description This note is a first attempt to perform waveform inversion by utilizing recent developments in semidefinite relaxations for polynomial equations to mitigate non-convexity. The approach consists in reformulating the inverse problem as a set of constraints on a low-rank moment matrix in a higher-dimensional space. While this idea has mostly been a theoretical curiosity so far, the novelty of this note is the suggestion that a modified adjoint-state method enables algorithmic scalability of the relaxed formulation to standard 2D community models in geophysical imaging. Numerical experiments show that the new formulation leads to a modest increase in the basin of attraction of least-squares waveform inversion.
