How to transform these conditional constraints to linear integer ones in a more efficient way?
The conditional constraints A and B can be transformed to a set of linear integer constraints as follows:
A) $\text{if} \ x_1=0 \ \text{then} \ d_1=1 \ \text{else} \ d_1= 0\\ x_1\in {\rm I\!R}^{\geq ...

When is the McCormick envelope exact?
I know that given $S$ of the form
$$
S = \{ (x,y,z) \in \mathbb R^3: \ell_x \leq x \leq u_x; \ell_y \leq y \leq u_y; z = xy\}
$$
with finite lower and upper bounds, the McCormick envelope of $S$ ...
