The first heuristic specifically for mixed-integer second-order cone optimization

Mixed-integer second-order cone optimization (MISOCO) has become very popular in the last decade. Various aspects of solving these problems in Branch and Conic Cut (BCC) algorithms have been studied in the literature. This study aims to fill a gap and provide a novel way to find feasible solutions early in the BCC algorithm. Such solutions … Read more

Warm-start of interior point methods for second order cone optimization via rounding over optimal Jordan frames

Interior point methods (IPM) are the most popular approaches to solve Second Order Cone Optimization (SOCO) problems, due to their theoretical polynomial complexity and practical performance. In this paper, we present a warm-start method for primal-dual IPMs to reduce the number of IPM steps needed to solve SOCO problems that appear in a Branch and … Read more
