NP-complete problems are not the same as co-NP-complete problems, though both are NP-hard. If you are lucky, you can solve an NP-complete problem quickly by guessing the answer, and verifying quickly that the answer is correct. For example, to solve the NP-complete IP feasibility problem just defined, you could luckily guess a feasible vector v, and quickly verify that Av≤b, and that v is integer.

Copositive models arise in quadratic programming (QP) with linear and binary constraints [8,9], fractional QP [3,10], Graph Theory and Combinatorics [2,11], among others. The diversity of copositive formulations in different domains of optimization (continuous and discrete, deterministic and stochastic, robust optimization with uncertain objective and others) is described in [9,12]. According to Dür [9], CP is ‘a powerful modeling tool which interlinks the quadratic and binary worlds’. Being formally very similar to that of SDP, the copositive programmes are NP-hard since testing copositivity of matrices is co-NP-complete [13]. Different algorithms for copositivity detection are described, for example, in [12,14–16]. A clustered bibliography on copositive optimization can be found in [17].

Lemma 3.1 presents the definition of copositivity. However, checking the copositivity of the matrix is a co-NP problem. To reduce the difficulty, a relaxed approach is utilized to guarantee the copositivity of the matrix, which is described in Lemma 3.2. Then, Lemma 3.2 and Lemma 3.3 are used to derive the relaxed SOS-based optimally robust H∞ stability conditions, which are stated in Theorem 3.2.
Tolerances, robustness and parametrization of matrix properties related to optimization problems
Published in Optimization, 2018
The problem of checking whether a given matrix is a P-matrix is known to be co-NP-hard [9,27]. There are, however, efficiently recognizable subclasses such as positive definite matrices (discussed in Section 3), M-matrices (Section 5), H-matrices with positive diagonal entries (Section 6) or totally positive matrices (Section 7).
