Abstract

We show that Nesterov acceleration is an optimal-order iterative regularization method for linear ill-posed problems provided that a parameter is chosen accordingly to the smoothness of the solution. This result is proven both for an a priori stopping rule and for the discrepancy principle. The essential tool to obtain this result is a representation of the residual polynomials via Gegenbauer polynomials.
