We study the convergence of the adaptive Douglas--Rachford (aDR) algorithm for solving a multioperator inclusion problem involving the sum of maximally comonotone operators. To address such problems, we adopt a product space reformulation…

This paper aims to develop a Newton-type method to solve a class of nonconvex composite programs. In particular, the nonsmooth part is possibly nonconvex. To tackle the nonconvexity, we develop a notion of strong prox-regularity which is…
