Riassunto
In this Ph.D. thesis an important class of d.c. programs is studied from both a theoretical and an algorithmic point of view.
This class of problems is computationally studied with a "branch and bound" and a "branch and reduce" approaches, pointing out the e ffectiveness of partitioning rules and of stack policies for managing the branches. In this light, the results appeared in the literature are extended and deepened on. This study can be virtually divided into three main steps.
