Crate oximo 

oximo is a Rust algebraic modeling library for mathematical optimization. Build LP, MILP, QP/MIQP, NLP, and MINLP models with a clean builder API, then solve them with bundled or commercial solvers.

use oximo::prelude::*;
use oximo::solvers::Highs;

let m = Model::new("transport");
let x = m.var("x").lb(0.0).build();
let y = m.var("y").lb(0.0).ub(4.0).build();

m.constraint("c1", (x + 2.0 * y).le(14.0));
m.constraint("c2", (3.0 * x).ge(y));
m.constraint("c3", x.le(y + 2.0));
m.maximize(3.0 * x + 4.0 * y);

let result = Highs.solve(&m, &HighsOptions::default())?;
println!("obj = {:?}", result.objective);   // 34.0
println!("x   = {:?}", result.value_of(x)); // 6.0
println!("y   = {:?}", result.value_of(y)); // 4.0

Building models

Variables

let m = Model::new("my_model");

let x = m.var("x").lb(0.0).build();           // continuous, x >= 0
let y = m.var("y").lb(0.0).ub(10.0).build();  // continuous, 0 <= y <= 10
let z = m.var("z").build();                   // free (unbounded by default)
let b = m.var("b").binary().build();          // binary {0, 1}
let n = m.var("n").lb(0.0).integer().build(); // general integer

Constraints and objectives

Expressions are built with standard Rust operators. Scalar multiplication, addition, subtraction, and nonlinear operations (see Nonlinear Expressions) all work out of the box:

m.constraint("cap", (2.0 * x + 3.0 * y).le(100.0));
m.constraint("demand", x.ge(5.0));
m.constraint("balance", (x - y).eq(0.0));

m.minimize(3.0 * x + 5.0 * y);
// or
m.maximize(x + 2.0 * y);

Index sets

Set is the modeling-layer container for an ordered, finite index set. Build one over integers, strings, or arbitrary tuples. You can combine sets with the Cartesian product operator &a * &b, and filter sparsely.

use oximo::prelude::*;

let items = Set::range(0..5);
let n_items = Set::range(0..weights.len());
let plants = Set::strings(["seattle", "san-diego"]);

// Cartesian product -> tuple keys, flattens automatically across nesting.
let routes = &plants * &Set::strings(["nyc", "chi", "topeka"]);
assert_eq!(routes.len(), 6);

// Sparse subsets via filter without self-loops
let arcs = (&plants * &plants).filter(|k| {
    let p = k.as_tuple().unwrap();
    p[0] != p[1]
});

Indexed variables

Model::indexed_var(name, &set) registers one scalar per key with auto-named entries like x[seattle,nyc]. Bounds apply uniformly by default, you can use lb_by / ub_by for per-key bounds.

let m = Model::new("transport");
let x = m.indexed_var("x", &routes).lb(0.0).build();

// Scalar lookup: any type that converts to IndexKey works.
let e1 = x[("seattle", "nyc")];
let e2 = x[("san-diego", "chi")];

// Per-key upper bound (e.g. capacity per arc).
let _y = m.indexed_var("y", &routes)
    .lb(0.0)
    .ub_by(|(p, q): (String, String)| capacity_for(&p, &q))
    .build();

Summing over sets

sum_over(&set, |k| expr) reads as sum_{k in set} expr(k). The closure receives the index as a typed value via FromIndexKey. Built-in impls cover i64, i32, usize, String, raw IndexKey, and tuples up to arity 4. State the shape in the closure-arg annotation.

// Single sum: sum_{i in items} weights[i] * x[i]
let total_weight = sum_over(&items, |i: usize| weights[i] * x[i]);
m.constraint("cap", total_weight.le(capacity));

// Double sum, flat: sum_{(p,q) in P*M} c[p,q] * x[p,q]
let total_cost = sum_over(&(&plants * &markets), |(p, q): (String, String)| {
    c[(&p, &q)] * x[(p, q)]
});

// Coefficient-weighted sum on paired Vecs: sum_{i} w_i * x_i
let weight_sum = dot(&xs, &weights);

// Freeform iterator -> use Iterator::sum.
let active = (0..n).filter(|&i| online[i]).map(|i| x[i]).sum::<Expr>();

Rule-style constraints

Model::add_constraints_over is the constraint equivalent of sum_over, a closure receives the index as a typed value and returns one constraint per set element.

// Scalar set: one constraint per period.
let periods = Set::range(0..T);
m.add_constraints_over("setup", &periods, |t: usize| {
    (x[t] - capacity * s[t]).le(0.0)
});

// Tuple set: destructure inline. Inner `sum_over` builds the LHS expression.
m.add_constraints_over("supply", &plants, |p: String| {
    sum_over(&markets, |q: String| x[(&p, q)]).le(supply_of(&p))
});

// Want the raw key? Annotate as IndexKey (clones once per iteration).
m.add_constraints_over("c", &set, |k: IndexKey| x[&k].le(1.0));

Nonlinear expressions

Pow, Sin, Cos, Exp, Log, Abs, and bilinear products are first-class. The model’s kind (LP/MILP/QP/MIQP/NLP/MINLP) is inferred from the expressions.

// Rosenbrock NLP
m.minimize((1.0 - x).powi(2) + 100.0 * (y - x.powi(2)).powi(2));

// Quadratic constraint
m.constraint("disk", (x.powi(2) + y.powi(2)).le(1.0));

// Transcendental utility (MINLP when any variable is integer/binary)
m.maximize(sum_over(&items, |i: usize| u[i] * (1.0 + w[i] * x[i]).log()));

Solving

All backends implement the Solver trait:

pub trait Solver {
    fn solve(&mut self, model: &Model, opts: &Self::Options) -> Result<SolverResult, SolverError>;
}
