abstract
Sum-of-squares (SOS) optimization provides a computationally tractable framework for certifying polynomial nonnegativity. If the considered problem is convex, the SOS problem can be transcribed into and solved by semi-definite programs. However, in case of nonconvex problems iterative procedures are needed. Yet tractable and efficient solution methods are still lacking, limiting their application, for instance, in control engineering. To address this gap, we propose a filter line search algorithm that solves a sequence of quadratic subproblems. Numerical benchmarks demonstrate that the algorithm can significantly reduce the number of iterations, resulting in a substantial decrease in computation time compared to established methods for nonconvex SOS programs
