A User Manual for cuHALLaR: A GPU Accelerated Low-Rank Semidefinite Programming Solver

Abstract

We present a Julia-based interface to the precompiled HALLaR and cuHALLaR binaries for large-scale semidefinite programs (SDPs). Both solvers are established as fast and numerically stable, and accept problem data in formats compatible with SDPA and a new enhanced data format taking advantage of Hybrid Sparse Low-Rank (HSLR) structure. The interface allows users to load custom data files, configure solver options, and execute experiments directly from Julia. A collection of example problems is included, including the SDP relaxations of the Matrix Completion and Maximum Stable Set problems.
