Popov Mirror-Prox for solving Variational Inequalities

Optimization and Control 2024-09-27 v2

Abstract

We consider the mirror-prox algorithm for solving monotone Variational Inequality (VI) problems. As the mirror-prox algorithm is not practically implementable, except in special instances of VIs (such as affine VIs), we consider its implementation with Popov method updates. We provide convergence rate analysis of our proposed method for a monotone VI with a Lipschitz continuous mapping. We establish a convergence rate of O(1/t)O(1/t), in terms of the number tt of iterations, for the dual gap function. Simulations on a two player matrix game corroborate our findings.
