$\ell^1$-norm minimization duality
I am looking for an explicit description and discussion of the dual of the $\ell^1$-norm minimization problem $\lVert A x\rVert_1\to\min$, where $A$ is a matrix, and $x$ belongs to the $n$-simplex $\...

Additional symmetries of the Traveling Salesman Polytope
Given the complete graph $K_n=(V,E)$, the Traveling Salesman Polytope is a convex polytope in $\Bbb R^E$ obtained as the convex hull of the indicator vectors of (edge-sets of) Hamiltonian cycles in $...

Generalization of Farkas' Lemma to Hermitian Matrices
I recently stumbled upon a well-known version of Farkas' Lemma which, roughly speaking, I would like to generalize from real vectors to hermitian matrices, as it seems promising for something else I ...

In what paper was the shrinkage parameter introduced to the nelder-mead simplex direct search algorithm?
I have read lots of papers referencing a 4th shrinkage parameter when talking about the Nelder Mead Simplex method. However, I cannot see any shrinkage parameter in the flow chart of the original ...

Complexity of Nested Linear Optimization
My question is motivated by the fact, that among other ways, it is possible to restrict a variable to two discrete values, e.g. the prototypical $0$ and $1$, via an optimization constraint:
$$\max(\...

Bound on solutions of $Ax \ge b$
Let $A \in \mathbb{Z}^{m \times n}, b \in \mathbb{Z}^{m \times 1}$.
One can show that if there is a solution of $Ax \ge b, x \in \mathbb{R}^n$ then there is one such that $\|x\|_{\infty} \le c (\|A\|_{...

Minimum circumscribed ellipsoid of $\mathcal H$-polytope
Given matrix $A \in \mathbb{R}^{m \times n}$ and vector $b \in \mathbb{R}^n$, consider the $\mathcal H$-polytope $P$ defined as follows
$$ P := \left\{ x \in \mathbb{R}^n : Ax \leq b \right\} $$

linear inequalities and reference request
I have proved and am using the following simple lemma in my current research problem:
Let $\{a_1,...,a_m\}$ and $\{b_1,b_2,...,b_n\}$ be set of positive numbers such that $\sum_{i=1}^m a_i < \sum_{...
