I have a mathematical constraint which is a summation of exponential functions: $f = e^x + y$. Function $f$ is obviously convex. However, when I include this constraint in my model, MOSEK complains that the constraints with equations $f$ is a non symmetric cone. Upon doing a bit of research, I found notes about Euclidean Jordan Algebra being a unifying algebra for symmetric cones. I have 2 questions, (1) How do I prove that indeed the constraint with functions $f$ belongs in a non symmetric cone? (2) I do not understand how convexity relates to symmetric cones only as required by Euclidian Jordan Algebra. Please help?

    How exactly did you include that constraint in MOSEK and what was the error message? MOSEK version 9 supports the exponential cone even though it is not symmetric. These cones are also convex, and whether a solver supports them or not is a matter of choice. There are simply more efficient algorithms for symmetric cones than nonsymmetric ones.

    That doesn't explain how you inputted it in MOSEK and what error you exactly got. I am trying to find out if maybe it is some simple programming problem rather than a deep Jordan Algebra issue that you need help with.

    I am using cvxpy and this is the snippet of the constraint:$(cp.exp(math.log(2) * (x[0] + x[0])) + (cp.exp(math.log(2) * (x[0] + x[1])) + (cp.exp(math.log(2) * (x[0] + x[2])) + (cp.exp(math.log(2) * (x[0] + x[3])) + (cp.exp(math.log(2) * (x[1] + x[0])) + (cp.exp(math.log(2) * (x[1] + x[1])) + vdots (cp.exp(math.log(2) * (x[3] + x[3])) <= 0$. The error message from Mosek is that this specific constraint is in the non symmetric cone.
