  • Add general mod-2 zero-half separation. The separator finds combinations of constraint rows whose odd coefficients cancel modulo 2 while their aggregated right-hand side remains odd. Halving and rounding this aggregate yields a valid cut.
  • Use sparse GF(2) elimination to find these row dependencies, then transform, lift, score, and add violated candidates to the cut pool.
  • Propagate B&B timeouts to active node solves and improve work unit checks for some cuts.
  • Update PaPILO pin for the coefficient-capacity guard fix.

On H100, two runs each:
Main vs mod-2
Feasible | 224.0 | 226.5 | +2.5
Average error gap | 12.285 | 11.655 | -0.630
Optimal instances | 76.5 | 77.5 | +1.0
Root gap closed average | 29.7518% | 31.0948% | +1.3429%
Root gap closed shifted geomean (+1) | 10.4875% | 11.1626% | +0.6750%
MIP gap unchanged, due to some cut passes taking longer.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds modular-2 zero-half cut generation, integrates it into zero-half separation, adds lifted mixed-binary covers, propagates time and work limits through separators, updates build dependencies, and adjusts concurrent branch-and-bound termination signaling.

Changes

Zero-half separation and solver limits

Layer / File(s)Summary
Branch-and-bound termination
cpp/src/branch_and_bound/branch_and_bound.cpp
Node LP setup now stops when no global time remains. Plunging and best-first search defer concurrent halt signaling until search exit. Diving retains immediate timeout signaling.
Separator time and work budgets
cpp/src/cuts/cuts.hpp, cpp/src/cuts/cuts.cpp
Knapsack, implied-bound, MIR, bound-substitution, and slack-substitution paths now propagate deadlines and account for work.
GF(2) zero-half pipeline
cpp/src/cuts/cuts.hpp, cpp/src/cuts/cuts.cpp, cpp/src/cuts/zero_half_mod2.cpp, cpp/src/cuts/CMakeLists.txt, cpp/CMakeLists.txt
The build includes modular-2 separation. New APIs and implementations discover parity-row combinations, generate aggregate zero-half cuts, create lifted mixed-binary covers, and insert violated cuts.
Validation and implementation guidance
cpp/tests/mip/cuts_test.cu, skills/cuopt-developer/SKILL.md, skills/cuopt-developer/references/conventions.md
Tests cover GF(2) combinations, work limits, and triangle-instance root-LP tightening. C++ guidance documents helper extraction and work accounting.

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~90 minutes

Merge Risk:🟠 High · up to f799e

The PR changes branch-and-bound timeout handling, but current paths can leave the main search unaware of RINS expiry, continue work after termination, or report inconsistent status; very large coefficient values can also trigger undefined numeric conversion. These issues can cause budget overruns, inconsistent solves, or rare runtime failures, so the PR is not safe to merge until corrected.

Use one tolerance scaling for the cover test and the lambda guard.

Line 685 tests the cover excess with a relative threshold tolerance * std::max(1.0, std::abs(base.rhs)). Line 694 tests lambda with an absolute tolerance. For a large |base.rhs| the loop can end without ever declaring a cover, while lambda still passes the absolute guard. The generated cut is then based on a near-zero excess and is numerically weak. Use the same relative scale in both places.

1519-1534: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Add a direct validity test for generate_lifted_mixed_binary_cover.

The new lifted mixed-binary cover routine in cpp/src/cuts/zero_half_mod2.cpp (lines 626-749) performs cover selection, sequence-independent lifting, and local complementation. This cohort covers it only indirectly through the end-to-end zero-half tests, so an incorrect lifted coefficient can pass CI silently.

This file already has the right pattern: expect_single_node_flow_cut_valid_at_extreme_points checks a generated cut at all feasible extreme points. A small binary knapsack row plus that check would assert both validity at every integer point and violation at the fractional point.

Do you want me to draft that test?

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Guard the magnitude before std::llround.

mod2_integral_scale accepts a value as integral using a relative tolerance, so a very large coefficient or right-hand side (for example 1e19) passes the check. std::llround on a value outside the long long range is undefined behavior, and the parity derived from it is meaningless. Reject candidates whose magnitude exceeds a safe bound before computing parity.

I haven't triple checked the surrounding code, but do you think this is something that could be RAII'd? e.g. with a scope_guard

There are few other break/return reasons, so a single RAII object might be a bit confusing because there are two different logic for checking time limit (lp_status, toc(exploration_stats_.start_time) > settings_.time_limit). We would still need some logic within each break block. What I can do is to leave setting solver_status_ = mip_status_t::TIME_LIMIT; and do the concurrent halt at the end of the function, if it is time limit.

I think they are slightly different:

  • There is filtering of continuous variables and integral valued variables from the check.
  • Work unit accounting.
  • Relative tolerance.

It is a simple function, I think trying to reuse might complicate the logic with more parameters and ifs.

Propagate the early TIME_LIMIT through rins.

When this new check returns dual_status_t::TIME_LIMIT, rins receives the status at Lines 2691-2693 and only exits its local loop. It does not set solver_status_ or node_concurrent_halt_. The main branch-and-bound search can therefore continue after the global time budget expires until another path performs a time check.

Handle dual_status_t::TIME_LIMIT in rins and publish the global halt state before returning.

1569-1570: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Propagate TIME_LIMIT from every solve_node_lp caller.

When this check returns dual_status_t::TIME_LIMIT, plunge_with() and dive_with() update solver_status_. rins() only breaks at Line [2698]. It does not update solver_status_ or node_concurrent_halt_. A RINS LP can therefore exhaust the global budget while the main search continues. Propagate the timeout in rins() or enforce this caller contract centrally.

Ensure every solve_node_lp caller propagates dual_status_t::TIME_LIMIT
consistently. In particular, update rins() to set solver_status_ and
node_concurrent_halt_ before stopping when the LP reports TIME_LIMIT, matching
plunge_with() and dive_with(); alternatively enforce this behavior centrally at
the shared caller boundary.

- Around line 1848-1850: Make worker admission in launch_bfs_worker() race-safe
with solver_status_ termination: synchronize the status check with
idle-worker/node acquisition, or revalidate solver_status_ immediately after
stealing and return both the node and worker without creating a task when
termination is observed. Ensure tasks cannot start after TIME_LIMIT or OPTIMAL,
and preserve worker/queue ownership on the early return.
