We construct a convergent family of outer approximations for the problem of optimizing polynomial functions over convex bodies subject to polynomial constraints. This is achieved by generalizing the polarization hierarchy, which has…

We propose a novel linesearch variant of the trust region normal map-based semismooth Newton method developed in [Ouyang and Milzarek, Math. Program. 212(1-2), 389--435 (2025)] for solving a class of nonsmooth, nonconvex composite-type…

We characterize the solution of a broad class of convex optimization problems that address the reconstruction of a function from a finite number of linear measurements. The underlying hypothesis is that the solution is decomposable as a…

We investigate two systematic constructions of inverse-closed subalgebras of a given Banach algebra or operator algebra A, both of which are inspired by classical principles of approximation theory. The first construction requires a closed…

In this paper, we study the topological conjugacy between the linear generalized ODEs (for short, GODEs) \[ \frac{dx}{d\tau}=D[A(t)x] \] and their nonlinear perturbation \[ \frac{dx}{d\tau}=D[A(t)x+F(x,t)] \] on Banach space $\mathscr{X}$,…

Let $A$ be a von Neumann algebra with no direct summand of Type $\roman I_2$, and let $\scr P(A)$ be its lattice of projections. Let $X$ be a Banach space. Let $m\:\scr P(A)\to X$ be a bounded function such that $m(p+q)=m(p)+m(q)$ whenever…

Let B(X) be the algebra of all bounded linear operators on a complex Banach space X of dimension at least three. For an arbitrary nonzero complex number t we determine the form of mappings f: B(X)-->B(X) with sufficiently large range such…

These draft notes are from a graduate course given by the author in Berkeley during the spring semester of 2005. They cover the basic ideas of a new, geometric approach to geometric measure theory. They begin with a new theory of exterior…

Normal forms allow the use of a restricted class of coordinate transformations (typically homogeneous polynomials) to put the bifurcations found in nonlinear dynamical systems into a few standard forms. We investigate here the consequences…

We study dentable maps from a closed convex subset of a Banach space into a metric space as an attempt of generalize the Radon-Nikod\'ym property to a "less linear" frame. We note that a certain part of the theory can be developed in rather…

Superlinear convergence has been an elusive goal for black-box nonsmooth optimization. Even in the convex case, the subgradient method is very slow, and while some cutting plane algorithms, including traditional bundle methods, are popular…

In the present paper, we consider the semilocal convergence problems of the two-step Newton method for solving nonlinear operator equation in Banach spaces. Under the assumption that the first derivative of the operator satisfies a…

The minimization of the action of a QFT with a constraint dictated by the block averaging procedure is an important part of Ba{\l}aban's approach to renormalization. It is particularly interesting for QFTs with non-trivial target spaces,…

We study the composite convex optimization problems with a Quasi-Self-Concordant smooth component. This problem class naturally interpolates between classic Self-Concordant functions and functions with Lipschitz continuous Hessian.…

Many classical problems in convex geometry can be cast as optimization problems under certain containment conditions. The arguably best-understood example is volume-maximization of convex bodies contained in other convex bodies, where the…

A special class of Jordan algebras over a field $F$ of characteristic zero is considered. Such an algebra consists of an $r$-dimensional subspace of the vector space of all square matrices of a fixed order $n$ over $F$. It contains the…

A linear functional of an object from a convex symmetric set can be optimally estimated, in a worst-case sense, by a linear functional of observations made on the object. This well-known fact is extended here to a nonlinear setting: other…
