How do I reshape variables in MOSEK

I am trying to convert an optimization code written in MATLAB CVX to Python code that directly calls the solver MOSEK. My optimization consists of the following type of equation:

||Ax-b|| + regularizer.

x is a three-dimensional variable whose optimal value needs to be evaluated. I define A as a function in MATLAB as follows:

function D = A(X)   

n = size(X,1);
m = size(X,2);
nim = size(X,3);
for t = 1:nim
    temp = X(:,:,t);
    D(:,:,t) = squeeze(sum(sum(reshape(temp,7,19,7,19),1),3));
end
end

And so,||Ax-b|| in MATLAB CVX becomes

norm((vec(A(x)-b)))

Now, when I convert to python directly calling MOSEK, I write:

def lseReg(b,I,n,m,d,n1,m1,alpha,beta):
    M = Model("LSE-REG")
    x = M.variable("x", [n,m,d] )
    t = M.variable("t")
    
    y = M.variable("y",[n1,m1,d])
    for i in range(0,d):
        temp = x.slice([0,0,i],[n,m,i])
        temp2 = Var.reshape(temp,[19,7,19,7])
        y.slice[[0,0,i],[n1,m1,i]] =  Expr.sum(Expr.sum(temp2,3),1)
        
    r = Expr.sub(b,y)
    M.constraint(Expr.vstack(0.5,t,r),Domain.inRotatedQCone())
    t2 = M.variable("t2")
    r2 = Expr.sub(I,Expr.sum(x,2))
    M.constraint(Expr.vstack(0.5,t2,r2),Domain.inRotatedQCone())
    #the Objective
    ObjExpr1 = t.asExpr()
    ObjExpr2 = t2.asExpr()
    ObjExpr3 = Expr.mul(alpha,lassoVar(M,x,n,m,d))
    ObjExpr4 = Expr.mul(beta,lassoTV(M,x,n,m,d))
    objExpr = Expr.add(ObjExpr1,ObjExpr2,ObjExpr3,ObjExpr4)
    M.objective(ObjectiveSense.Minimize,objExpr)
    return M

However, I get the error:

  File "C:\Users\Anaconda\lib\site-packages\mosek\fusion\impl\_implementation.py", line 13779, in reshape
    return mosek_fusion_Var._reshape_alt_Lmosek_4fusion_4Variable_2_3I(*args)

LengthError: Shape size does not match variable size

What am I doing wrong with this reshape?

This:

x.slice([0,0,i],[n,m,i])

will give you an object of size 0, you probably meant

x.slice([0,0,i],[n,m,i+1])

Remember that the "last" index is the one 1 behind the last element of the slice you want.

You cannot assign things to a slice, this is illegal:

y.slice[[0,0,i],[n1,m1,i]] =

Instead you probably want to make a constraint.

Those are the general comments that may be useful for others. We are aware that you sent the problem to MOSEK support and we are going to answer there with more details specific to your other questions.
