The goal of this paper is to present two algorithms for solving systems of inclusion problems, with all component of the systems being a sum of two maximal monotone operators. The algorithms are variants of the forward-backward splitting…
We provide formulas for projectors onto a polyhedral set, i.e. the intersection of a finite number of halfspaces. To this aim we formulate the problem of finding the projection as a convex optimization problem and we solve explicitly…
Building on the blueprint from Goemans and Williamson (1995) for the Max-Cut problem, we construct a polynomial-time approximation algorithm for orthogonally constrained quadratic optimization problems. First, we derive a semidefinite…
We address an algorithm for the least squares fitting of a subset of the eigenvalues of an unknown Hermitian matrix lying an an affine subspace, called the Lift and Projection (LP) method, due to Chen and Chu (SIAM Journal on Numerical…
We introduce a comprehensive framework for analyzing convergence rates for infinite dimensional linear programming problems (LPs) within the context of the moment-sum-of-squares hierarchy. Our primary focus is on extending the existing…
We describe new methods for deciding the stability of switching systems. The methods build on two ideas previously appeared in the literature: the polytope norm iterative construction, and the lifting procedure. Moreover, the combination of…
This paper addresses a class of nonsmooth and nonconvex optimization problems defined on complete Riemannian manifolds. The objective function has a composite structure, combining convex, differentiable, and lower semicontinuous terms,…
A key question in many low-rank problems throughout optimization, machine learning, and statistics is to characterize the convex hulls of simple low-rank sets and judiciously apply these convex hulls to obtain strong yet computationally…
We study the minimum number of constraints needed to formulate random instances of the maximum stable set problem via linear programs (LPs), in two distinct models. In the uniform model, the constraints of the LP are not allowed to depend…
Nonconvex optimization problems with an L1-constraint are ubiquitous, and are found in many application domains including: optimal control of hybrid systems, machine learning and statistics, and operations research. This paper shows that…

This article presents a numerical illustration of a recently proposed strongly polynomial-time algorithm for the general linear programming (LP) problem. Each iteration of the proposed algorithm consists of two Gauss-Jordan pivoting…
For $q$ generic, Jimbo showed that $q$-tensor space $V_q^{\otimes r}$ (where $V_q$ is the $n$-dimensional vector representation) satisfies Schur--Weyl duality with respect to the commuting actions of the quantized enveloping algebra…
In this paper we derive a moment relaxation for large-scale nonsmooth optimization problems with graphical structure and spherical constraints. In contrast to classical moment relaxations for global polynomial optimization that suffer from…
Fast matrix multiplication algorithms may be useful, provided that their running time is good in practice. Particularly, the leading coefficient of their arithmetic complexity needs to be small. Many sub-cubic algorithms have large leading…
This paper is devoted to the study of the MaxMinDegree Arborescence (MMDA) problem in layered directed graphs of depth $\ell\le O(\log n/\log \log n)$, which is an important special case of the Santa Claus problem. Obtaining a…
In this paper we consider the use of extended formulations in LP-based algorithms for mixed integer conic quadratic programming (MICQP). Extended formulations have been used by Vielma, Ahmed and Nemhauser (2008) and Hijazi, Bonami and…
We give the first approximation algorithm for mixed packing and covering semidefinite programs (SDPs) with polylogarithmic dependence on width. Mixed packing and covering SDPs constitute a fundamental algorithmic primitive with recent…
We establish new upper bounds for the numerical radius of bounded linear operators on a complex Hilbert space by introducing weighted geometric means of the modulus of an operator and its adjoint. This approach yields a family of…
We collect and organise known results and add some new ones of the following nature: if A is a bounded operator in a Hilbert or Banach space, does there exist a nonconstant polynomial p(z) such that p(A) is "simpler", "nicer" than A. The…
