I have solved using SCIP a convex mathematical model with binary variables, linear Objective function and a set of linear constraints amended with a single non-linear constraint making the model as a non-linear binary problem. In the output file provided by SCIP, there is a term named as: First LP value and a value has been assigned to. I cannot figure out what is exactly the meaning of First LP value for my specific nonlinear problem ?? I appreciate any explanation in detail.
For solving nonlinear problems, SCIP solves linear programming relaxations (LPs) that describe an outer approximation of the feasible region. The first LP value is the value of the optimal solution to the initial LP that was solved at the root node, after presolving, but before any separation.
