nagcpp::opt::handle_set_simplebounds (e04rh) : NAG Library, Mark 30

template <typename COMM, typename BL, typename BU> void function handle_set_simplebounds(COMM &comm, const BL &bl, const BU &bu, OptionalE04RH opt)

template <typename COMM, typename BL, typename BU> void function handle_set_simplebounds(COMM &comm, const BL &bl, const BU &bu)

3 Description

After the handle has been initialized (e.g., handle_init has been called), handle_set_simplebounds may be used to define the variable bounds

l_{x} \leq x \leq u_{x}

of the problem. If the bounds have already been defined, they will be overwritten. Individual bounds may also be set by e04tdf (no CPP interface).

This will typically be used for problems, such as:

Linear Programming (LP)

\begin{array}{l} \underset{x \in ℝ^{n}}{minimize} & c^{T} x & (a) \\ subject to & l_{B} \leq B x \leq u_{B}, & (b) \\ l_{x} \leq x \leq u_{x}, & (c) \end{array}

(1)

Quadratic Programming (QP)

\begin{array}{l} \underset{x \in ℝ^{n}}{minimize} & \frac{1}{2} x^{T} H x + c^{T} x & (a) \\ subject to & l_{B} \leq B x \leq u_{B}, & (b) \\ l_{x} \leq x \leq u_{x}, & (c) \end{array}

(2)

Nonlinear Programming (NLP)

\begin{array}{l} \underset{x \in ℝ^{n}}{minimize} & f (x) & (a) \\ subject to & l_{g} \leq g (x) \leq u_{g}, & (b) \\ l_{B} \leq B x \leq u_{B}, & (c) \\ l_{x} \leq x \leq u_{x}, & (d) \end{array}

(3)

or linear Semidefinite Programming (SDP)

\begin{array}{l} \underset{x \in ℝ^{n}}{minimize} & c^{T} x & (a) \\ subject to & \sum_{i = 1}^{n} x_{i} A_{i}^{k} - A_{0}^{k} ⪰ 0, k = 1, \dots, m_{A}, & (b) \\ l_{B} \leq B x \leq u_{B}, & (c) \\ l_{x} \leq x \leq u_{x}, & (d) \end{array}

(4)

where

l_{x}

and

u_{x}

are

n

-dimensional vectors. Note that upper and lower bounds are specified for all the variables. This form allows full generality in specifying various types of constraint. In particular, the

j

th variable may be fixed by setting

l_{j} = u_{j}

. If certain bounds are not present, the associated elements of

l_{x}

u_{x}

may be set to special values that are treated as

- \infty

+ \infty

. See the description of the optional parameter Infinite Bound Size which is common among all solvers in the suite. Its value is denoted as

bigbnd

further in this text. Note that the bounds are interpreted based on its value at the time of calling this function and any later alterations to Infinite Bound Size will not affect these constraints.

See Section 3.1 in the E04 Chapter Introduction for more details about the NAG optimization modelling suite.

5 Arguments

comm

– CommE04RA Input/Output

Communication structure. An object of either the derived class CommE04RA or its base class NoneCopyableComm can be supplied. It is recommended that the derived class is used. If the base class is supplied it must first be initialized via a call to opt::handle_init (e04ra).

bl (nvar)

– double array Input

On entry:

l_{x}

, bl and

u_{x}

, bu define lower and upper bounds on the variables, respectively. To fix the

j

th variable, set

bl (j - 1) = bu (j - 1) = β

, where

| β | < bigbnd

. To specify a nonexistent lower bound (i.e.,

l_{j} = - \infty

), set

bl (j - 1) \leq - bigbnd

; to specify a nonexistent upper bound (i.e.,

u_{j} = \infty

), set

bu (j - 1) \geq bigbnd

Constraints:

$bl (j - 1) \leq bu (j - 1)$ , for $j = 1, 2, \dots, nvar$ ;
$bl (j - 1) < bigbnd$ , for $j = 1, 2, \dots, nvar$ ;
$bu (j - 1) > - bigbnd$ , for $j = 1, 2, \dots, nvar$ .

bu (nvar)

– double array Input

On entry:

l_{x}

, bl and

u_{x}

, bu define lower and upper bounds on the variables, respectively. To fix the

j

th variable, set

bl (j - 1) = bu (j - 1) = β

, where

| β | < bigbnd

. To specify a nonexistent lower bound (i.e.,

l_{j} = - \infty

), set

bl (j - 1) \leq - bigbnd

; to specify a nonexistent upper bound (i.e.,

u_{j} = \infty

), set

bu (j - 1) \geq bigbnd

Constraints:

$bl (j - 1) \leq bu (j - 1)$ , for $j = 1, 2, \dots, nvar$ ;
$bl (j - 1) < bigbnd$ , for $j = 1, 2, \dots, nvar$ ;
$bu (j - 1) > - bigbnd$ , for $j = 1, 2, \dots, nvar$ .

opt

– OptionalE04RH Input/Output

Optional parameter container, derived from Optional.

5.1Additional Quantities

1: $nvar$: $n$ , the current number of decision variables $x$ in the model.

6 Exceptions and Warnings

Errors or warnings detected by the function:

All errors and warnings have an associated numeric error code field, errorid, stored either as a member of the thrown exception object (see errorid), or as a member of opt.ifail, depending on how errors and warnings are being handled (see Error Handling for more details).

Raises: ErrorException

$errorid = 1$: comm::handle has not been initialized.

$errorid = 1$: comm::handle does not belong to the NAG optimization modelling suite,
has not been initialized properly or is corrupted.

$errorid = 1$: comm::handle has not been initialized properly or is corrupted.

$errorid = 2$: The problem cannot be modified right now, the solver is running.

$errorid = 4$: On entry, $nvar = ⟨ value ⟩$ ,
expected $value = ⟨ value ⟩$ .
Constraint: $nvar$ must match the current number of variables
of the model in the comm::handle.

$errorid = 10$: On entry, $j = ⟨ value ⟩$ , $bl [j - 1] = ⟨ value ⟩$ and
$bu [j - 1] = ⟨ value ⟩$ .
Constraint: $bl [j - 1] \leq bu [j - 1]$ .

$errorid = 10$: On entry, $j = ⟨ value ⟩$ , $bl [j - 1] = ⟨ value ⟩$ ,

$errorid = 10$: On entry, $j = ⟨ value ⟩$ , $bu [j - 1] = ⟨ value ⟩$ ,
$bigbnd = ⟨ value ⟩$ .
Constraint: $bu [j - 1] > - bigbnd$ .

$errorid = 10601$: On entry, argument $⟨ value ⟩$ must be a vector of size $⟨ value ⟩$ array.
Supplied argument has $⟨ value ⟩$ dimensions.

$errorid = 10601$: On entry, argument $⟨ value ⟩$ must be a vector of size $⟨ value ⟩$ array.
Supplied argument was a vector of size $⟨ value ⟩$ .

$errorid = 10601$: On entry, argument $⟨ value ⟩$ must be a vector of size $⟨ value ⟩$ array.

$errorid = 10602$: On entry, the raw data component of $⟨ value ⟩$ is null.

$errorid = 10605$: On entry, the communication class $⟨ value ⟩$ has not been initialized correctly.
