Title: Algebraic Structure Discovery for Real World Combinatorial Optimisation Problems: A General Framework from Abstract Algebra to Quotient Space Learning
Abstract:
arXiv:2604.04941v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Many combinatorial optimisation problems hide algebraic structures that, once exposed, shrink the search space and improve the chance of finding the global optimal solution. We present a general framework that (i) identifies algebraic structure, (ii) formalises operations, (iii) constructs quotient spaces that collapse redundant representations, and (iv) optimises directly over these reduced spaces. Across a broad family of rule-combination tasks (
