In this paper, we propose two sets of theoretically filtered bound-factor constraints for constructing reformulation-linearization technique (RLT)-based linear programming (LP) relaxations for solving polynomial programming problems. We establish related theoretical results for convergence to a global optimum for these reduced sized relaxations, and provide insights into their relative sizes and tightness. Extensive computational results are provided to demonstrate the relative effectiveness of the proposed theoretical filtering strategies in comparison to the standard RLT and a prior heuristic filtering technique using problems from the literature as well as randomly generated test cases.

Hierarchies of semidefinite programs have been used to approximate or even solve polynomial programs. This approach rapidly becomes computationally expensive and is often tractable only for problems of small size. In this paper, we propose a dynamic inequality generation scheme to generate valid polynomial inequalities for general polynomial programs. When used iteratively, this scheme improves the bounds without incurring an exponential growth in the size of the relaxation. As a result, the proposed scheme is in principle scalable to large general polynomial programming problems. When all the variables of the problem are non-negative or when all the variables are binary, the general algorithm is specialized to a more efficient algorithm. In the case of binary polynomial programs, we show special cases for which the proposed scheme converges to the global optimal solution. We also present several examples illustrating the computational behavior of the scheme and provide comparisons with Lasserre's approach and, for the binary linear case, with the lift-and-project method of Balas, Ceria, and Cornu,jols.

This paper is concerned with the global optimization of polynomial programming problems of the type that arise in various location allocation, chemical process, and engineering design contexts. For such problems, we have previously presented a generic reformulation-linearization technique (RLT) to obtain global optimal solutions. We now introduce several new classes of constraints for both univariate and multivariate versions of this problem, including certain simple convex variable bounding types of restrictions that can be used to augment the basic (linear) RLT relaxation in order to yield tighter lower bounds. A constraint selection strategy is also developed to predict and generate only a useful subset of these constraints, so that the size of the resulting relaxation remains manageable. These relaxations are embedded within a globally convergent branch-and-bound algorithm that additionally incorporates certain range-reduction strategies and a new branching variable selection procedure. Computational results using various chemical process, pooling, and engineering design problems from the literature are also presented to demonstrate the viability of the proposed approach.

The mixed integer polynomial programming problem is reformulated as a multi-parametric programming problem by relaxing integer variables as continuous variables and then treating them as parameters. The optimality conditions for the resulting parametric programming problem are given by a set of simultaneous parametric polynomial equations which are solved analytically to give the parametric optimal solution as a function of the relaxed integer variables. Evaluation of the parametric optimal solution for integer variables fixed at their integer values followed by screening of the evaluated solutions gives the optimal solutions. (C) 2014 The Author.

In this paper, we compare two strategies for constructing linear programming relaxations for polynomial programming problems using a Reformulation-Linearization Technique (RLT). RLT involves an automatic reformulation of the problem via the addition of certain nonlinear implied constraints that are generated by using the products of the simple bounding restrictions (among other products), and a subsequent linearization based on variable redefinitions. We prove that applying RLT directly to the original polynomial program produces a bound that dominates in the sense of being at least as tight as the value obtained when RLT is applied to the joint collection of all equivalent quadratic problems that could be constructed by recursively defining additional variables as suggested by Shor.

In this paper, we introduce a Reformulation-Linearization Technique-based open-source optimization software for solving polynomial programming problems (RLT-POS). We present algorithms and mechanisms that form the backbone of RLT-POS, including constraint filtering techniques, reduced RLT representations, and semidefinite cuts. When implemented individually, each model enhancement has been shown in previous papers to significantly improve the performance of the standard RLT procedure. However, the coordination between different model enhancement techniques becomes critical for an improved overall performance since special structures in the original formulation that work in favor of a particular technique might be lost after implementing some other model enhancement. More specifically, we discuss the coordination between (1) constraint elimination via filtering techniques and reduced RLT representations, and (2) semidefinite cuts for sparse problems. We present computational results using instances from the literature as well as randomly generated problems to demonstrate the improvement over a standard RLT implementation and to compare the performances of the software packages BARON, COUENNE, and SparsePOP with RLT-POS.

The operating frequency and the number of cores and active layers in Multi-Processor Systems-on-Chips (MPSoC) continue to increase, resulting in rising power density and operating temperature on the die. The increasing temperature reduces the system reliability and performance and increases the cooling cost. Most traditional MPSoC thermal optimization tools are based on two-dimensional planar IC thermal modeling, which is insufficient to capture the different thermal characteristics of three-dimensional(3D) MPSoCs and the behavior subjected to Dynamic Voltage and Frequency Scaling(DVFS). The recently proposed 3D optimization approach still ignores the mutual thermal impact between cores in the same layer, which reduces the precision of frequency assignment and may cause violation in the maximum temperature constraint. In this paper, we propose an approach based on polynomial programming that addresses the problem of processor frequency assignment in 3D MPSoC system, such that the total system performance can be maximized as well as the temperature and power constraints are met for all time instances. We also compare the performance improvement of DVFS in 3D MPSoC with that in 2D MPSoC, studying the importance of intra-layer temperature correlation in 3D MPSoC.

In this paper we study necessary optimality conditions for the problem of minimizing a polynomial function over a set defined by polynomial inequalities. Assume that the problem is bounded below and has the Mangasarian-Fromovitz property at infinity. We first show that if the problem does not have an optimal solution, then a version at infinity of the Fritz John optimality conditions holds. From this we derive a version at infinity of the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker optimality conditions. As applications, we obtain a Frank-Wolfe type theorem which states that the optimal solution set of the problem is nonempty provided the objective function is "convenient." Finally, in the unconstrained case, we show that the optimal value of the problem is the smallest critical value of some polynomial. All the results are presented in terms of the Newton polyhedra of the polynomials defining the problem.

This paper presents anew approach to quadrify a polynomial programming problem, i.e. reduce the polynomial program to a quadratic program, before solving it. The proposed approach, QUAD-RLT, exploits the Reformulation-Linearization Technique (RLT) structure to obtain smaller relaxations that can be solved faster and still provide high quality bounds. QUAD-RLT is compared to other quadrification techniques that have been previously discussed in the literature. The paper presents theoretical as well as computational results showing the advantage of QUAD-RLT compared to other quadrification techniques. Furthermore, rather than quadrifying a polynomial program, QUAD-RLT is generalized to reduce the degree of the polynomial to any degree. Computational results show that reducing the degree of the polynomial to a degree that is higher than two provides computational advantages in certain cases compared to fully quadrifying the problem. Finally, QUAD-RLT along with other quadrification/degree reduction schemes are implemented and made available in the freely available software RAPOSa.
