Are all Integer Linear Programming problems NP-Hard? [migrated]

As I understand, the assignment problem is in P as the Hungarian algorithm can solve it in polynomial time - O(n3). I also understand that the assignment problem is an integer linear programming ...

General covering approximation

Consider the following integer program (general covering): $\min c \cdot x$ subject to $Ax \ge b$, where all entries in $A, b, c$ are nonnegative and $x$ is required to be nonnegative and integral. ...

How to determine proper rounding in linear programming relaxations?

Recall that in the vertex cover problem we are given an undirected graph ${G=(V,E)}$ and we want to find a minimum-size set of vertices ${S}$ that “touches” all the edges of the graph, that is, such ...

Slightly Faster Exponential Algorithm for Integer Programming with Multi-linear Variables

Integer programing is one of the most narutal optimization tools. As an analogy of DNF or CNF in the Boolean function theory, we can consider the following equation. $x_{1}x_{2}x_{3}+$ ...

Is 0-1 programming with constant number of constraints polynomially solvable?

It was shown in the paper "Integer Programming with a Fixed Number of Variables" that integer programmings with constant number of constraints (or variables) are polynomially solvable. Does this hold ...

Minimal non-negative linear combination of positive integers larger than a positive integer

The problem is the following: We have a positive integer $w$. A set of positive integers $A$ such that $\forall a \in A$ it's true that $a \leq w$. We search for the minimal integer $x$ such that $w ...
