How can we enable Indexers to input their preferences into the Allocation Optimizer and how do those preferences can impact the Allocation Optimization problem? How can we account for gas fees while optimizing?

Indexers within The Graph Protocol are rewarded via an indexing reward. How can indexers optimise their allocations so as to maximise the reward they receive? In this blog post we formalise the problem in terms of a reward function and use convex optimization to find a solution.
