Moreover, if the variables are 0/1 it is better to use BoolVar instead of
IntVar.

You cannot use expressions like x-y for posting constraints (not in
Java, anyway). You have to use an integer array with coefficients
{1,-1} and an array of IntVar containing x.row[i] and x.col[i] instead
and give those to linear. See the documentation of the linear
constraint posting function.
