Groebner base optimal solution with inequalities

96 Views Asked by At

I have to solve the following optimization problem using Groebner bases. The objective function is

$$x_1+x_2+x_3+x_4$$

with constraints

$$x_1+x_2 \ge 1, \qquad x_1+x_2+x_3 \ge 1, \qquad x_2+x_3+x_4 \ge 1, \qquad x_1+x_3+x_4 \ge 1$$

I tried in Maple, Mathematica and Matlab without success. Could someone help me with this? I have no idea.
