CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:TITLE: Semidefinite Optimization Approaches for Reactive Optim
 al\nPower Flow Problems\n\nSpeaker:\n Miguel Anjos\n\nAffiliation:\n Unive
 rsity of Edinburgh\n\nZoom:\n Register\n[https://www.fields.utoronto.ca/cg
 i-bin/register?form_selection=optimization] through\nThe Fields Institute
 \n\nABSTRACT:\n\nThe Reactive Optimal Power Flow (ROPF) problem consists i
 n computing\nan optimal power generation dispatch for an alternating curre
 nt\ntransmission network that respects power flow equations and\noperation
 al constraints. Some means of voltage control are modelled in\nROPF such a
 s the possible activation of shunts\, and these controls are\nmodelled usi
 ng discrete variables. The ROPF problem belongs to the\nclass of nonconvex
  MINLPs\, which are NP-hard problems. We consider\nsemidefinite optimizati
 on approaches for solving ROPF problems and\ntheir integration into a bran
 ch-and-bound algorithm.
