Convex hull restriction over complex variable, is possible? Nonconvex Dec 11, 2013 M Martin Dec 11, 2013 #1 Hi, new in CVX It is possible to formulate this problem in CVX, I have tried without success. A is a 3x3 real (constant) matrix, v is a 3x1 COMPLEX valued vector. Minimize x’*A’Ax-(abs(x’Ax))^2 s.t. x’*x==1 Any help? M Michael C. Grant Dec 12, 2013 #2 This model is not convex, so no.
