Nonlinear bad constraints

I have an optimization problem with linear objective function. The constraints are in two different groups. The first set of constraints are linear while the second set is nonlinear. The nonlinear con …

Semidefinite programming

I have a convex optimization problem that is essentially a linear objective function over some linear constraints and also a semidefinite matrix in the following form: $ M= \left[ …

Feasibility checking

Consider the following optimization problem: $Min\;\;\; CX$ $AX\geq b$ $x_ix_j= x_s x_t\;\;\; i\neq j \neq s\neq t$ $x_j\geq 0;$ Where $A$ is the adjacency matrix and $C$ is a constant vector. …

Polynomial solvability [duplicate]

Consider the following optimization problem: Min$_{x}$ $\qquad \sum_{(i,j,t,s)\in I_r}||x_ix_j-x_tx_s||^2$ S.t.: $\qquad x\in \mathcal{C} ;$ where $x=(x_1,x_2,...x_n)$ and $\quad x_j\geq 0\;\; j …

Reduction for NP-hardness [duplicate]

Consider the following optimization problem: \begin{align} \text{Min}_{i\neq j\neq s\neq t} |x_i x_j-x_sx_t|\\ s.t: Ax=b\\ x\geq 0; \end{align} This problem can be seen as an instance of non convex …

Nonconvex Optimization

Consider the following optimization problem: $\text{max}_{p} \quad ||p||^2 \\ s.t: x\geq 0\\ p\in D$ where $D$ is a convex set. Is this problem $\mathcal{NP}$-hard?
