The Algebraic Structure of the Nonconvex Second-Order Cone

This paper explores the nonconvex second-order cone as a nonconvex conic extension of the known convex second-order cone in optimization, as well as a higher-dimensional conic extension of the known causality cone in relativity. The nonconvex second-order cone can be used to reformulate nonconvex quadratic programming and nonconvex quadratically constrained quadratic program in conic format. … Read more
