On polyhedral and second-order cone decompositions of semidefinite optimization problems

We study a cutting-plane method for semidefinite optimization problems, and supply a proof of the method's convergence, under a boundedness assumption. By relating the method's rate of convergence to an initial outer approximation's diameter, we argue the method performs well when ini...

520 |a We study a cutting-plane method for semidefinite optimization problems, and supply a proof of the method's convergence, under a boundedness assumption. By relating the method's rate of convergence to an initial outer approximation's diameter, we argue the method performs well when initialized with a second-order cone approximation, instead of a linear approximation. We invoke the method to provide bound gaps of 0.5-6.5% for sparse PCA problems with 1000s of covariates, and solve nuclear norm problems over 500 × 500 matrices.
