Quadratic programming can be seen both as a general approach to linear programming and a special class of non-linear programming. Moreover, quadratic programming problems are of utmost importance in an increasing variety of practical fields, such as, regression, efficient production and portfolio selection. As ambiguity and vagueness are natural and ever-present in real-life situations requirin...

This report considers a discrete fractional quadratic optimization problem motivated by a recent application in blind maximum-likelihood (ML) detection of higher-order QAM orthogonal spacetime block codes (OSTBCs) in wireless multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communications. Since this discrete fractional quadratic optimization problem is NP-hard in general, we present a suboptimal approach...

We propose a class of quadratic optimization problems whose exact optimal objective values can be computed by their completely positive cone programming relaxations. The objective function can be any quadratic form. The constraints of each problem are described in terms of quadratic forms with no linear terms, and all constraints are homogeneous equalities, except one inhomogeneous equality whe...
