Abstract: We present a mixed integer version of the lattice analogue of the Farkas Lemma. The result gives rise to a family of mixed-integer rounding cutting planes for mixed integer programs, which depend on the choice of a basis of a certain lattice. By choosing a Lovasz-reduced lattice basis, one can hope to generate numerically advantageous cutting planes.

Keywords: Farkas Lemma, mixed integer rounding cuts, lattice basis reduction
