IntegerRelation uses Fourier-Motzkin elimination and Gaussian elimination to simplify constraints. These methods may repeatedly perform calculations and elimination on irrelevant variables. Preemptively eliminating irrelevant variables and their associated constraints can speed up up the calculation process.

…ds of an Integer Relation

IntegerRelation uses Fourier-Motzkin elimination and Gaussian elimination to
simplify constraints. These methods may repeatedly perform calculations and
elimination on irrelevant variables. Preemptively eliminating irrelevant
variables and their associated constraints can speed up up the calculation process.

@Superty This seems like something we already have implemented somewhere? Can you review this PR?

Off the top of my head I don't remember such a thing

Hi @cxy-1993, sorry about the delay here. In "Prune constraints that are irrelevant to the target variable.", how is irrelevant defined?

Hi @cxy-1993, sorry about the delay here. In "Prune constraints that are irrelevant to the target variable.", how is irrelevant defined?

In my opinion, the definition of variable irrelevance is as follows: If variables are considered as nodes and equations/inequalities as edges between nodes, a set of constraints forms an undirected graph. Variables in different connected components are irrelevant. This patch is about finding all nodes within the same connected component and then removing all nodes and related edges (equations and inequalities) that are not in the same connected component.

I probably won't be able to look at this for a few more weeks, sorry. I would suggest adding some more documentation explaining what irrelevant means though. Is there a geometric interpretation of the definition? Maybe it makes sense to explain it with reference to Fourier motzkin?

The implementation could also use some more documentation. Thanks!
