In this preprint we consider generalizations of discrete and integral Cauchy--Bunyakovskii inequalities by the method of mean values with some applications. Mostly the material is compiled as a short survey but some results are proved. Main…
When training neural networks with low-precision computation, rounding errors often cause stagnation or are detrimental to the convergence of the optimizers; in this paper we study the influence of rounding errors on the convergence of the…
Nonconvex and nonsmooth optimization problems are important and challenging for statistics and machine learning. In this paper, we propose Projected Proximal Gradient Descent (PPGD) which solves a class of nonconvex and nonsmooth…

The purpose of this paper is to extend the full convergence results of the classic GLL-type (Grippo-Lampariello-Lucidi) nonmonotone methods to nonconvex and nonsmooth optimization. We propose a novel iterative framework for the minimization…
We investigate geometric and functional inequalities for the class of log-concave probability sequences. We prove dilation inequalities for log-concave probability measures on the integers. A functional analogue of this geometric inequality…
The Brunn-Minkowski and Pr\'{e}kopa-Leindler inequalities admit a variety of proofs that are inspired by convexity. Nevertheless, the former holds for compact sets and the latter for integrable functions so it seems that convexity has no…
Two kinds of novel generalizations of Nesbitt's inequality are explored in various cases regarding dimensions and parameters in this article. Some other cases are also discussed elaborately by using the semiconcave-semiconvex theorem. The…

We study the convergence issue for inexact descent algorithm (employing general step sizes) for multiobjective optimizations on general Riemannian manifolds (without curvature constraints). Under the assumption of the local…
The hypercontractive inequality is a fundamental result in analysis, with many applications throughout discrete mathematics, theoretical computer science, combinatorics and more. So far, variants of this inequality have been proved mainly…
The paper proposes and develops a novel inexact gradient method (IGD) for minimizing C1-smooth functions with Lipschitzian gradients, i.e., for problems of C1,1 optimization. We show that the sequence of gradients generated by IGD converges…
Let $F(x) := (f_{ij}(x))_{i=1,\ldots,p; j=1,\ldots,q},$ be a ($p\times q$)-real polynomial matrix and let $f(x)$ be the smallest singular value function of $F(x).$ In this paper, we first give the following {\em nonsmooth} version of \L…

In this paper we propose a generalized condition for a sharp minimum, somewhat similar to the inexact oracle proposed recently by Devolder-Glineur-Nesterov. The proposed approach makes it possible to extend the class of applicability of…
In [2] we characterized in terms of a quadratic growth condition various metric regularity properties of the subdifferential of a lower semicontinuous convex function acting in a Hilbert space. Motivated by some recent results in [16] where…
