variable bounds are processed; therefore, we are doing a second run with the bounds processed in (almost) topological order.
