How to write this objective in CVXPY for quasiconvex programming?
I have the following objective that I want to maximize:
\begin{equation}
\max_{U_T\in \mathbb{R}, x\in\mathbb{R}^T} J_\alpha(U_T) = \frac{\alpha}{\alpha-1}\log\left(\frac{\cosh(U_T)}{\cosh(\alpha U_T)^...

On a clarification on usage of inequalities in convex programming
The inequality $x^3\leq y$ is not convex. But $0<x$ added to the above provides a convex region.
My question is whether in convex programming it is allowed to use both inequalities together and use ...

How to minimize a quasi-convex function in 2 dimensions?
I know that if $f$ is a quasi-convex function in one dimension (that is, $f: \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}$), then we can use the 'golden section' line search to find the optimizer.
Now suppose I have a ...

How to linearize this multiplicative constraint?
I have a constraint in the form
$\sqrt{|\sum_{c\in C}{h_cw_c}|^2}\ge\sqrt{x}\zeta$
Here, $h_c$ is s row vector (know), $w_c$ is a column vector (variable).
$x$ and $\zeta$ are also optimization ...

Maximizing a Ratio/Percent
I'm using cvxpy to model a problem. Inside a very large and complex LP, I create two continuous, affine (unconstrained) expressions: $x$ and $y$. Due to how they ...
