Pooling Network Library for Pyomo

This library provides classes and functions to describe pooling-like network optimization problems.

The pooling_network library can be used to describe the network structure of pooling problems and then generate Pyomo optimization problems from it. Currently the library supports generating optimization problems using the PQ-formulation.

The library also includes a MIP-restriction of the pooling problem [DEY2015] that performs well on dense instances, and a convex relaxation of the pooling problem used to generate valid cuts [LUEDTKE2020].
