abstract

We study continuous quadratic submodular minimization with bounds and propose a polynomially sized semidefinite relaxation, which is provably tight for dimension $n \le 3$ and empirically tight for larger $n$. We apply the relaxation to two moment problems arising in distributionally robust optimization and the computation of covariance bounds. Accordingly, this research advances the ongoing study of continuous submodular minimization and opens new application areas therein.

A second-order cone representable class of nonconvex quadratic programs

math.OC · 2025-08-25 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

The authors give sufficient conditions for the convex hull of a lifted sparse nonconvex quadratic program over the unit hypercube to be SOC-representable and identify structural cases yielding a polynomial-size SOC formulation whose optimum matches the original problem.
