Abstract

Semidefinite programming (SDP) problems typically utilize a constraint of the form X >= xxT to obtain a convex relaxation of the condition X = xx(T), where x is an element of R-n. In this paper, we consider a new hyperplane branching method for SDP based on using an eigenvector of X - xx(T). This branching technique is related to previous work of Saxeena et al. (Math Prog Ser B 124:383-411, 2010, https:// doi.org/10.1007/s10107-0100371-9) who used such an eigenvector to derive a disjunctive cut. We obtain excellent computational results applying the new branching technique to difficult instances of the two-trust-region subproblem.
