Abstract

In this paper we consider the problem of minimizing the product of two affine functions over a polyhedral set. An approximation algorithm is proposed and it is proved that it is a Fully Polynomial Time Approximation Scheme. We will also present and computationally investigate an exact version of the algorithm.
