Perron-Frobenius matrix completion

The DGP atom library has several functions of positive matrices, including the trace, (matrix) product, sum, Perron-Frobenius eigenvalue, and :math:(I - X)^{-1} (eye-minus-inverse). In this notebook, we use some of these atoms to formulate and solve an interesting matrix completion problem.

In this problem, we are given some entries of an elementwise positive matrix :math:A, and the goal is to choose the missing entries so as to minimize the Perron-Frobenius eigenvalue or spectral radius. Letting :math:\Omega denote the set of indices :math:(i, j) for which :math:A_{ij} is known, the optimization problem is

.. math::

\begin{equation} \begin{array}{ll} \mbox{minimize} & \lambda_{\text{pf}}(X) \ \mbox{subject to} & \prod_{(i, j) \not\in \Omega} X_{ij} = 1 \ & X_{ij} = A_{ij}, , (i, j) \in \Omega, \end{array} \end{equation}

which is a log-log convex program. Below is an implementation of this problem, with specific problem data

.. math::

A = \begin{bmatrix} 1.0 & ? & 1.9 \ ? & 0.8 & ? \ 3.2 & 5.9& ? \end{bmatrix},

where the question marks denote the missing entries.

X = cp.Variable((n, n), pos=True)
objective_fn = cp.pf_eigenvalue(X)
constraints = [
  X[known_value_indices] == known_values,
  X[0, 1] * X[1, 0] * X[1, 2] * X[2, 2] == 1.0,
]
problem = cp.Problem(cp.Minimize(objective_fn), constraints)
problem.solve(gp=True)
