Summary description: Environments for writing optimization problems
Announcement text:
Optidef version 3.0 has now been released. Besides correcting some long-standing issues, the library can now split optimization problems across multiple pages and has a global option for defining the constraint format.
The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/optidef The package’s files themselves can be inspected at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/optidef/
Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Petra Rübe-Pugliese

optidef – Environments for writing optimization problems
This small library provides a standard set of environments for writing optimization problems.
It automatically aligns the problems in three points with an optional fourth:
- Beginning of the words “minimize/argmin” and “subject to”
- The objective function and the longest left hand side of the constraints.
- The $= | > | <$ signs of the constraints.
- Optionally, the user can add manually a double align character && to align some common constraints feature. A clear example could be the constraints names, e.g. (boundary constraint) alignment with (dynamic constraint).
Furthermore, it provides an easy interface to define optimization problem for three different reference situations:
- Where no equation is referenced/numbered.
- Where the problem is referenced with a single number.
- Where each equation has an individual reference.
Finally, it also allows a definition of any optimization problem without a limitless number of constraints.
