Abstract

Witsenhausen's problem asks for the maximum fraction αn of the n-dimensional unit sphere that can be covered by a measurable set containing no pairs of orthogonal points. We extended well known optimization hierarchies based on the Lovász theta number, like the Lasserre hierarchy, to Witsenhausen's problem and similar problems. These hierarchies are shown to converge and are used to compute the best upper bounds known for αn in low dimensions.
