What happens if the no one provides a solution

[josojo]

Proposal:
In case no solution is provided or only invalid solutions, the orders can be omitted by the smart contract and the smart contract will restart the auction for a new batch.

Technically speaking, this would be equivalent to applying the NullAuction (which still lies feasible region of the optimization problem).

Perhaps it would make sense to impose a time limit before the null results can be applied.

Is this a scenario for after we turn off the default solver? An alternative scenario would be to run a low cost default solver, e.g. a neural network after our default solver becomes obsolete. At the biz end, this would also be a topic for the community fund. NullAuction should be the very last resort.

We hope that it never happens, but it could always happen. Just it all our services are down or if miners censor all blocks and mine empty blocks

I will not be able to propose a reasonable implementation of this until I get to the point in the contract where it becomes necessary. I think we will have much clearer vision on what makes the most sense "architecturally" when we have the infrastructure to support it.
