Conjectures on an algorithm for convex parametric quadratic programs
نویسندگان
چکیده
An algorithm for convex parametric QPs is studied. The algorithm explores the parameter space by stepping a sufficiently small distance over the facets of each critical region and thereby identifying the neighboring regions. Some conjectures concerning this algorithm and the structure of the solution of a parametric QP are presented.

In this paper, we propose a feasible interior-point method for convex quadratic programming over symmetric cones. The proposed algorithm relaxes the accuracy requirements in the solution of the Newton equation system, by using an inexact Newton direction. Furthermore, we obtain an acceptable level of error in the inexact algorithm on convex quadratic symmetric cone programmin...
متن کاملAn Interior Point Algorithm for Solving Convex Quadratic Semidefinite Optimization Problems Using a New Kernel Function
In this paper, we consider convex quadratic semidefinite optimization problems and provide a primal-dual Interior Point Method (IPM) based on a new kernel function with a trigonometric barrier term. Iteration complexity of the algorithm is analyzed using some easy to check and mild conditions. Although our proposed kernel function is neither a Self-Regular (SR) fun...
متن کاملA Global Optimization Method for Solving Convex Quadratic Bilevel Programming Problems
We use the merit function technique to formulate a linearly constrained bilevel convex quadratic problem as a convex program with an additional convex-d.c. constraint. To solve the latter problem we approximate it by convex programs with an additional convex-concave constraint using an adaptive simplicial subdivision. This approximation leads to a branch-and-bound algorithm for finding a global...
متن کاملThe Facet-to-Facet Property of Solutions to Convex Parametric Quadratic Programs and a new Exploration Strategy
In some of the recently-developed algorithms for convex parametric quadratic programs it is implicitly assumed that the intersection of the closures of two adjacent critical regions is a facet of both closures; this will be referred to as the facet-to-facet property. It is shown by an example, whose solution is unique, that the facet-to-facet property does not hold in general, and consequently,...
