Abstract

In this paper we show that a standard SDP relaxation for so called extended trust-region problem is equivalent to a convex quadratic problem, with a linear objective and constraint functions and some additional simple convex quadratic constraints. Through this equivalence, new conditions, generalizing the ones existing in the literature, under which the SDP relaxation is exact, are introduced.
