We could have dmax unsigned, but it does not have to be from a branching
perspective, since the square is what gets used anyways.

I chose mu because of the mathematical similarity to the chemical potential in
statistical mechanics, where it denotes the energy per particle. Here, it
denotes the energy per contact assignment.

Heh, I guess I will have to write something at some point, without requiring
prior knowledge of Lagrange relaxation or the like. Time is a luxury these days...
