Priority based demand fulfilment in Linear Constraint

Say I have 3 sources. D1, D2, D3. their capacity is 100, 200, 400. I want to create some constraints such that First D1 is depleted then D2 and then D3. But the catch is you cant use min or max ...

If $x_1 \geq 4$ then **one** out of the following three constraints must hold: $x_2 \leq 3, x_3 \leq 4, x_4=5$

How does one linearize the following constraints: If $x_1 \geq 4$ then one out of the following three constraints must hold: $x_2 \leq 3, x_3 \leq 4, x_4=5$. $$x_1 \leq 4 + Mz_1$$ $$x_2 \leq 3 + M(1-...

Is there a better way of defining a constraint on positive integer variables such that no two variables are the same and are uniquely assigned a value

So suppose I have integer variables $x_1,x_2,\dots,x_N$ and I enforce that the integer variables are bounded i.e $1 \leq x_i \leq N$ I was interested in posing a constraint so that in the collection $...

How can I linearize this IF-THEN constraint?

Let $P_{t,u}; t=1,2,\ldots,T, u=1,2,\ldots,U$ be known values $\alpha$ is also a known parameter $X_{t,u}$ an optimization variable I have the following constraint: IF $P_{t,u}\geq\alpha$, THEN $X_{...
