Abstract

Computing the 1-width of the incidence matrix of a Steiner Triple System gives rise to highly symmetric and computationally challenging set covering problems. The largest instance solved so far corresponds to a Steiner Tripe System of order 81. We present optimal solutions for systems of orders 135 and 243. These are computed by a tailored implementation of constraint orbital branching, a method designed to exploit symmetry in integer programs.
