Computational advances in polynomial optimization: RAPOSa, a freely available global solver

In this paper we introduce RAPOSa, a global optimization solver specifically designed for (continuous) polynomial programming problems with box-constrained variables. Written entirely in C++, RAPOSa is based on the Reformulation-Linearization Technique developed by Sherali and Tuncbilek (1992) and subsequently improved in Sherali et al. (2012a), Sherali et al. (2012b) and Dalkiran and Sherali (2013). We … Read more
