    This paper systematically surveys useful properties of the epigraph reformulation for optimization problems, and complements them by some new results. We focus on the complete compatibility of the original formulation and the epigraph reformulation with respect to solvability and unsolvability, the compatibility with respect to some, but not all, basic constraint qualifications, the formulation of … Read more

    We study the equivalence of several well-known sufficient optimality conditions for a general quadratically constrained quadratic program (QCQP). The conditions are classified in two categories. The first one is for determining an optimal solution and the second one is for finding an optimal value. The first category of conditions includes the existence of a saddle … Read more
