Separation oracle

A separation oracle (also called a cutting-plane oracle) is a concept in the mathematical theory of convex optimization. It is a method to describe a convex set that is given as an input to an optimization algorithm. Separation oracles are used as input to ellipsoid methods. (Wikipedia).

Haotian Jiang: Minimizing Convex Functions with Integral Minimizers

Given a separation oracle SO for a convex function f that has an integral minimizer inside a box with radius R, we show how to find an exact minimizer of f using at most • O(n(n + log(R))) calls to SO and poly(n,log(R)) arithmetic operations, or • O(nlog(nR)) calls to SO and exp(O(n)) · po

Stefan Weltge: Speeding up the Cutting Plane Method?

We consider the problem of maximizing a linear functional over a general convex body K given by a separation oracle. While the standard cutting plane algorithm performs well in practice, no bounds on the number of oracle calls can be given. In contrast, methods with strong theoretical guar
