Property of the optimal solution of an optimization problem
$m \geq 2, n \geq 2 .[m]=\{1,2, \ldots, m\} \text { and }[n]=\{1,2, \ldots, n\}.$
Vectors $c$ $\in \mathbb{R}_{++}^{m}$(strictly positive), $w$ $\in \mathbb{R}_{++}^{n}$ and $\sum_{i \in[n]} w_{i}=1$....

Proving the non-negativity of the optimal solution of a constrained quadratic programming
I have the following quadratic problem:
$\max$ $a^Tx+0.5x^TAx$
$s.t: 1^Tx=1$
in which $a=[a_1, a_2,\dots,a_n]$ is a non-negative vector, and $1^T=[1,1,\dots, 1]$. The Hessian matrix $A$ has ...
