Topkis's theorem
In mathematical economics, Topkis's theorem is a result that is useful for establishing comparative statics. The theorem allows researchers to understand how the optimal value for a choice variable ch
Special ordered set
In discrete optimization, a special ordered set (SOS) is an ordered set of variables used as an additional way to specify integrality conditions in an optimization model. Special order sets are basica
Supermodular function
In mathematics, a function is supermodular if for all , , where denotes the componentwise maximum and the componentwise minimum of and . If −f is supermodular then f is called submodular, and if the i
