On the {\L}ojasiewicz Exponent of the Quadratic Sphere Constrained Optimization Problem
In this paper, we prove that the global version of the ${\L}$ojasiewicz gradient inequality holds for quadratic sphere constrained optimization problem with exponent $\theta=\frac{3}{4}$. An example from Ting Kei Pong shows that $\theta=\frac{3}{4}$ is tight. This is the first ${\L}$ojasiewicz gradient inequality established for the sphere constrained optimization problem with a linear term.
