چکیده

We present a new positive lower bound for the minimum value taken by a polynomial P with integer coefficients in k variables over the standard simplex of R, assuming that P is positive on the simplex. This bound depends only on the number of variables k, the degree d and the bitsize τ of the coefficients of P and improves all previous bounds for arbitrary polynomials which are positive over the simplex.

A bound on the minimum of a real positive polynomial over the standard simplex

We consider the problem of bounding away from 0 the minimum value m taken by a polynomial P ∈ Z [X1, . . . , Xk] over the standard simplex ∆ ⊂ R, assuming that m > 0. Recent algorithmic developments in real algebraic geometry enable us to obtain a positive lower bound on m in terms of the dimension k, the degree d and the bitsize τ of the coefficients of P . The bound is explicit, and obtained ...

On the complexity of optimization over the standard simplex

We review complexity results for minimizing polynomials over the standard simplex and unit hypercube. In addition, we derive new results on the computational complexity of approximating the minimum of some classes of functions (including Lipschitz continuous functions) on the standard simplex. The main tools used in the analysis are Bernstein approximation and Lagrange interpolation on the simp...

A PTAS for the minimization of polynomials of fixed degree over the simplex

Abstract. We consider the problem of computing the minimum value pmin taken by a polynomial p(x) of degree d over the standard simplex ∆. This is an NP-hard problem already for degree d = 2. For any integer k ≥ 1, by minimizing p(x) over the set of rational points in ∆ with denominator k, one obtains a hierarchy of upper bounds p∆(k) converging to pmin as k −→ ∞. These upper approximations are ...
