Algebraic boundaries of convex semi-algebraic sets

چکیده
We study the algebraic boundary of a convex semi-algebraic set via duality in convex and algebraic geometry. We generalise the correspondence of facets of a polytope with the vertices of the dual polytope to general semi-algebraic convex sets. In this case, exceptional families of extreme points might exist and we characterise them semi-algebraically. We also give a strategy for computing a complete list of exceptional families, given the algebraic boundary of the dual convex set.

Analysis of the convergence rate for the cyclic projection algorithm applied to semi-algebraic convex sets
In this paper, we study the rate of convergence of the cyclic projection algorithm applied to finitely many semi-algebraic convex sets. We establish an explicit convergence rate estimate which relies on the maximum degree of the polynomials that generate the semi-algebraic convex sets and the dimension of the underlying space. We achieve our results by exploiting the algebraic structure of the ...

متن کاملConvergence of the Lasserre hierarchy of SDP relaxations for convex polynomial programs without compactness
The Lasserre hierarchy of semidefinite programming (SDP) relaxations is a powerful scheme for solving polynomial optimization problems with compact semi-algebraic sets. In this paper, we show that, for convex polynomial optimization, the Lasserre hierarchy with a slightly extended quadratic module always converges asymptotically even in the case of non-compact semi-algebraic feasible sets. We d...
متن کاملA Method for Solving Convex Quadratic Programming Problems Based on Differential-algebraic equations
In this paper, a new model based on differential-algebraic equations(DAEs) for solving convex quadratic programming(CQP) problems is proposed. It is proved that the new approach is guaranteed to generate optimal solutions for this class of optimization problems. This paper also shows that the conventional interior point methods for solving (CQP) problems can be viewed as a special case of the n...
متن کاملA convex combinatorial property of compact sets in the plane and its roots in lattice theory
K. Adaricheva and M. Bolat have recently proved that if $,mathcal U_0$ and $,mathcal U_1$ are circles in a triangle with vertices $A_0,A_1,A_2$, then there exist $jin {0,1,2}$ and $kin{0,1}$ such that $,mathcal U_{1-k}$ is included in the convex hull of $,mathcal U_kcup({A_0,A_1, A_2}setminus{A_j})$. One could say disks instead of circles.Here we prove the existence of such a $j$ and $k$ ...
