Semidefinite programming (SDP) is a subfield of convex optimization concerned with the optimization of a linear objective function over the intersection of the cone of positive semidefinite matrices with an affine space. Context:

    • It is an optimization problem of the form: Minimize [math]\displaystyle{ C\dot X \\ }[/math] such that [math]\displaystyle{ A_i X=b_i,i=1,\dots,m \\ X \geq 0 }[/math]
