The result obtained using the SeDuMi solver is inaccurate. The optimal solution is not as good as before the optimization.

We have no idea what your program is, other than that it involves a function utilizing the exponential cone.

If you have access to Mosek as solver, use it. 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 .

It may also be the case that the numerical scaling in your problem is poor.
