Boolean operation on n dimensional polyhedron
A polyhedron in $R^n$ is defined by a set of half-planes: $P = \{x \in R^n \mid Ax - b \le 0\}$.
Given a set of polyhedra in $R^n$, $ P_1, P_2, \dotsc, P_k$, is there an algorithm/implementation that ...

Drawing a 3D object in a 3D environment, and converting to math [closed]
So I have been granted a free time and I want to work on a project but first I had to research.
As we know, lines have infinite points, and with lines, we can create infinite shapes. I want to let ...

Detecting non-negativity of a single constraint by polyhedral constraints - $II$
Let $$\langle a,x\rangle=b$$ be a linear constraint where $x\in\mathbb R^n$ and every entry in $a=(a_1,\dots,a_n)$ is in $\mathbb Z_{\geq0}^{n}$ (non-negative) and the entry $b$ is in $\mathbb Z_{\...

Integer programming and Groebner basis
I enjoyed reading different papers about using Groebner basis to solve integer programming.
Is there any literature about the complexity and/or comparison with other (more classical) methods like ...

Existence of Nonnegative Solutions of Linear Systems of Equations and Inequalities with particular constraints
Suppose we have an $n \times m$ nonnegative matrix $A$, where each row sums to $1$. I wonder whether there exists an $m \times n$ nonnegative matrix $X$ that satisfies the following constraints:
...

Arrangements of hyperplanes
Fix $n>0$ and $X\subseteq\mathbb{R}^n$. A function $f:X\longrightarrow\mathbb{R}$ is linear if it is of the form
$$
f(\bar{x})=a_1x_1+\ldots+a_nx_n+b
$$
for some $a_i,b\in\mathbb{R}$.
Suppose we ...

Closest 3D rotation matrix in the Frobenius norm sense
Given a 3 by 3 matrix $M$ I would like to find the rotation matrix $R$ minimizing the Frobenius norm:
\begin{equation}
\|R-M\|_F
\end{equation}
Is there a closed form solution for $R$, or is it ...

Mathematical Programming with other Algebras than Linear
Linear Programming is strongly entwined with linear algebra, as are many of its generalizations under the heading of mathematical programming / convex optimization.
What analogies are there for ...
