Eigenvalue analysis of constrained minimization problem for homogeneous polynomial

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: In this paper, the concepts of Pareto H-eigenvalue and Pareto Z-eigenvalue are introduced for studying constrained minimization problem and the necessary and sufficient conditions of such eigenvalues are given. It is proved that a symmetric tensor has at least one Pareto H-eigenvalue (Pareto Z-eigenvalue). Furthermore, the minimum Pareto H-eigenvalue (or Pareto Z-eigenvalue) of a symmetric tensor is exactly equal to the minimum value of constrained minimization problem of homogeneous polynomial deduced by such a tensor, which gives an alternative methods for solving the minimum value of constrained minimization problem. In particular, a symmetric tensor mathcalA is copositive if and only if every Pareto H-eigenvalue (Z−eigenvalue) of mathcalA is non-negative.


The paper is dedicated to the study of constrained minimization problems and, using the concepts of the Pareto \(H\)-eigenvalue and the Pareto \(Z\)-eigenvalue, to the derivation of the necessary and sufficient conditions of such eigenvalues. It is shown that ``a symmetric tensor has at least one Pareto \(H\)-eigenvalue (Pareto \(Z\)-eigenvalue) and that ``the minimum Pareto \(H\)-eigenvalue (or Pareto \(Z\)-eigenvalue) of a symmetric tensor is exactly equal to the minimum value of the constrained minimization problem of the homogeneous polynomial deduced by such a tensor. This result may be used as ``an alternative method for solving the minimum value of the constrained minimization problem. ``As a corollary, a symmetric tensor \(\mathcal A\) is copositive if and only if every Pareto \(H\)-eigenvalue (\(Z\)-eigenvalue) of \(\mathcal A\) is nonnegative and \(\mathcal A\) is strictly copositive if and only if every Pareto \(H\)-eigenvalue (\(Z\)-eigenvalue) of \(\mathcal A\) is positive.
