Bilevel optimization has garnered growing interest over the past decade. However, little attention has been paid to detecting and dealing with unboundedness...

Retailers routinely face the strategic decision of how to promote their products. Two of the most common promotion strategies are bundling and discounting. D...

This paper considers the problem of designing urban mobility hubs by modeling them as service-integrated hub-line location problems. We integrate traditional...

This paper addresses the problem of efficiently routing vehicles for spring sweeping operations in countries that spread sand and gravel on roads in winter. ...

Mean Field Game equilibria are based on the assumption of instantaneous interactions within a population of interchangeable agents, where each agent's impact...

In this paper, we address the problem of online estimation of spherical features in the field of camera for robotics. Specifically, we consider a mobile robo...

The central limit theorem is a fundamental result in probability theory that characterizes the distribution of deviation from the mean in the law of large nu...

Motivated by our collaboration with an online platform operating in North America, we explore the joint optimization of the order fulfillment process with pe...

We consider chemical graphs that are defined as connected graphs of maximum degree at most 3. We characterize the extremal ones, that is, those that maximize...

We investigate the impact of information asymmetry regarding the producer of remanufactured products on the decisions of a manufacturer and an authorized r...

Blending problems occur when different components are mixed to form an end product. The recipe typically has some flexibility as long as specific quality con...

A three-region optimal economic growth model is proposed to represent the global energy transition to net-zero emissions when carbon dioxide removal (CDR) te...

Integrating Optical Transport Networks (OTNs) into multilayer Elastic Optical Networks (EONs) enhances data transmission efficiency but introduces significan...

Population growth and city sprawl have been driving increasing amounts of traffic congestion in multiple major cities worldwide. In this scenario, developing...

The procurement of freight services is an important element for the supply chain management of a shipper (i.e., a manufacturer or retailer) that sources tran...

We propose a dynamic stochastic game model to assess the value of restrictive clauses in private loan contracts. Restrictive clauses are used by lenders to m...

to account for tail risks associated with an uncertain loss. With limited data, the empirical entropic risk estimator, i.e. replacing the expectation in the ...

We propose some diagonal Hessian approximations of the least-squares nonlinear function. We use suitable diagonal matrices that carry some information of the...

High-impact climate damages are often driven by compounding climate conditions. For example, elevated heat stress conditions can arise from a combination of ...

In the multi-commodity two-echelon vehicle routing problem with time windows (MC-2E-VRPTW), first-echelon vehicles transport goods from depots to satellites...
