Moment Relaxations for Data-Driven Wasserstein Distributionally Robust Optimization

Shixuan Zhang, Suhan Zhong

We propose moment relaxations for data-driven -Wasserstein distributionally robust optimization (-WDRO) problems that are defined by polynomials. The proposed moment relaxati…

Semigroups of Integer Points in Convex Cones

Grigoriy Blekherman, Jesús A. De Loera, Luze Xu +1

We study the question whether the affine semigroup of integer points in a convex cone can be finitely generated up to symmetries of the cone. We establish general properties of fin…

Integer Points in Arbitrary Convex Cones: The Case of the PSD and SOC Cones

Jesús A. De Loera, Brittney Marsters, Luze Xu +1

We investigate the semigroup of integer points inside a convex cone. We extend classical results in integer linear programming to integer conic programming. We show that the semigr…
