Abstract

In this chapter we cover the fundamental aspects of semidefinite programming, which will be seen to be closely related to the fundamental aspects of linear programming covered in the previous chapter. Whereas in the context of linear programming the basic objects of interest were real vectors, in the context of semidefinite programming, the basic objects of interest are Hermitian operators. We will see later in this chapter that linear programming can in fact be viewed as a special instance of semidefinite programming, which also explains why the two are so intimately related to each other.
