SDP reformulation for robust optimization problems based on nonconvex QP duality
نویسندگان
چکیده
In a real situation, optimization problems often involve uncertain parameters. Robust optimization is one of distribution-free methodologies based on worst-case analyses for handling such problems. In this paper, we first focus on a special class of uncertain linear programs (LPs). Applying the duality theory for nonconvex quadratic programs (QPs), we reformulate the robust counterpart as a semidefinite program (SDP) and show the equivalence property under mild assumptions. We also apply the same technique to the uncertain second-order cone programs (SOCPs) with “single” (not side-wise) ellipsoidal uncertainty. Then we derive similar results on the reformulation and the equivalence property. In the numerical experiments, we solve some test problems to demonstrate the efficiency of our reformulation approach. Especially, we compare our approach with another recent method based on Hildebrand’s Lorentz positivity.

Semidefinite programming versus the reformulation-linearization technique for nonconvex quadratically constrained quadratic programming
We consider relaxations for nonconvex quadratically constrained quadratic programming (QCQP) based on semidefinite programming (SDP) and the reformulation-linearization technique (RLT). From a theoretical standpoint we show that the addition of a semidefiniteness condition removes a substantial portion of the feasible region corresponding to product terms in the RLT relaxation. On test problems...
متن کاملBenson's algorithm for nonconvex multiobjective problems via nonsmooth Wolfe duality
In this paper, we propose an algorithm to obtain an approximation set of the (weakly) nondominated points of nonsmooth multiobjective optimization problems with equality and inequality constraints. We use an extension of the Wolfe duality to construct the separating hyperplane in Benson's outer algorithm for multiobjective programming problems with subdifferentiable functions. We also fo...
متن کاملNecessary and sufficient global optimality conditions for NLP reformulations of linear SDP problems
In this paper we consider the standard linear SDP problem, and its low rank nonlinear programming reformulation, based on a Gramian representation of a positive semidefinite matrix. For this nonconvex quadratic problem with quadratic equality constraints, we give necessary and sufficient conditions of global optimality expressed in terms of the Lagrangian function.
متن کاملTrust-region problems with linear inequality constraints: exact SDP relaxation, global optimality and robust optimization
The trust-region problem, which minimizes a nonconvex quadratic function over a ball, is a key subproblem in trust-region methods for solving nonlinear optimization problems. It enjoys many attractive properties such as exact semidefinite linear programming relaxation (SDP-relaxation) and strong duality. Unfortunately, such properties do not, in general, hold for an extended trust-region proble...
متن کاملSecond-order cone programming
Second-order cone programming (SOCP) problems are convex optimization problems in which a linear function is minimized over the intersection of an affine linear manifold with the Cartesian product of second-order (Lorentz) cones. Linear programs, convex quadratic programs and quadratically constrained convex quadratic programs can all be formulated as SOCP problems, as can many other problems t...
