It is almost inevitable in Operations Research to come across linear or quadratic programming problems. The overall structures of these problems are below: beginalignbeginarrayll
sfLinear\
max & bf c^top x\
texts.t. & Abf xle b \
textand & bf x ge 0
endarrayquadquadquadquadbeginarrayllsfQuadratic\min ½bfx^topQbf x+c^top x\texts.t. & Abf xpreceq b\endarrayendalign Both types of programming have their own (if not overlapping) applications; see, for example McCarl et al. (1977).
However, I have rarely heard of specific names for higher-order programming problems other than the generic "non-linear programming" term.
How much work has gone into the study of cubic/quartic etc. programming? What do the structures of these problems look like, and are there any specific examples of where they can be useful?

In addition to the excellent answers that are already posted, I want to add that for the pragmatic optimizer, quadratic may already be sufficient.
For example, the cubic constraint $x^3 le 1$ may be replaced by $xy le 1$ and $y=x^2$, which are both quadratic constraints.
This paper is full of examples of non-linear models that can be reformulated as second order cone programs, which are convex quadratic problems. Maximizing a product of non-negative affine functions is one of the examples.
$endgroup$
$begingroup$
It might be worth noting that $x^3 leq 1$ can be replaced with $x leq 1$, and it might also be worth substituting "SOCP" for "quadratic", since non-convex quadratic problems can be tough to model (they are NP-hard, since the constraint $x_i^2=x_i$ models a binary variable). Assuming that you meant to say SOCP, I agree with your point, since $l_p$ norms are SOCP representable, as proven here.
