The cubic spherical optimization problems

From MaRDI portal





The authors first show that the cubic one-spherical and two-spherical optimization problems are special cases of the three-spherical optimization problem. This fact is used to improve the bounds of a theorem. Then they reformulate the cubic two-spherical optimization problem as an NP-hard quartic optimization problem over a unit sphere. As a result of this reformulation, NP-hardness of the cubic two-spherical and three-spherical optimization problems is established.NEWLINENEWLINEIn the rest of this paper, the authors focus on the cubic three-spherical optimization problem. They show that when some matrices are simultaneously diagonalized the problem is polynomial time solvable. Then they present a relative quality bound by finding the largest singular values of matrices. Finally, a practical method for solving the cubic three-spherical optimization problem is proposed and preliminary numerical results are reported.
