چکیده

We present efficiently verifiable sufficient conditions for the validity of specific NP-hard semi-infinite systems of semidefinite and conic quadratic constraints arising in the framework of Robust Convex Programming and demonstrate that these conditions are “tight” up to an absolute constant factor. We discuss applications in Control on the construction of a quadratic Lyapunov function for linear dynamic system under interval uncertainty.

Robust Solutions of Uncertain Quadratic and Conic-Quadratic Problems

Abstract. We consider a conic-quadratic (and in particular a quadratically constrained) optimization problem with uncertain data, known only to reside in some uncertainty set U . The robust counterpart of such a problem leads usually to an NP-hard semidefinite problem; this is the case, for example, when U is given as the intersection of ellipsoids or as an n-dimensional box. For these cases we...

Robust optimization - methodology and applications

Robust Optimization (RO) is a modeling methodology, combined with computational tools, to process optimization problems in which the data are uncertain and is only known to belong to some uncertainty set. The paper surveys the main results of RO as applied to uncertain linear, conic quadratic and semidefinite programming. For these cases, computationally tractable robust counterparts of uncerta...

Primal and dual robust counterparts of uncertain linear programs: an application to portfolio selection

This paper proposes a family of robust counterpart for uncertain linear programs (LP) which is obtained for a general definition of the uncertainty region. The relationship between uncertainty sets using norm bod-ies and their corresponding robust counterparts defined by dual norms is presented. Those properties lead us to characterize primal and dual robust counterparts. The researchers show t...

Adjustable Robust Multistage Optimization

Format (5.1.1) covers all uncertain optimization problems considered so far; moreover, in these latter problems the objective f and the right hand side F of the constraints always were bi-affine in x, ζ, (that is, affine in x when ζ is fixed, and affine in ζ, x being fixed), and K was a “simple” convex cone (a direct product of nonnegative rays/Lorentz cones/Semidefinite cones, depending on whe...

Tractable Approximations to Robust Conic Optimization Problems

In earlier proposals, the robust counterpart of conic optimization problems exhibits a lateral increase in complexity, i.e., robust linear programming problems (LPs) become second order cone problems (SOCPs), robust SOCPs become semidefinite programming problems (SDPs), and robust SDPs become NP-hard. We propose a relaxed robust counterpart for general conic optimization problems that (a) prese...
