مستخلص: In this paper we study width of semialgebraic proof systems and various cut-based procedures in integer programming. We focus on two important systems: Gomory-Chvátal cutting planes and Lovász-Schrijver lift-and-project procedures. We develop general methods for proving width lower bounds and apply them to random k-CNFs and several popular combinatorial principles, like the perfect matching principle and Tseitin tautologies. We also show how to apply our methods to various combinatorial optimization problems. We establish a 'supercritical' trade-off between width and rank, that is we give an example in which small width proofs are possible but require exponentially many rounds to perform them.
