On Quadratic Programming with a Ratio Objective
Quadratic Programming (QP) is the well-studied problem of maximizing over {−1, 1} values the quadratic form i=j aijxixj. QP captures many known combinatorial optimization proble...

A Complementary Pivoting Approach to the Maximum Weight Clique Problem
Given an undirected graph with positive weights on the vertices, the maximum weight clique problem (MWCP) is to find a subset of mutually adjacent vertices (i.e., a clique) having ...

Who needs QP for linear MPC anyway?
Conventional MPC uses quadratic programming (QP) to minimise, on-line, a cost over n linearly constrained control moves. However, stability constraints often require the use of la...

Optimal solutions for unrelated parallel machines scheduling problems using convex quadratic reformulations
We consider the unrelated parallel machines scheduling problem where jobs have earliness and tardiness penalties and a common due date. We formulate this problem and some of its v...
