Convexification of a Separable Function over a Polyhedral Ground Set

In this paper, we study the set \(\mathcal{S}^\kappa = \{ (x,y)\in\mathcal{G}\times\mathbb{R}^n : y_j = x_j^\kappa , j=1,\dots,n\}\), where \(\kappa > 1\) and the ground set \(\mathcal{G}\) is a nonempty polytope contained in \( [0,1]^n\). This nonconvex set is closely related to separable standard quadratic programming and appears as a substructure in potential-based network flow problems … Read more
