Abstract
We present a faster interior-point method for optimizing sum-of-squares (SOS) polynomials, which are a central tool in polynomial optimization and capture convex programming in the Lasserre hierarchy. Let p = ∑_i q²_i be an n-variate SOS polynomial of degree 2d. Denoting by L : = binom(n+d,d) and U : = binom(n+2d,2d) the dimensions of the vector spaces in which q_i’s and p live respectively, our algorithm runs in time Õ(LU^{1.87}). This is polynomially faster than state-of-art SOS and semidefinite programming solvers [Jiang et al., 2020; Huang et al., 2021; Papp and Yildiz, 2019], which achieve runtime Õ(L^{0.5} min{U^{2.37}, L^{4.24}}). The centerpiece of our algorithm is a dynamic data structure for maintaining the inverse of the Hessian of the SOS barrier function under the polynomial interpolant basis [Papp and Yildiz, 2019], which efficiently extends to multivariate SOS optimization, and requires maintaining spectral approximations to low-rank perturbations of elementwise (Hadamard) products. This is the main challenge and departure from recent IPM breakthroughs using inverse-maintenance, where low-rank updates to the slack matrix readily imply the same for the Hessian matrix.
