Higher-dimensional orthogonal packing problems have a wide range of practical applications, including packing, cutting, and scheduling. Previous efforts for exact algorithms have been unable to avoid structural problems that appear for…
The ellipsoid method is an algorithm that solves the (weak) feasibility and linear optimization problems for convex sets by making oracle calls to their (weak) separation problem. We observe that the previously known method for showing that…
This paper presents an iterative scheme that converges to the solution of a pseudo-monotone variational inequality problem in the setting of $\mathbb{R}^{n}$. Traditional methods often require projections onto the feasible set…
Many combinatorial optimisation problems can be modelled as valued constraint satisfaction problems. In this paper, we present a polynomial-time algorithm solving the valued constraint satisfaction problem for a fixed number of variables…
Many classical and modern machine learning algorithms require solving optimization tasks under orthogonality constraints. Solving these tasks with feasible methods requires a gradient descent update followed by a retraction operation on the…
A subgradient method is presented for solving general convex optimization problems, the main requirement being that a strictly-feasible point is known. A feasible sequence of iterates is generated, which converges to within user-specified…
We prove new necessary and sufficient conditions to carry out a compact linearization approach for a general class of binary quadratic problems subject to assignment constraints as it has been proposed by Liberti in 2007. The new conditions…
We consider a strongly heterogeneous medium saturated by an incompressible viscous fluid as it appears in geomechanical modeling. This poroelasticity problem suffers from rapidly oscillating material parameters, which calls for a thorough…
We consider optimization problems with polynomial inequality constraints in non-commuting variables. These non-commuting variables are viewed as bounded operators on a Hilbert space whose dimension is not fixed and the associated polynomial…
We complete the complexity classification by degree of minimizing a polynomial over the integer points in a polyhedron in $\mathbb{R}^2$. Previous work shows that optimizing a quadratic polynomial over the integer points in a polyhedral…

We introduce a new technique to optimize a linear cost function subject to a one-dimensional affine homogeneous quadratic integral inequality, i.e., the requirement that a homogeneous quadratic integral functional, affine in the…
In this paper, we will present a generalization for a minimization problem from I. Daubechies, M. Defrise, and C. Demol [3]. This generalization is useful for solving many practical problems in which more than one constraint are involved.…
We consider the problem of efficiently solving large-scale linear least squares problems that have one or more linear constraints that must be satisfied exactly. Whilst some classical approaches are theoretically well founded, they can face…
Finding a Z-eigenpair of a symmetric tensor is equivalent to finding a KKT point of a sphere constrained minimization problem. Based on this equivalency, in this paper, we first propose a class of iterative methods to get a Z-eigenpair of a…
New iterative methods for solving linear equations are presented that are easy to use, generalize good existing methods, and appear to be faster. The new algorithms mix two kinds of linear recurrence formulas. Older methods have either high…
We show that the problem to decide whether two (convex) polytopes, given by their vertex-facet incidences, are combinatorially isomorphic is graph isomorphism complete, even for simple or simplicial polytopes. On the other hand, we give a…
This two-part paper is concerned with the problem of minimizing a linear objective function subject to a bilinear matrix inequality (BMI) constraint. In this part, we first consider a family of convex relaxations which transform BMI…
