In this paper, we describe how to reformulate a problem that has second-order cone and/or semidefiniteness constraints in
order to solve it using a general-purpose interior-point algorithm for nonlinear programming. The resulting problems are smooth
and convex, and numerical results from the DIMACS Implementation Challenge problems and SDPLib are provided.

We consider stochastic programming problems with probabilistic constraints involving random variables with discrete distributions.
They can be reformulated as large scale mixed integer programming problems with knapsack constraints. Using specific properties
of stochastic programming problems and bounds on the probability of the union of events we develop new valid inequalities
for these mixed integer programming problems. We also develop methods for lifting these inequalities. These procedures are
used in a general iterative algorithm for solving probabilistically constrained problems. The results are illustrated with
a numerical example.

We present and study a mixed integer programming model that arises as a substructure in many industrial applications. This
model generalizes a number of structured MIP models previously studied, and it provides a relaxation of various capacitated
production planning problems and other fixed charge network flow problems. We analyze the polyhedral structure of the convex
hull of this model, as well as of a strengthened LP relaxation. Among other results, we present valid inequalities that induce
facets of the convex hull under certain conditions. We also discuss how to strengthen these inequalities by using known results
for lifting valid inequalities for 0–1 continuous knapsack problems.

In this paper we consider stochastic programming problems where the objective function is given as an expected value of a
convex piecewise linear random function. With an optimal solution of such a problem we associate a condition number which
characterizes well or ill conditioning of the problem. Using theory of Large Deviations we show that the sample size needed
to calculate the optimal solution of such problem with a given probability is approximately proportional to the condition
number.

A nonlinear programming algorithm for solving semidefinite programs via low-rank factorization 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
In this paper, we present a nonlinear programming algorithm for solving semidefinite programs (SDPs) in standard form. The
algorithm's distinguishing feature is a change of variables that replaces the symmetric, positive semidefinite variable X of the SDP with a rectangular variable R according to the factorization X=RR
T
. The rank of the factorization, i.e., the number of columns of R, is chosen minimally so as to enhance computational speed while maintaining equivalence with the SDP. Fundamental results
concerning the convergence of the algorithm are derived, and encouraging computational results on some large-scale test problems
are also presented.

In the vicinity of a solution of a nonlinear programming problem at which both strict complementarity and linear independence
of the active constraints may fail to hold, we describe a technique for distinguishing weakly active from strongly active
constraints. We show that this information can be used to modify the sequential quadratic programming algorithm so that it
exhibits superlinear convergence to the solution under assumptions weaker than those made in previous analyses.

This paper addresses the question of decomposing an infinite family of rational polyhedra in an integer fashion. It is shown
that there is a finite subset of this family that generates the entire family. Moreover, an integer analogue of Carathéodory's
theorem carries over to this general setting. The integer decomposition of a family of polyhedra has some applications in
integer and mixed integer programming, including a test set approach to mixed integer programming.

This is an expository paper about the analysis of variational conditions over sets defined in finite-dimensional spaces by
fairly smooth functions satisfying a constraint qualification. The primary focus is on results that can provide quantitative
and computable sensitivity information for particular instances of the problems under study, and our objective is to give
a personal view of the state of current knowledge in this area and of gaps in that knowledge that require future work. The
writing style is informal, in keeping with the objective of focusing the reader's attention on the basic concepts and the
relationships between them, rather than on details of the particular results themselves.

The paper presents a branch-and-cut for solving (0, 1) integer linear programs having a large symmetry group. The group is
used for pruning the enumeration tree and for generating cuts. The cuts are non-standard, cutting integer feasible solutions
but leaving the optimal value of the problem unchanged. Pruning and cut generation are performed by backtracking procedures
using a Schreier-Sims table for representing the group. Applications to hard set covering problems and to the generation of
covering designs and error correcting codes are presented.

Semidefinite programming relaxations for semialgebraic problems 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15

A hierarchy of convex relaxations for semialgebraic problems is introduced. For questions reducible to a finite number of
polynomial equalities and inequalities, it is shown how to construct a complete family of polynomially sized semidefinite
programming conditions that prove infeasibility. The main tools employed are a semidefinite programming formulation of the
sum of squares decomposition for multivariate polynomials, and some results from real algebraic geometry. The techniques provide
a constructive approach for finding bounded degree solutions to the Positivstellensatz, and are illustrated with examples
from diverse application fields.

In this paper we address a general Goal Programming problem with linear objectives, convex constraints, and an arbitrary
componentwise nondecreasing norm to aggregate deviations with respect to targets. In particular, classical Linear Goal Programming
problems, as well as several models in Location and Regression Analysis are modeled within this framework.
In spite of its generality, this problem can be analyzed from a geometrical and a computational viewpoint, and a unified solution
methodology can be given. Indeed, a dual is derived, enabling us to describe the set of optimal solutions geometrically. Moreover,
Interior-Point methods are described which yield an $\varepsilon$-optimal solution in polynomial time.

