We consider low-rank semidefinite programming (LRSDP) relaxations of ±1 quadratic problems that can be formulated as the nonconvex nonlinear programming problem of minimizing a quadratic function subject to separable quadratic equality constraints. We prove the equivalence of the LRSDP problem...

A standard quadratic optimization problem (StQP) consists of nding the largest or smallest value of a (possibly indenite) quadratic form over the standard simplex which is the intersection of a hyperplane with the positive orthant. This NP-hard problem has several immediate real-world...

In this work we define a block decomposition Jacobi-type method for nonlinear optimization problems with one linear constraint and bound constraints on the variables. We prove convergence of the method to stationary points of the problem under quite general assumptions.

We propose a branch-and-bound algorithm for minimizing a not necessarily convex quadratic function over integer variables. The algorithm is based on lower bounds computed as continuous minima of the objective function over appropriate ellipsoids. In the nonconvex case, we use ellipsoids...
