    Notes: Abstract Nonlinear optimizers often report infeasibility during the process of initial construction of a model, or alterations to an existing model. Because solvers are unable to decide feasibility of a nonlinear constraint set with perfect accuracy, there are numerous possible explanations: the physical model really is infeasible, there is an error in the nonlinear constraint set causing infeasibility, or the model is feasible but the initial point or solver parameters are poorly chosen. It is difficult to proceed to a diagnosis of the problem in a large NLP. This paper presents an algorithm providing automated assistance in analyzing infeasible NLPs. The deletion filtering algorithm isolates a Minimal Intractable Subsystem (MIS) of constraints, a minimal set of constraints which appears infeasible to the solver given a specified initial point and parameter settings. The MIS may be as small as a few constraints from among the very much larger set defining the original model, and helps to focus the examination, thereby speeding the diagnosis. A computer tool embodying the algorithm, LSGRG (MIS), is developed and applied to demonstration examples.

    Notes: Abstract The state-of-the-art methods for analyzing infeasible linear programs concentrate on isolating Irreducible Infeasible Sets (IISs) of constraints. However, when there are numerous infeasibilities in the model, it is also useful to identify a minimum-cardinality set of constraints which, if removed from the LP, renders it feasible. This set of constraintscovers the IISs. This paper presents a heuristic algorithm for finding a small-cardinality set of constraints which covers the IISs in an infeasible LP. Empirical tests show that it finds a true minimum-cardinality cover over all of the examples in a test set, though this performance cannot be guaranteed in general.
