Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Theory of Linear and Integer Programming by Alexander Schrijver from the Centrum voor Wiskunde en Informatica, Amsterdam, The Netherlands, describes the theory of linear and integer programming and surveys the algorithms for linear and integer programming problems, focusing on complexity analysis.

This book aims to complement the more practically oriented books in this field. A special feature is the author's coverage of important recent developments in linear and integer programming. Applications to combinatorial optimisation are given, and the author also includes extensive historical surveys and bibliographies.

The book is intended for graduate students and researchers in operations research, mathematics, and computer science. It will also be of interest to mathematical historians.
