We study the generalization of split, k-branch split, and intersection cuts from mixed integer linear programming to the realm of mixed integer nonlinear programming. Constructing such cuts requires calculating the convex hull of the difference between a convex set and an open set with a simple geometric structure. We introduce two techniques to give precise characterizations of such convex hulls and use them to construct split, k-branch split, and intersection cuts for several classes of non-polyhedral sets. In particular, we give simple formulas for split cuts for essentially all convex sets described by a single conic quadratic inequality. We also give simple formulas for k-branch split cuts and some general intersection cuts for a wide variety of convex quadratic sets.United States.
