In this paper we propose a quadratically convergent algorithm for finding the largest eigenvalue of a nonnegative homogeneous polynomial map where the Newton method is used to solve an equivalent system of nonlinear equations. The semi-symmetric tensor is introduced to reveal the relation...

In this paper, we propose a structured trust-region algorithm combining with filter technique to minimize the sum of two general functions with general constraints. Specifically, the new iterates are generated in the Gauss-Seidel type iterative procedure, whose sizes are controlled by a...

The problem of finding the best rank-one approximation to higher-order tensors has extensive engineering and statistical applications. It is well-known that this problem is equivalent to a homogeneous polynomial optimization problem. In this paper, we study theoretical results and numerical...

Space tensors appear in physics and mechanics. Mathematically, they are tensors in the three-dimensional Euclidean space. In the research area of diffusion magnetic resonance imaging, convex optimization problems are formed where higher order positive semi-definite space tensors are involved. In...

This paper presents a new nonlinear programming problem arising in the control of power systems, called optimal power flow with transient stability constraint and variable clearing time of faults and abbreviated as OTS-VT. The OTS-VT model is converted into a implicit generalized semi-infinite...
