Bases: Expression

A leaf node of an expression tree; i.e., a Variable, Constant, or Parameter.

A leaf may carry attributes that constrain the set values permissible for it. Leafs can have no more than one attribute, with the exception that a leaf may be both nonpos and nonneg or both boolean in some indices and integer in others.

An error is raised if a leaf is assigned a value that contradicts one or more of its attributes. See the project method for a convenient way to project a value onto a leaf’s domain.

Parameters:

shape (Iterable of ints or int) – The leaf dimensions. Either an integer n for a 1D shape, or an iterable where the semantics are the same as NumPy ndarray shapes. Shapes cannot be more than 2D.
value (numeric type) – A value to assign to the leaf.
nonneg (bool) – Is the variable constrained to be nonnegative?
nonpos (bool) – Is the variable constrained to be nonpositive?
complex (bool) – Is the variable complex valued?
symmetric (bool) – Is the variable symmetric?
diag (bool) – Is the variable diagonal?
PSD (bool) – Is the variable constrained to be positive semidefinite?
NSD (bool) – Is the variable constrained to be negative semidefinite?
Hermitian (bool) – Is the variable Hermitian?
boolean (bool or list of tuple) – Is the variable boolean? True, which constrains the entire Variable to be boolean, False, or a list of indices which should be constrained as boolean, where each index is a tuple of length exactly equal to the length of shape.
integer (bool or list of tuple) – Is the variable integer? The semantics are the same as the boolean argument.
sparsity (list of tuplewith) – Fixed sparsity pattern for the variable.
pos (bool) – Is the variable positive?
neg (bool) – Is the variable negative?

Bases: Leaf

Parameters in optimization problems.

Parameters are constant expressions whose value may be specified after problem creation. The only way to modify a problem after its creation is through parameters. For example, you might choose to declare the hyper-parameters of a machine learning model to be Parameter objects; more generally, Parameters are useful for computing trade-off curves.

Bases: Parameter

A parameter whose value is derived from a callback function.

Enables writing replacing expression that would not be DPP by a new parameter that automatically updates its value.

Example: With p and q parameters, p * q is not DPP, but pq = CallbackParameter(callback=lambda: p.value * q.value) is DPP.

This is useful when only p and q should be exposed to the user, but pq is needed internally.
