This establishes size-degree trade-offs for SOS and PS that match their analogues for weaker proof systems such as Resolution, Polynomial Calculus, and the proof systems for the LP and SDP hierarchies ...
We show that if a system of degree-k polynomial constraints on n Boolean variables has a Sums-of-Squares (SOS) proof of unsatisfiability with at most s many monomials, then it also has one whose degree ...

We remark that the scope of this paper is theoretical at this stage as our hierarchies-though they involve at most two sum of squares constraints or only basic arithmetic at each level-require the use ...

Convex relaxations for quadratic distance problems
2008
2008 47th IEEE Conference on Decision and Control
In this paper, several convex relaxations are presented for quadratic distance problems which are based on the sum-of squares representation of positive polynomials. ...
Convex relaxations of nonconvex problems are a powerful tool for the analysis and design of control systems. ...
Moreover, the only source of conservatism for such relaxations is due to the gap between positive semidefinite forms and sums-of-squares. ...

Also, we derive a general Positivstellensatz which allows us to prove the existence of certificates of non-negativity for any semialgebraic compact set, based on any class of non-negative polynomials such ...
Certificates of non-negativity are fundamental tools in optimization, and they underlie powerful algorithmic techniques for various types of optimization problems. ...

Polynomial Invariant Generation for Non-deterministic Recursive Programs
[article]
2020
arXiv

We consider the classical problem of invariant generation for programs with polynomial assignments and focus on synthesizing invariants that are a conjunction of strict polynomial inequalities. ...
To the best of our knowledge, this is the first invariant generation method to provide completeness guarantees for invariants consisting of polynomial inequalities. ...
Hence, there is currently a trade-off between accuracy (completeness guarantees) and efficiency. ...

Algorithmic Thresholds for Refuting Random Polynomial Systems
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
We prove a lower bound in the restricted low-degree polynomial model of computation which suggests that this trade-off between SoS degree and the number of equations is nearly tight for all d. ...
We also confirm the predictions of this lower bound in a limited setting by showing a lower bound on the canonical degree-4 sum-of-squares relaxation for refuting random quadratic polynomials. ...
Finally, we would like to thank Sidhanth Mohanty and Jeff Xu for discussions on low-degree hardness and SoS lower bounds in general. ...
