Quadratic programming (QP) is the process of solving certain mathematical optimization problems involving quadratic functions. Specifically, one seeks to optimize (minimize or maximize) a multivariate quadratic function subject to linear constraints on the variables.
Qin Jiushao's algorithm for solving the quadratic polynomial equation + = result: x =840 [ 11 ] Horner's paper, titled "A new method of solving numerical equations of all orders, by continuous approximation", [ 12 ] was read before the Royal Society of London, at its meeting on July 1, 1819, with a sequel in 1823.

HiGHS is open-source software to solve linear programming (LP), mixed-integer programming (MIP), and convex quadratic programming (QP) models. [ 1 ] Written in C++ and published under an MIT license, HiGHS provides programming interfaces to C , Python , Julia , Rust , JavaScript , Fortran , and C# .
If M is positive definite, any algorithm for solving (strictly) convex QPs can solve the LCP. Specially designed basis-exchange pivoting algorithms, such as Lemke's algorithm and a variant of the simplex algorithm of Dantzig have been used for decades. Besides having polynomial time complexity, interior-point methods are also effective in practice.
Suppose that we want to solve the equation f(x) = 0. As with the bisection method, we need to initialize Dekker's method with two points, say a 0 and b 0, such that f(a 0) and f(b 0) have opposite signs. If f is continuous on [a 0, b 0], the intermediate value theorem guarantees the existence of a solution between a 0 and b 0.
A comparison of the convergence of gradient descent with optimal step size (in green) and conjugate vector (in red) for minimizing a quadratic function associated with a given linear system. Conjugate gradient, assuming exact arithmetic, converges in at most n steps, where n is the size of the matrix of the system (here n = 2).
A similar but more complicated method works for cubic equations, which have three resolvents and a quadratic equation (the "resolving polynomial") relating and , which one can solve by the quadratic equation, and similarly for a quartic equation (degree 4), whose resolving polynomial is a cubic, which can in turn be solved.
