Soodeh Habibi, an ESR of University of Birmingham has had 3 months secondments with Inria, France. The purpose of the secondment is to use  SDP solver Loraine for moment tools and test it on low-rank SDP problems coming from Geometry like intersecting curves, algebraic curves, and Geometric modeling. These problems can be constrained to some optimization problems with a finite set of solutions. She was also looking at the Robotic Problems.

This article is a short update on my adventurous second secondment. It is divided into two parts. First, the human part where I tell you of my experience coming to Toulouse. The second part is the math part, where I give a sneak peek into what math I have been cooking along with Monique, Victor and Milan.
