Abstract

We consider two apparently unrelated classes of combinatorial and geometric optimization problems. First, we give compact extended formulations, i.e., polynomial-size linear programming formulations with integer optima, for optimum path problems with turn restrictions satisfying a nested compatibility condition in acyclic digraphs. We then apply these results to optimum convex polygon problems in the plane, by interpreting certain dynamic programming algorithms as sequences of optimum turn-restricted path problems with nested compatibility in acyclic digraphs. As a result, we derive compact extended formulations for these geometric problems as well.

If needed, we could add an origin 0 and a destination n connected to all 0p nodes, and from all \(\overline{qn}\) nodes, respectively, with zero-revenue arcs, so we seek a maximum value (0, n)-path in the resulting expanded network. This is, however, unnecessary for our purposes.

Recall that both nodes 0 and \(n_t\) represent the point \(x^t\).
