This paper develops a new storage-optimal algorithm that provably solves generic semidefinite programs (SDPs) in standard form. This method is particularly effective for weakly constrained SDPs. The key idea is to formulate an approximate complementarity principle: Given an approximate solution to the dual SDP, the primal SDP has an approximate solution whose range is contained in the eigenspace with small eigenvalues of the dual slack matrix. For weakly constrained SDPs, this eigenspace has very low dimension, so this observation significantly reduces the search space for the primal solution. This result suggests an algorithmic strategy that can be implemented with minimal storage: (1) Solve the dual SDP approximately; (2) compress the primal SDP to the eigenspace with small eigenvalues of the dual slack matrix; (3) solve the compressed primal SDP. The paper also provides numerical experiments showing that this approach is successful for a range of interesting large-scale SDPs.

Because failures in distribution systems caused by extreme weather events directly result in consumers outages, this paper proposes a state-based decision-making model with the objective of mitigating loss of load to improve the distribution system r esilience throughout the unfolding events. The sequentially uncertain system states, e.g., feeder line on/off states, driven by the unfolding events are modeled as Markov states, and the probabilities from one Markov state to another Markov state throughout the unfolding events are determined by the component failure caused by the unfolding events. A recursive optimization model based on Markov decision processes (MDP) is developed to make state-based actions, i.e., system reconfiguration, at each decision time. To overcome the curse of dimensionality caused by enormous states and actions, an approximate dynamic programming (ADP) approach based on post-decision states and iteration is used to solve the proposed MDP-based model. IEEE 33-bus system and IEEE 123-bus system are used to validate the proposed model.
Reliable preparation of entanglement between distant systems is an outstanding problem in quantum information science and quantum communication. In practice, this has to be accomplished via noisy channels (such as optical fibers) that generally resul t in exponential attenuation of quantum signals at large distances. A special class of quantum error correction protocols--quantum repeater protocols--can be used to overcome such losses. In this work, we introduce a method for systematically optimizing existing protocols and developing new, more efficient protocols. Our approach makes use of a dynamic programming-based searching algorithm, the complexity of which scales only polynomially with the communication distance, letting us efficiently determine near-optimal solutions. We find significant improvements in both the speed and the final state fidelity for preparing long distance entangled states.

In this paper we examine a symmetric tensor decomposition problem, the Gramian decomposition, posed as a rank minimization problem. We study the relaxation of the problem and consider cases when the relaxed solution is a solution to the original prob lem. In some instances of tensor rank and order, we prove generically that the solution to the relaxation will be optimal in the original. In other cases, we present interesting examples and approaches that demonstrate the intricacy of this problem.
In this effort, a novel operator theoretic framework is developed for data-driven solution of optimal control problems. The developed methods focus on the use of trajectories (i.e., time-series) as the fundamental unit of data for the resolution of o ptimal control problems in dynamical systems. Trajectory information in the dynamical systems is embedded in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS) through what are called occupation kernels. The occupation kernels are tied to the dynamics of the system through the densely defined Liouville operator. The pairing of Liouville operators and occupation kernels allows for lifting of nonlinear finite-dimensional optimal control problems into the space of infinite-dimensional linear programs over RKHSs.
In this paper we give an algorithm to round the floating point output of a semidefinite programming solver to a solution over the rationals or a quadratic extension of the rationals. We apply this to get sharp bounds for packing problems, and we use these sharp bounds to prove that certain optimal packing configurations are unique up to rotations. In particular, we show that the configuration coming from the $mathsf{E}_8$ root lattice is the unique optimal code with minimal angular distance $pi/3$ on the hemisphere in $mathbb R^8$, and we prove that the three-point bound for the $(3, 8, vartheta)$-spherical code, where $vartheta$ is such that $cos vartheta = (2sqrt{2}-1)/7$, is sharp by rounding to $mathbb Q[sqrt{2}]$. We also use our machinery to compute sharp upper bounds on the number of spheres that can be packed into a larger sphere.
