In this paper, we attempt to compare two distinct branches of research on second-order optimization methods. The first one studies self-concordant functions and barriers, the main assumption being that the third derivative of the objective…
Variational convexity, together with ist strong counterpart, of extended-real-valued functions has been recently introduced by Rockafellar. In this paper we present second-order characterizations of these properties, i.e., conditions using…
We characterize approximate global optimal solutions (${\varepsilon}$-optima) to reverse optimization problems, namely, problems whose non-convex constraint is of the form $h(x) \geq 0$. This issue has not been addressed previously in the…
In this paper we investigate the sensitivity analysis of parameterized nonlinear variational inequalities of second kind in a Hilbert space. The challenge of the present work is to take into account a perturbation on all the data of the…
Second-order optimization methods exhibit fast convergence to critical points, however, in nonconvex optimization, these methods often require restrictive step-sizes to ensure a monotonically decreasing objective function. In the presence…
Doubly diffusive convection is considered in a vertical slot where horizontal temperature and solutal variations provide competing effects to the fluid density while allowing the existence of a conduction state. In this configuration, the…
