Convergence analysis of a block improvement method for polynomial optimization over unit spheres

In this paper, we study the convergence property of a block improvement method (BIM) for the bi-quadratic polynomial optimization problem over unit spheres. We establish the global convergence of the method generally and establish its linear convergence rate under the second-order sufficient conditi...
