We present an efficient algorithm for solving fractional programming problems whose objective functions are the ratio of a low-rank quadratic to a positive definite quadratic with convex constraints. The proposed algorithm for these…

Recently, the prediction-correction method has been developed to solve nonlinear convex optimization problems. However, its convergence rate is often poor since large regularization parameters are set to ensure convergence conditions. In…

We consider certificates of positivity for univariate polynomials with rational coefficients that are positive over (an interval of)~$\mathbb{R}$. Such certificates take the form of weighted sums of squares (SOS) of polynomials with…

This paper studies robust solutions and semidefinite linear programming (SDP) relaxations of a class of convex polynomial programs in the face of data uncertainty. The class of convex programs, called robust SOS-convex programs, includes…

This paper studies generalized semi-infinite programs (GSIPs) given by polynomials. We propose a hierarchy of polynomial optimization relaxations to solve them. They are based on Lagrange multiplier expressions and polynomial extensions.…

This paper presents a canonical dual approach to the problem of minimizing the sum of a quadratic function and the ratio of nonconvex function and quadratic functions, which is a type of non-convex optimization problem subject to an…

This paper is devoted to the stability analysis of spatially interconnected systems (SISs) via the sum-of-squares (SOS) decomposition of positive trigonometric polynomials. For each spatial direction of SISs, three types of interconnected…

The moment-sum of squares hierarchy by Lasserre has become an established technique for solving polynomial optimization problems. It provides a monotonically increasing series of tight bounds, but has well-known scalability limitations. For…

Finding the minimum of a multivariate real polynomial is a well-known hard problem with various applications. We present a polynomial time algorithm to approximate such lower bounds via sums of nonnegative circuit polynomials (SONC). As a…

To prove that a polynomial is nonnegative on R^n one can try to show that it is a sum of squares of polynomials (SOS). The latter problem is now known to be reducible to a semidefinite programming (SDP) computation much faster than…

We introduce a novel approach to reduce the computational effort of solving mixed-integer convex chance constrained programs through the scenario approach. Instead of reducing the number of required scenarios, we directly minimize the…

In this paper, we introduce a new class of structured polynomials, called separable plus lower degree (SPLD) polynomials. The formal definition of an SPLD polynomial, which extends the concept of SPQ polynomials (Ahmadi et al. in Math Oper…

This paper presents a distributed algorithm in the CONGEST model that achieves a $(1+\epsilon)$-approximation for row-sparse fractional covering problems (RS-FCP) and the dual column-sparse fraction packing problems (CS-FPP). Compared with…

We consider the problem of computing exact sums of squares (SOS) decompositions for certain classes of non-negative multivariate polynomials, relying on semidefinite programming (SDP) solvers. We provide a hybrid numeric-symbolic algorithm…

In the present paper, we first establish a version of the abstract lower and upper-solution method for our class of operators. In this sense, we investigated the main objective of this paper, that is, the existence of a positive solution…

The theory of viscosity solutions has been effective for representing and approximating weak solutions to fully nonlinear Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) such as the elliptic Monge-Amp\`ere equation. The approximation theory of…

We consider a new hierarchy of semidefinite relaxations for the general polynomial optimization problem $(P):\:f^{\ast}=\min \{\,f(x):x\in K\,\}$ on a compact basic semi-algebraic set $K\subset\R^n$. This hierarchy combines some advantages…

This paper is a sequel to "Computing diagonal form and Jacobson normal form of a matrix using Groebner bases", J. of Symb. Computation, 46 (5), 2011. We present a new fraction-free algorithm for the computation of a diagonal form of a…

This paper presents a numerical method to solve a time-fractional Burgers equation, achieving order of convergence $(2-\alpha)$ in time, here $\alpha$ represents the order of the time derivative. The fractional derivative is modeled by…

This paper describes the Conic Operator Splitting Method (COSMO) solver, an operator splitting algorithm for convex optimisation problems with quadratic objective function and conic constraints. At each step the algorithm alternates between…
