| Research Abstract |
We obtained several results on semidefinite programming and discrete convex analysis and presented these results at international conferences, e.g., International Symposium on Algorithms and Computation, Conference on Integer Programming and Combinatorial Optimization and so on. Here we explain seven results among these.
1) Fujie and Tamura generalized the theory of a convex set relaxation for the maximum weight stable set problem to the generalized stable set problem. They also gave simple proofs for several results for the maximum weight stable set problem.
2) Murota et al. proved that the numerically obtained solution of group symmetric semidefinite program is group symmetric.
3) Murota et al. gave a framework of exploiting the aggregate sparsity pattern over all data matrices of large scale and sparse semidefinite programs.
4) Murota and Tamura gave an efficient algorithm to decide whether a competitive equilibrium exists or not in some economic model by utilizing M-convex submodular flow problem.
5) Tamura devised a new scaling technique and an efficient algorithm for M-convex function minimization problem.
6) Murota and Tamura proved proximity theorems for several discrete convex functions, for example, M2-convex functions, L2-convex functions and so on.
7) Tamura showed a technical result that any L2-convex function can be represented by the convolution of two L-convex functions attaining the infimum in the definition of the convolution. This result gives simple proofs for several known results on L2-convex functions.
