success	buffer to store whether expression has curvature curv (w.r.t. original variables)

◆ SCIPisSOCNonlinear()

SCIP_RETCODE SCIPisSOCNonlinear	(	SCIP *	scip,
		SCIP_CONS *	cons,
		SCIP_Bool	compeigenvalues,
		SCIP_Bool *	success,
		SCIP_SIDETYPE *	sidetype,
		SCIP_VAR ***	vars,
		SCIP_Real **	offsets,
		SCIP_Real **	transcoefs,
		int **	transcoefsidx,
		int **	termbegins,
		int *	nvars,
		int *	nterms
	)

checks whether constraint is SOC representable in original variables and returns the SOC representation

The SOC representation has the form: \(\sqrt{\sum_{i=1}^{n} (v_i^T x + \beta_i)^2} - v_{n+1}^T x - \beta_{n+1} \lessgtr 0\), where \(n+1 = \text{nterms}\) and the inequality type is given by sidetype (SCIP_SIDETYPE_RIGHT if inequality is \(\leq\), SCIP_SIDETYPE_LEFT if \(\geq\)).

For each term (i.e. for each \(i\) in the above notation as well as \(n+1\)), the constant \(\beta_i\) is given by the corresponding element offsets[i-1] and termbegins[i-1] is the starting position of the term in arrays transcoefs and transcoefsidx. The overall number of nonzeros is termbegins[nterms].

Arrays transcoefs and transcoefsidx have size termbegins[nterms] and define the linear expressions \(v_i^T x\) for each term. For a term \(i\) in the above notation, the nonzeroes are given by elements termbegins[i-1]...termbegins[i] of transcoefs and transcoefsidx. There may be no nonzeroes for some term (i.e., constant terms are possible). transcoefs contains the coefficients \(v_i\) and transcoefsidx contains positions of variables in the vars array.

The vars array has size nvars and contains \(x\) variables; each variable is included at most once.

The arrays should be freed by calling SCIPfreeSOCArraysNonlinear().

This function uses the methods that are used in the detection algorithm of the SOC nonlinear handler.

Parameters

scip	SCIP data structure
cons	nonlinear constraint
compeigenvalues	whether eigenvalues should be computed to detect complex cases
success	pointer to store whether SOC structure has been detected
sidetype	pointer to store which side of cons is SOC representable; only valid when success is TRUE
vars	variables (x) that appear on both sides; no duplicates are allowed
offsets	offsets of both sides (beta_i)
transcoefs	non-zeros of linear transformation vectors (v_i)
transcoefsidx	mapping of transformation coefficients to variable indices in vars
termbegins	starting indices of transcoefs for each term
nvars	total number of variables appearing (i.e. size of vars)
nterms	number of summands in the SQRT +1 for RHS (n+1)
