Indicator function for integer variable with inequality constraint

I have $n$ integer variables $\vec{x}$ with the following integer programming problem. $$ COST = \sum^{n-1}_{i = 0} a_i x_i + \sum^{n-1}_{j=0} b_j I(x_j > 0) $$ Here, $a_i, b_j \in \mathbb{R}_+$ ...

The rule of the slack variable in an indicator constraint

In some cases I have seen, the indicator constraint can be written as indcons(expression, binary_var). Then it is interpreted as follows: $$LHS - slack (\leq = \geq)...
