Parabolic Relaxation for Quadratically-constrained Quadratic Programming -- Part II: Theoretical & Computational Results (2208.03625v1)

Abstract: In the first part of this work [32], we introduce a convex parabolic relaxation for quadratically-constrained quadratic programs, along with a sequential penalized parabolic relaxation algorithm to recover near-optimal feasible solutions. In this second part, we show that starting from a feasible solution or a near-feasible solution satisfying certain regularity conditions, the sequential penalized parabolic relaxation algorithm convergences to a point which satisfies Karush-Kuhn-Tucker optimality conditions. Next, we present numerical experiments on benchmark non-convex QCQP problems as well as large-scale instances of system identification problem demonstrating the efficiency of the proposed approach.
