Computing the stability number of a graph via linear and semidefinite programming

J Pena, J Vera, LF Zuluaga - SIAM Journal on Optimization, 2007 - SIAM
We study certain linear and semidefinite programming lifting approximation schemes for
computing the stability number of a graph. Our work is based on and refines de Klerk and …

A copositive approach for two-stage adjustable robust optimization with uncertain right-hand sides

G Xu, S Burer - Computational Optimization and Applications, 2018 - Springer
We study two-stage adjustable robust linear programming in which the right-hand sides are
uncertain and belong to a convex, compact uncertainty set. This problem is NP-hard, and the …

A PTAS for the minimization of polynomials of fixed degree over the simplex

E De Klerk, M Laurent, PA Parrilo - Theoretical Computer Science, 2006 - Elsevier
We consider the problem of computing the minimum value pmin taken by a polynomial p (x)
of degree d over the standard simplex Δ. This is an NP-hard problem already for degree d …

Completely positive reformulations for polynomial optimization

J Pena, JC Vera, LF Zuluaga - Mathematical Programming, 2015 - Springer
Polynomial optimization encompasses a very rich class of problems in which both the
objective and constraints can be written in terms of polynomials on the decision variables …

Representing quadratically constrained quadratic programs as generalized copositive programs

S Burer, H Dong - Operations Research Letters, 2012 - Elsevier
We show that any (nonconvex) quadratically constrained quadratic program (QCQP) can be
represented as a generalized copositive program. In fact, we provide two representations …

To find a global optimal solution to the quadratically constrained quadratic programming
problem, we explore the relationship between its Lagrangian multipliers and related linear …

LP-based Construction of DC Decompositions for Efficient Inference of Markov Random Fields

C Murti, D Kashyap… - … Conference on Artificial …, 2024 - proceedings.mlr.press
The success of the convex-concave procedure (CCCP), a widely used technique for non-
convex optimization, crucially depends on finding a decomposition of the objective function …

[HTML][HTML] On the exactness of sum-of-squares approximations for the cone of 5× 5 copositive matrices

M Laurent, LF Vargas - Linear Algebra and its Applications, 2022 - Elsevier
We investigate the hierarchy of conic inner approximations K n (r)(r∈ N) for the copositive
cone COP n, introduced by Parrilo (2000)[22]. It is known that COP 4= K 4 (0) and that, while …
