Abstract

Abstract Quadratically constrained quadratic programming (QCQP) appears widely in engineering applications such as wireless communications and networking and multiuser detection with examples like the MAXCUT problem and boolean optimization. A general QCQP problem is NP-hard. We propose a penalty formulation for the QCQP problem based on semidefinite relaxation. Under suitable assumptions we show that the optimal solutions of the penalty problem are the same as those of the original QCQP problem if the penalty parameter is sufficiently large. Then, to solve the penalty problem, we present a proximal point algorithm and an update rule for the penalty parameter. Numerically, we test our algorithm on two well-studied QCQP problems. The results show that our proposed algorithm is very effective in finding high-quality solutions.
