Abstract

Under the assumption that uncertain coefficients corresponding to each constraint are perturbed in an ellipsoidal set, we consider the problem of maximizing the perturbation radius of the ellipsoidal set associated to a robust convex quadratically constrained quadratic programming problem to maintain some properties of a pre-decision. To this end, a fractional programming problem is first formulated to solve the problem, and then equivalently reformulated into linear conic programs over positive semi-definite, second-order cones that are solvable in polynomial time. Numerical experiments in connection with the robust Markowitz’s portfolio selection problem are provided to demonstrate the proposed concept of sensitivity analysis. Additionally, certain numerical results are also presented to compare the efficiency of direct solutions of the proposed linear conic programs with that of a bisection method for the corresponding fractional programming problem.
