We consider the problem of maximizing a convex function over a closed convex set in a real Hilbert space. For linear functions, we show that a single orthogonal projection suffices to obtain an approximate solution. For continuous convex…

This paper is devoted to general nonconvex problems of multiobjective optimization in Hilbert spaces. Based on Mordukhovich's limiting subgradients, we define a new notion of Pareto critical points for such problems, establish necessary…

We consider minimization of functions that are compositions of convex or prox-regular functions (possibly extended-valued) with smooth vector functions. A wide variety of important optimization problems fall into this framework. We describe…

Convergence of a projected stochastic gradient algorithm is demonstrated for convex objective functionals with convex constraint sets in Hilbert spaces. In the convex case, the sequence of iterates ${u_n}$ converges weakly to a point in the…

A finite-dimensional Hilbert space is usually described in terms of an orthonormal basis, but in certain approaches or applications a description in terms of a finite overcomplete system of vectors, called a finite tight frame, may offer…

We present several matrix and operator inequalities of Hermite-Hadamard type. We first establish a majorization version for monotone convex functions on matrices. We then utilize the Mond-Pecaric method to get an operator version for convex…

Finding the minimum and the minimizers of convex functions has been of primary concern in convex analysis since its conception. It is well-known that if a convex function has a minimum, then that minimum is global. The minimizers, however,…

To every nearly convex optimization problem, that is a minimization problem with a nearly convex objective function and a nearly convex constraint set, we associate a uniquely defined convex optimization problem with a lower semicontinuous…

This paper is focused on some properties of paramonotone operators on Banach spaces and their application to certain feasibility problems for convex sets in a Hilbert space and convex systems in the Euclidean space. In particular, it shows…

Given a frame in a finite dimensional Hilbert space we construct additive perturbations which decrease the condition number of the frame. By iterating this perturbation, we introduce an algorithm that produces a tight frame in a finite…

Let T be a bounded operator on a Hilbert space H, and F = {f_j: j in J} an at most countable set of vectors in H. In this note, we characterize the pairs {T, F} such that {T^n f: f in F, n in I} form a frame of H, for the cases of I = N_0…
