On the facets of mixed integer programs with two integer variables and two constraints

In this paper we consider an infinite relaxation of the mixed integer linear program with two integer variables, nonnegative continuous variables and two equality constraints, and we give a complete characterization of its facets. We also derive an analogous characterization of the facets of the underlying finite integer program.
