Relaxations for binary polynomial optimization via signed certificates
Abstract
We consider the problem of minimizing a polynomial over the binary hypercube. We show that, for a specific set of polynomials, their binary non-negativity can be checked in a polynomial time via minimum cut algorithms, and we construct a linear programming representation for this set through the min-cut-max-flow duality. We categorize binary polynomials based on their signed support patterns and develop parameterized linear programming representations of binary non-negative polynomials. This allows for constructing binary non-negative signed certificates with adjustable signed support patterns and representation complexities, and we propose a method for minimizing by decomposing it into signed certificates. This method yields new hierarchies of linear programming relaxations for binary polynomial optimization. Moreover, since our decomposition only depends on the support of , the new hierarchies are sparsity-preserving.
