Abstract in Portuguese
Este trabalho insere-se no contexto de métodos de multiplicadores para a resolução de problemas de programação convexa semidefinida e a análise de suas propriedades através do método proximal aplicado sobre o problema dual. Nosso foco será uma subclasse de problemas de programação convexa semidefinida com restrições afins, para a qual estudaremos relações de dualidade e condições para a existência de soluções dos problemas primal e dual. Em seguida, analisaremos dois métodos de multiplicadores para resolver essa classe de problemas e que são extensões de métodos conhecidos para programação não-linear. O primeiro, proposto por Doljansky e Teboulle, aborda um método de ponto proximal interior entrópico e sua conexão com um método de multiplicadores exponenciais. O segundo, apresentado por Mosheyev e Zibulevsky, estende para a classe de problemas de nosso interesse um método de lagrangianos aumentados suaves proposto por Ben-Tal e Zibulevsky. Por fim, apresentamos os resultados de testes numéricos feitos com o algoritmo proposto por Mosheyev e Zibulevsky, analisando diferentes escolhas de parâmetros, o aproveitamento do padrão de esparsidade das matrizes do problema e critérios para a resolução aproximada dos subproblemas irrestritos que devem ser resolvidos a cada iteração desse algoritmo de lagrangianos aumentados.

Abstract in English
This work deals with multiplier methods to solve semidefinite convex programming problems and the analysis of their proprieties based on the proximal point method applied on the dual problem. We focus on a subclass of semidefinite programming problems with affine constraints, for which we study duality relations an conditions for the existence of solutions of the primal and dual problems. Afterwards, we analyze two multiplier methods to solve this class of problems which are extensions of known methods in nonlinear programming. The first one, introduced by Doljansky e Teboulle, approaches an entropic interior proximal algorithm and their relationship with an exponential multiplier method. The second one, presented by Mosheyev e Zibulevsky, extends a smooth augmented Lagrangian method proposed by Ben-Tal and Zibulevsky for the problems of our interest. Finally, we present the results of numerical experiments for the algorithm proposed by Mosheyev e Zibulevsky, analyzing some choices of parameters, the sparsity patterns of matrices of the problem and criteria to accept approximate solutions of the unconstrained subproblems that must be solved at each iteration of the augmented Lagrangian method.
