Uno is a modular C++ solver for nonlinearly constrained optimization (NLP, QP, LP). It implements a unification framework that combines interchangeable algorithmic ingredients—constraint relaxation strategies, inequality handling methods, Hessian models (exact, quasi-Newton, identity, zero), inertia correction, subproblem solvers (QP/LP), and globalization mechanisms (line search, trust region, filter, funnel). The solver supports both sequential quadratic programming (SQP) and interior-point methods, and can be configured via presets that mimic established solvers like filterSQP and IPOPT. The architecture is a library with a main orchestration loop in `Uno.cpp`. The user defines the optimization problem through callback functions (objective, gradient, Jacobian, Hessian) via a C API, which is then wrapped by interfaces for AMPL, Fortran, Julia, and Python. Internally, the solver builds a regularized KKT system, delegates subproblem solves to external libraries (HiGHS, BQPD, HSL MA27/57/86, MUMPS, SPRAL), and applies globalization to ensure convergence. The codebase is heavily templated and uses expression templates for linear algebra, factory patterns for component selection, and runtime dynamic loading for optional dependencies. Key entry points include `uno_optimize()` (C API), `UnoSolverWrapper::optimize()` (Python), and the AMPL executable `uno_ampl`. The solver is used in research and production environments via JuMP.jl, CasADi, pyOptSparse, and OpenMDAO. External dependencies include BLAS/LAPACK, HSL (proprietary), MUMPS, SPRAL, HiGHS, BQPD, and AMPL ASL. The project is actively maintained with extensive CI, cross-platform builds, and a growing ecosystem of language bindings.
