QCQPs. CPLEX for some reason can handle QCQPs with indefinite objective,
but not constraint quadratics. So yes, I would need a global solver,
however, I suppose there should be something specifically tailored to
QCQPs, as opposed to a generic nonlinear IP solver. It seems like scip is
the only one I've found so far publicly available for this
