Abstract : Stochastic semidefinite programs (SSDP's) are a new class of optimization problems with a wide variety applications proposed by the PI and his doctoral students. The broad objective of this project was to develop applications of and algorithms for SSDP's. We have developed five classes of novel applications, and three classes of new algorithms. We have proved the convergence and polynomial complexity of the algorithms. We have also identified two new classes of optimization problems which may be useful for future research.
