Robust convex quadratically constrained programs

چکیده
In this paper we study robust convex quadratically constrained programs, a subset of the class of robust convex programs introduced by Ben-Tal and Nemirovski [4]. Unlike [4], our focus in this paper is to identify uncertainty structures that allow the corresponding robust quadratically constrained programs to be reformulated as second-order cone programs. We propose three classes of uncertainty sets that satisfy this criterion and present examples where these classes of uncertainty sets are natural. 1 Problem formulation A generic quadratically constrained program (QCP) is defined as follows. minimize cx subject to xQix+ 2q T i x+ γi ≤ 0, i = 1, . . . , p, (1) where the vector of decision variables x ∈ R, and the data c ∈ R, γi ∈ R, qi ∈ R and Qi ∈ Rn×n, for all i = 1, . . . , p. Note that without any loss of generality one may assume that the objective is linear. The QCP (1) is a convex optimization problem if and only if Qi o 0 for all i = 1, . . . , p, where Q o 0 denotes that the matrix Q is positive semidefinite. Suppose Q o 0. Then Q = VV for some V ∈ Rm×n and the quadratic constraint xQx ≤ −(2qTx+ γ) is equivalent to the second-order cone (SOC) constraint [2, 18, 22] ∥∥∥∥ [ 2Vx (1 + γ + 2qx) ]∥∥∥∥ ≤ 1− γ − 2q x.

متن کاملA Binarisation Approach to Non-Convex Quadratically Constrained Quadratic Programs
The global optimisation of non-convex quadratically constrained quadratic programs is a notoriously difficult problem, being not only NP-hard in the strong sense, but also very difficult in practice. We present a new heuristic approach to this problem, which enables one to obtain solutions of good quality in reasonable computing times. The heuristic consists of four phases: binarisation, convex...
متن کاملA compact variant of the QCR method for quadratically constrained quadratic 0-1 programs
Quadratic Convex Reformulation (QCR) is a technique that was originally proposed for quadratic 0-1 programs, and then extended to various other problems. It is used to convert non-convex instances into convex ones, in such a way that the bound obtained by solving the continuous relaxation of the reformulated instance is as strong as possible. In this paper, we focus on the case of quadratically...
متن کاملA Linearly Convergent Dual-Based Gradient Projection Algorithm for Quadratically Constrained Convex Minimization
This paper presents a new dual formulation for quadratically constrained convex programs (QCCP). The special structure of the derived dual problem allows to apply the gradient projection algorithm to produce a simple explicit method involving only elementary vector-matrix operations, that is proven to converge at a linear rate.
متن کاملA New Class of Alternative Theorems for SOS-Convex Inequalities and Robust Optimization∗
In this paper we present a new class of theorems of the alternative for SOS-convex inequality systems without any qualifications. This class of theorems provides an alternative equations in terms of sums of squares to the solvability of the given inequality system. A strong separation theorem for convex sets, described by convex polynomial inequalities, plays a key role in establishing the clas...
