This paper extends the SQP-approach of the well-known bundle-Newton method for nonsmooth unconstrained minimization to the nonlinearly constrained case. Instead of using a penalty function or a filter or an improvement function to deal with…
A sequential quadratic programming (SQP) algorithm is designed for nonsmooth optimization problems with upper-C^2 objective functions. Upper-C^2 functions are locally equivalent to difference-of-convex (DC) functions with smooth convex…
In this paper, we study the generalized problem that minimizes or maximizes a multi-order complex quadratic form with constant-modulus constraints on all elements of its optimization variable. Such a mathematical problem is commonly…
We propose a sequential quadratic programming (SQP) algorithm for inequality constrained optimization that is robust to the presence of bounded noise in function and derivative evaluations. We cover the case where constraint evaluations…
Physical design refers to mathematical optimization of a desired objective (e.g. strong light--matter interactions, or complete quantum state transfer) subject to the governing dynamical equations, such as Maxwell's or Schrodinger's…
The multichannel generalization of the theory of spectral, scattering and decay control is presented. New universal algorithms of construction of complex quantum systems with given properties are suggested. Particularly, transformations of…
Quadratically constrained quadratic programming (QCQP) has long been recognized as a computationally challenging problem, particularly in large-scale or high-dimensional settings where solving it directly becomes intractable. The complexity…
Modeling parts of an optimization problem as an optimal value function that depends on a top-level decision variable is a regular occurrence in optimization and an essential ingredient for methods such as Benders Decomposition. It often…

We propose an SQP algorithm for mathematical programs with vanishing constraints which solves at each iteration a quadratic program with linear vanishing constraints. The algorithm is based on the newly developed concept of $\mathcal…
A unified model is addressed for general optimization problems in multi-scale complex systems. Based on necessary conditions and basic principles in physics, the canonical duality-triality theory is presented in a precise way to include…
We investigate Lagrangian duality for nonconvex optimization problems. To this aim we use the $\Phi$-convexity theory and minimax theorem for $\Phi$-convex functions. We provide conditions for zero duality gap and strong duality. Among the…
A quadratically constrained quadratic program (QCQP) is an optimization problem in which the objective function is a quadratic function and the feasible region is defined by quadratic constraints. Solving non-convex QCQP to global…
Quadratically constrained quadratic programs (QCQPs) are ubiquitous in optimization: Such problems arise in applications from operations research, power systems, signal processing, chemical engineering, and portfolio theory, among others.…
Hidden convexity is a powerful idea in optimization: under the right transformations, nonconvex problems that are seemingly intractable can be solved efficiently using convex optimization. We introduce the notion of a Lagrangian dual…

By applying the perturbation function approach, we propose the Lagrangian and the conjugate duals for minimization problems of the sum of two, generally nonconvex, functions. The main tools are the $\Phi$-convexity theory and minimax…
A problem of the erroneous duality gap caused by the presence of symmetries is solved in this paper utilizing point group theory. The optimization problems are first divided into two classes based on their predisposition to suffer from this…
An earlier work [18] proposes a method for solving the Lagrangian dual of a constrained binary quadratic programming problem via quantum adiabatic evolution using an outer approximation method. This should be an efficient prescription for…
