Linear bilevel optimization: overview and recent results
Martine Labbé
A bilevel optimization problem consists in an optimization problem in which some of the constraints specify that a subset of variables must be an optimal solution to another optimization problem. This paradigm is particularly appropriate to model competition between agents, a leader and a follower, acting sequentially. In this talk I will focus on the simplest bilevel problems, those that are linear. I will present the main characteristics, properties and algorithms for these problems. Then, I will discuss some recent results showing that these problems are already extremely challenging. This is a joint work with Thomas Kleinert, Martin Schmidt and Frank Plein.
