On the Complexity of Recognizing Integrality and Total Dual Integrality of the {0,1/2}-Closure
share
The {0,1/2}-closure of a rational polyhedron { x Ax ≤ b } is obtained by adding all Gomory-Chvátal cuts that can be derived from the linear system Ax ≤ b using multipliers in {0,1/2}. We show that deciding whether the {0,1/2}-closure coincides with the integer hull is strongly NP-hard. A direct consequence of our proof is that, testing whether the linear description of the {0,1/2}-closure derived from Ax ≤ b is totally dual integral, is strongly NP-hard.
