27  * @brief lookahead LP branching rule
28  * @author Christoph Schubert
29  * @author Gerald Gamrath
30  *
31  * The (multi-level) lookahead branching rule applies strong branching to every fractional value of the LP solution
32  * at the current node of the branch-and-bound tree, as well as recursivly to every temporary child problem created by this
33  * strong branching. The rule selects the candidate with the best proven dual bound.
34  *
35  * The branching rule was motivated by the following technical report:

38  * Wasu Glankwamdee and Jeff Linderoth@n
39  * Lookahead Branching for Mixed Integer Programming@n
40  * Technical Report 06T-004, Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering, Lehigh University.

42  * For a more mathematical description and a comparison between lookahead branching and other branching rules
43  * in SCIP, we refer to
