We describe a strategy for solving nonlinear eigenproblems numerically. Our approach is based on the approximation of a vector-valued function, defined as solution of a non-homogeneous version of the eigenproblem. This approximation step is…
In optimization problems, the quality of a candidate solution can be characterized by the optimality gap. For most stochastic optimization problems, this gap must be statistically estimated. We show that for risk-averse problems, standard…
We consider the problem of estimating the covariance matrix of a random vector by observing i.i.d samples and each entry of the sampled vector is missed with probability $p$. Under the standard $L_4-L_2$ moment equivalence assumption, we…
