    This paper studies convex quadratic minimization problems in which each continuous variable is coupled with a binary indicator variable. We focus on the structured setting where the Hessian matrix of the quadratic term is positive definite and exhibits sparsity. We develop an exact parametric dynamic programming algorithm whose computational complexity depends explicitly on the treewidth … Read more

    This paper investigates convex quadratic optimization problems involving $n$ indicator variables, each associated with a continuous variable, particularly focusing on scenarios where the matrix $Q$ defining the quadratic term is positive definite and its sparsity pattern corresponds to the adjacency matrix of a tree graph. We introduce a graph-based dynamic programming algorithm that solves this … Read more
