We study a class of signomials whose positive support is the set of vertices of a simplex and which may have several negative support points in the simplex. Various groups of authors have provided an exact characterization for the global…
Consider the problem of minimizing a polynomial $f$ over a compact semialgebraic set ${\mathbf{X} \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n}$. Lasserre introduces hierarchies of semidefinite programs to approximate this hard optimization problem, based on…
In this paper, we address the effective degree bound problem for Lasserre's hierarchy of moment-sum-of-squares (SOS) relaxations in polynomial optimization involving $n$ variables. We assume that the first $n$ equality constraint…
We consider the problem of finding the global optimum of a real-valued complex polynomial on a compact set defined by real-valued complex polynomial inequalities. It reduces to solving a sequence of complex semidefinite programming…
One considers polynomial optimization problems with compact feasible set $\mathbf{\Omega}$ defined by SOS-concave polynomials $g_j$, and with a globally non-convex polynomial objective $f$. We show that if $f$ is strongly convex on…
We analyse the representation of positive polynomials in terms of Sums of Squares. We provide a quantitative version of Putinar's Positivstellensatz over a compact basic semialgebraic set S, with a new polynomial bound on the degree of the…
This work focuses on minimizing the eigenvalue of a noncommutative polynomial subject to a finite number of noncommutative polynomial inequality constraints. Based on the Helton-McCullough Positivstellensatz, the noncommutative analog of…
We present a novel, general, and unifying point of view on sparse approaches to polynomial optimization. Solving polynomial optimization problems to global optimality is a ubiquitous challenge in many areas of science and engineering.…
Certificates of non-negativity such as Putinar's Positivstellensatz have been used to obtain powerful numerical techniques to solve polynomial optimization (PO) problems. Putinar's certificate uses sum-of-squares (sos) polynomials to…
We study structured optimization problems with polynomial objective function and polynomial equality constraints. The structure comes from a multi-grading on the polynomial ring in several variables. For fixed multi-degrees we determine the…
This paper investigates the minimization of the expectation of piecewise polynomial loss functions over Wasserstein balls. This optimization problem often appears as a key sub-problem of distributionally robust optimization problems. We…
We utilize the same technique as in [arXiv:2205.04254 (2022)] to provide some representations of polynomials non-negative on a basic semi-algebraic set, defined by polynomial inequalities, under more general conditions. Based on each…
Weight optimization of frame structures with continuous cross-section parametrization is a challenging non-convex problem that has traditionally been solved by local optimization techniques. Here, we exploit its inherent semi-algebraic…
We consider polynomial optimization problems (POP) on a semialgebraic set contained in the nonnegative orthant (every POP on a compact set can be put in this format by a simple translation of the origin). Such a POP can be converted to an…
A basic closed semialgebraic subset of $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ is defined by simultaneous polynomial inequalities $p_{1}\geq 0,\ldots,p_{m}\geq 0$. We consider Lasserre's relaxation hierarchy to solve the problem of minimizing a polynomial over…
This paper studies the polynomial optimization problem whose feasible set is a union of several basic closed semialgebraic sets. We propose a unified hierarchy of Moment-SOS relaxations to solve it globally. Under some assumptions, we prove…
The standard moment-sum-of-squares (SOS) hierarchy is a powerful method for solving global polynomial optimization problems. However, its convergence relies on Putinar's Positivstellensatz, which requires the feasible set to satisfy the…
The Positivstellens\"atze of Putinar and Schm\"udgen show that any polynomial $f$ positive on a compact semialgebraic set can be represented using sums of squares. Recently, there has been large interest in proving effective versions of…
Gradient-based methods are widely used to solve various optimization problems, however, they are either constrained by local optima dilemmas, simple convex constraints, and continuous differentiability requirements, or limited to…
We propose a method for verifying that a given feasible point for a polynomial optimization problem is globally optimal. The approach relies on the Lasserre hierarchy and the result of Lasserre regarding the importance of the convexity of…
