Abstract

This paper gives an algorithm for computing local saddle points for unconstrained polynomial optimization. It is based on optimality conditions and Lasserre’s hierarchy of semidefinite relaxations. It can determine the existence of local saddle points. When there are several different local saddle point values, the algorithm can get them from the smallest one to the largest one.
