Lower bound on size of branch-and-bound trees for solving lot-sizing problem
Abstract
We show that there exists a family of instances of the lot-sizing problem, such that any branch-and-bound tree that solves them requires an exponential number of nodes, even in the case when the branchings are performed on general split disjunctions.
