    报告摘要:we present a two-phase augmented Lagrangian method, called QSDPNAL, for solving convex quadratic semidefinite programming (QSDP) problems with constraints consisting of a large number of linear equality, inequality constraints, a simple convex polyhedral set constraint, and a positive semidefinite {cone} constraint. A first order algorithm which relies on the inexact Schur complement based decomposition technique is developed in QSDPNAL-Phase I with the aim of solving a QSDP problem to moderate accuracy or using it to generate a reasonably good initial point. In QSDPNAL-Phase II, we design an augmented Lagrangian method (ALM) where the inner subproblem in each iteration is solved via inexact semismooth Newton based algorithms. Simple and implementable stopping criteria are provided for the ALM. Moreover, under mild conditions, we are able to analyze the rate of convergence of the proposed algorithm and prove the R-(super)linear convergence rate of the KKT residual. In the implementation of QSDPNAL, we also develop efficient techniques for solving large scale linear systems of equations under certain subspace constraints. More specifically, simpler and yet better conditioned linear systems are carefully designed to replace the original linear systems and innovative shadow sequences are constructed to alleviate the numerical difficulties brought about by the crucial subspace constraints. Extensive numerical results for various large scale QSDPs show that our two-phase framework is not only fast but also robust in obtaining accurate solutions.
