25 10/15 SDP representations and psd rank Theorem (Gouveia, Parrilo, Thomas, 2011) Let P be polytope with slack matrix M. The smallest semidefinite representation of P has size exactly rank psd (M). Polytope P Slack matrix M rank psd (M) Works for more generally for convex sets (slack matrix is infinite) Proof based on duality for semidefinite programming
26 10/15 SDP representations and psd rank Theorem (Gouveia, Parrilo, Thomas, 2011) Let P be polytope with slack matrix M. The smallest semidefinite representation of P has size exactly rank psd (M). Polytope P Slack matrix M rank psd (M) Works for more generally for convex sets (slack matrix is infinite) Proof based on duality for semidefinite programming Example: Slack matrix of square [ 1, 1] 2 has positive semidefinite rank 3.
27 11/15 Properties of rank psd Satisfies the usual properties one would expect for a rank (invariance under scaling, subadditivity, etc.) [Fawzi, Gouveia, Parrilo, Robinson, Thomas, Positive semidefinite rank, Math. Prog., 2015] Connection with problems in information theory NP-hard to compute [Shitov, 2016]
28 12/15 Linear programming (LP) lifts Polytope P has LP lift of size d if it can be written as P = π(r d + L) where L affine subspace and π linear map Nonnegative factorization of M of size d: M ij = a T i b j where a i, b j R d + rank + (M) := size of smallest nonnegative factorization of M Theorem (Yannakakis, 1991) Let P be polytope with slack matrix M. The smallest LP lift of P has size exactly rank + (M).
29 13/15 LP lifts vs. SDP lifts Example The square P = [ 1, 1] 2 : SDP lifts: P has an SDP lift of size 3: [ 1, 1] 2 = (x1, x2) R2 : u R 1 x 1 x 2 x 1 1 u 0 x 2 u 1 SDP lift of size 3. LP lifts: Can show that any LP lift of [ 1, 1] 2 must have size 4. Stable set polytope for perfect graphs: SDP lift of linear size (Lovász) but no currently known LP lift of polynomial size
30 14/15 LP lifts vs. SDP lifts Question: How powerful are SDP lifts compared to LP lifts? Theorem (Fawzi, Saunderson, Parrilo, 2015) There is a family of polytopes P d R 2d such that ( ) rank psd (P d ) log d rank + (P d ) O 0. d P d = trigonometric cyclic polytope (generalization of regular polygons) Construction uses tools from Fourier analysis + sparse sums of squares
