- Abstract
- We develop optimality conditions for the second-order cone program. Our optimality conditions are well-defined and smooth everywhere. We then reformulate the optimality conditions into several systems of equations. Starting from a solution to the original problem, the sequence generated by Newton's method converges Q-quadratically to a solution of the perturbed problem under some assumptions. We globalize the algorithm by (1) extending the gradient descent method for differentiable optimization to minimizing continuous functions that are almost everywhere differentiable; (2) finding a directional derivative of the equations. Numerical examples confirm that our algorithm is good for "warm starting" second-order cone programs-in some cases, the solution of a perturbed instance is hit in two iterations. In the progress of our algorithm development, we also generalize the nonlinear complementarity function approach for two variables to several variables.
