First- and second-order optimality conditions for second-order cone and semidefinite programming under a constant rank condition

The well known constant rank constraint qualification [Math. Program. Study 21:110–126, 1984] introduced by Janin for nonlinear programming has been recently extended to a conic context by exploiting the eigenvector structure of the problem. In this paper we propose a more general and geometric approach for defining a new extension of this condition to the … Read more

A support tool for planning classrooms considering social distancing between students

In this paper, we present the online tool salaplanejada.unifesp.br developed to assist the layout planning of classrooms considering the social distance in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. We address both the allocation problem in rooms where seats are fixed as well as the problem in rooms where seats can be moved freely. For the … Read more

Naive constant rank-type constraint qualifications for multifold second-order cone programming and semidefinite programming

The constant rank constraint qualification, introduced by Janin in 1984 for nonlinear programming, has been extensively used for sensitivity analysis, global convergence of first- and second-order algorithms, and for computing the derivative of the value function. In this paper we discuss naive extensions of constant rank-type constraint qualifications to second-order cone programming and semidefinite programming, … Read more
