Abstract

Optimisation modulo theories is a new paradigm in which one optimises an objective function subject to a Boolean combination of linear constraints. The open-source SMT-solver Z3 currently only supports optimising linear objective functions. The goal of this project is to add support for optimising convex quadratic functions to Z3 based on the classical Frank-Wolfe algorithm.
