Sum of squares (SOS) optimization is a powerful technique for solving problems where the positivity of a polynomials must be enforced. The common approach to solve an SOS problem is by relaxation to a Semidefinite Program (SDP). The main…
We describe a parametric univariate quadratic optimization problem for which the moment-SOS hierarchy has finite but increasingly slow convergence when the parameter tends to its limit value. We estimate the order of finite convergence as a…
