Our method is inspired by a set of results from quantum information known as quantum de Finetti theorems. In particular, we prove a de Finetti theorem for a special class of real symmetric matrices to establish the existence of approximate representing measures for moment matrix relaxations.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2013-06-22T13:20:59.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "polynomial optimization", "sdp hierarchies", "hypersphere", "convergence", "finetti theorem" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 45, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2012arXiv1210.5048D" } } }
