注:以下部分数学符号与式子以LaTeX语法表示。
1. (15%) Consider the convex unconstrained optimization problem whose variable
is x \in R^2:
minimize f_0(x) = [x_1 x_2][5 1 \\ 1 5][x_1 x_2].
We will study some types of descent methods in this problem.
(a) (3%) Find \nabla f_0, the gradient of f_0 for any x \in R^2.
(b) (4%) Find \nabla^2f_0, the Hessian of f_0 for any x \in R^2.
(c) (3%) Suppose the initial point is chosen to be x^{(0)} = [3 2]^T. Find the
gradient descent direction \Delta x_{gd}
(d) (5%) Again, let the initial point be x^{(0)} = [3 2]^T. Find the Newton st-
ep \Delta x_{nt}
2. (45%) Consider the convex piecewise-linear minimization problem
minimize \max_{i=1,...,m} (a_i^Tx + b_i) -- (1)
with variable x \in R^n. Suppose the optimal value is attained and is p^*.
(a) (5%) Find the Lagrange dual function of the problem (1).
(b) (5%) Consider an equivalent problem
minimize \max_{i=1,...,m} y_i -- (2)
subject to a_i^Tx + b_i = y_i, i = 1,...,m,
with variables x \in R^n, y \in R^m. Find the Lagrange dual function
of problem (2).
(c) (5%) Derive the dual problem for problem (2).
(d) (5%) Formulate the piecewise-linear minimization problem (1) as an equival-
ent LP. (Hint: by introducing a slack variable s and putting it in the
objective function.)
(e) (10%) Form the dual problem of the LP you obtained in (d).
(f) (5%) For the LP you obtained in (d) (with variable \bar{x} = (x,s) \in
R^{n+1}), and given the barrier method's parameter t, formulate the a-
pproximated equality constrained (or unconstrained) problem.
(g) (10%) Write down the KKT conditions of the problem you obtained in (f).
3. (25%) Consider the problem
minimize (1/2)x^Tx + c^Tx
subject to Ax \preceq b -- (3)
where A \in R^{m\times n}. Suppose you are going to apply the barrier method
to this problem, whose objective function is denoted f_0 and constraint functi-
ons f_i, i=1,...,m. You can denote a_i^T by the ith row of the matrix A.
(a) (10%) Derive tf_0 + \phi as a function of x, where t is any given positive
number and \phi denotes the logarithmic barrier for problem (3).
(b) (15%) For any given strictly feasible point x of (3), derive the Newton st-
ep \Delta x_{nt} at for the "approximated" problem
minimize _x tf_0 + \phi
for any given t>0.
4. (15%) For the following pairs of proper cones K \subseteq R^q and functions
\psi : R^q -> R, determine whether \psi is a generalized logarithm for K. Just-
ify your answers.
(a) (5%) K = R^3_+, \psi(x) = \log x_1 + 2\log x_2 + 3\log x_3.
(b) (5%) K = R^3_+, \psi(x) = \log(x_1 + x_2 +x_3).
(c) (5%) K = R^2_+, \psi(x) = \log x_1 - \log x_2.
