Subject: Potential error in CglTwomir


Hi,

I have isolated a situation in which I believe CglTwomir is returning invalid cuts. I have attached a test driver (driver.cpp), a test input file (mas74.mps, from miplib2003), and the output trace I obtain on our rather vanilla RedHat linux server.


The "catch" is that I'm using CPLEX 11.2, and the OsiCpxSolverInterface. Although this technically shouldn't matter, I suppose (the behavior also occurs with other versions of CPLEX).

A quick summary of the unexpected behavior:
1)      The LP relaxation for mas74 solves fine - relaxation is around 10K. Validated with various other solvers.
2)      3 two-mir cuts are found and successfully applied.
3)      Upon re-solve after cut addition, the LP relaxation is something like 21K, which is far above the integer optimal of ~11K. Obviously incorrect behavior.

Any help is greatly appreciated - I am seeing similar behavior on a handful of other test instances.

Thanks!

Jean-Paul
