Can we express a SPD matrix $S$ in terms of $S^{2}$ in a different manner to solve a convex problem?
I have to find the Symmetric Positive Definite matrix $S\in \mathcal{M}_{m,m}$ that minimizes the function $f(S)=\mathrm{trace}(S)+\mathrm{trace}(S^{-2})$ which has been proven to be convex in the ...

Convexity of a function and constraint
Consider the quadratic function $f(x_1,x_2,x_3,x_4)=x_1+2x_2+4x_4+x_1^2+5x_2^2+3x_3^2x_4^2-4x_1x_2-2x_2x_3+2x_3x_4$. Is f a convex function?
Consider a constraint defined using the above function f: ...
