Organizer

This is a review talk on an infinite dimensional relaxation of mixed integer programs (MIP) that was developed by Gomory and Johnson. We will discuss the relationship between cutting planes for the original MIP and its infinite dimensional relaxation. Time permitting, various structural results about the infinite dimensional problem and some open problems will be presented.
