-Fold integer programming is a fundamental problem with a variety of natural applications in operations research and statistics. Moreover, it is universal and provides a new, variable-dimension, parametrization of all of integer programming. The fastest algorithm for
n
-fold integer programming predating the present article runs in time
with
L
the binary length of the numerical part of the input and
g
(
A
) the so-called Graver complexity of the bimatrix
A
defining the system. In this article we provide a drastic improvement and establish an algorithm which runs in time
O
(
n

L
) having cubic dependency on
n
regardless of the bimatrix
A
. Our algorithm works for separable convex piecewise affine objectives as well. Moreover, it can be used to define a hierarchy of approximations for any integer programming problem. |