We revise the Volume Algorithm (VA) for linear programming and relate it to bundle methods. When first introduced, VA was
presented as a subgradient-like method for solving the original problem in its dual form. In a way similar to the serious/null
steps philosophy of bundle methods, VA produces green, yellow or red steps. In order to give convergence results, we introduce
in VA a precise measure for the improvement needed to declare a green or serious step. This addition yields a revised formulation
(RVA) that is halfway between VA and a specific bundle method, that we call BVA. We analyze the convergence properties of
both RVA and BVA. Finally, we compare the performance of the modified algorithms versus VA on a set of Rectilinear Steiner
problems of various sizes and increasing complexity, derived from real world VLSI design instances.

In this paper, we survey the most recent methods that have been developed for the solution of semidefinite programs. We first
concentrate on the methods that have been primarily motivated by the interior point (IP) algorithms for linear programming,
putting special emphasis in the class of primal-dual path-following algorithms. We also survey methods that have been developed
for solving large-scale SDP problems. These include first-order nonlinear programming (NLP) methods and more specialized path-following
IP methods which use the (preconditioned) conjugate gradient or residual scheme to compute the Newton direction and the notion
of matrix completion to exploit data sparsity.

The matrix variables in a primal-dual pair of semidefinite programs are getting increasingly ill-conditioned as they approach
a complementary solution. Multiplying the primal matrix variable with a vector from the eigenspace of the non-basic part will
therefore result in heavy numerical cancellation. This effect is amplified by the scaling operation in interior point methods.
A complete example illustrates these numerical issues. In order to avoid numerical problems in interior point methods, we
propose to maintain the matrix variables in a Cholesky form. We discuss how the factors of the v-space Cholesky form can be updated after a main iteration of the interior point method with Nesterov-Todd scaling. An analogue
for second order cone programming is also developed. Numerical results demonstrate the success of this approach.

The relation of time indexed formulations of nonpreemptive single machine scheduling problems to the node packing problem
is established and then used to provide simple and intuitive alternate proofs of validity and maximality for previously known
results on the facial structure of the scheduling problem. Previous work on the facial structure has focused on describing
the convex hull of the set of feasible partial schedules, schedules in which not all jobs have to be started. The equivalence
between the characteristic vectors of this set and those of the set of feasible node packings in a graph whose structure is
determined by the parameters of the scheduling problem is established. The main contribution of this paper is to show that
the facet inducing inequalities for the convex hull of the set of feasible partial schedules that have integral coefficients
and right hand side 1 or 2 are the maximal clique inequalities and the maximally and sequentially lifted 5-hole inequalities
of the convex hull of the set of feasible node packings in this graph respectively.

The stability number α(G) for a given graph G is the size of a maximum stable set in G. The Lovász theta number provides an upper bound on α(G) and can be computed in polynomial time as the optimal value of the Lovász semidefinite program. In this paper, we show that
restricting the matrix variable in the Lovász semidefinite program to be rank-one and rank-two, respectively, yields a pair
of continuous, nonlinear optimization problems each having the global optimal value α(G). We propose heuristics for obtaining large stable sets in G based on these new formulations and present computational results indicating the effectiveness of the heuristics.

On implementing a primal-dual interior-point method for conic quadratic optimization 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Based on the work of the Nesterov and Todd on self-scaled cones an implementation of a primal-dual interior-point method
for solving large-scale sparse conic quadratic optimization problems is presented. The main features of the implementation
are it is based on a homogeneous and self-dual model, it handles rotated quadratic cones directly, it employs a Mehrotra type
predictor-corrector extension and sparse linear algebra to improve the computational efficiency. Finally, the implementation
exploits fixed variables which naturally occurs in many conic quadratic optimization problems. This is a novel feature for
our implementation. Computational results are also presented to document that the implementation can solve very large problems
robustly and efficiently.

In Part I of this series of articles, we introduced a general framework of exploiting the aggregate sparsity pattern over
all data matrices of large scale and sparse semidefinite programs (SDPs) when solving them by primal-dual interior-point methods.
This framework is based on some results about positive semidefinite matrix completion, and it can be embodied in two different
ways. One is by a conversion of a given sparse SDP having a large scale positive semidefinite matrix variable into an SDP
having multiple but smaller positive semidefinite matrix variables. The other is by incorporating a positive definite matrix
completion itself in a primal-dual interior-point method. The current article presents the details of their implementations.
We introduce new techniques to deal with the sparsity through a clique tree in the former method and through new computational
formulae in the latter one. Numerical results over different classes of SDPs show that these methods can be very efficient
for some problems.

We introduce a new upper bound for the maximum-entropy sampling problem. Our bound is described as the solution of a linear
integer program. The bound depends on a partition of the underlying set of random variables. For the case in which each block
of the partition has bounded cardinality, we describe an efficient dynamic-programming algorithm to calculate the bound. For
the very special case in which the blocks have no more than two elements, we describe an efficient algorithm for calculating
the bound based on maximum-weight matching. This latter formulation has particular value for local-search procedures that
seek to find a good partition. We relate our bound to recent bounds of Hoffman, Lee and Williams. Finally, we report on the
results of some computational experiments.
