Abstract

In this paper, we proposean algorithm for solving a linear programwith an additional rank-two reverse convex constraint.Unlike the existing methods which generate approximatelyoptimal solutions,the algorithm provides a rigorous optimal solution to thisnonconvex problem by a finite number of dual pivot operations.Computational results indicate that the algorithm is practicaland can solve fairly large scale problems.
