Shannon Formula Optimization Problem

CVX’s Successive Approximation method was used. It is unreliable, and there are now two better alternatives under CVX.

  1. If you have Mosek available, use that as solver.

  2. Otherwise, follow the directions at CVXQUAD: How to use CVXQUAD's Pade Approximant instead of CVX's unreliable Successive Approximation for GP mode, log, exp, entr, rel_entr, kl_div, log_det, det_rootn, exponential cone. CVXQUAD's Quantum (Matrix) Entropy & Matrix Log related functions . Your program does not need any reformulation in order to use CVXQUAD, because rel_entr is supported.
