34 János Balogh, József Békési, Gábor Galambos, and Mihály Csaba Markót4. SummaryThe paper <strong>de</strong>alt with a nice connection between a discrete (combinatorial) optimization problemand global optimization. The lower bound constructions given for special bin packingproblems led to a nonlinear optimization problem, and after some transformations the solutionswere <strong>de</strong>livered. Our construction is more general than the ones of [11] and [9], and itsspecial cases improved the results of [9] by answering the questions raised in the paper.AcknowledgmentsThe research was supported by the Hungarian National Research Fund (projects T 048377 andT 046822) an by the MÖB-DAAD Hungarian-German Researcher Exchange Program (projectNo. 21). The authors wish to thank to Tamás Vinkó for his i<strong>de</strong>as and for the first, previousnumerical tests.References[1] J. Balogh, J. Békési, and G. Galambos.
