In a real Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. Given any function $f$ convex differentiable whose solution set $\argmin_{\mathcal{H}}\,f$ is nonempty, by considering the Proximal Algorithm $x_{k+1}=\text{prox}_{\b_k f}(d x_k)$, where $0<d<1$ and…
Accelerated gradient descent iterations are widely used in optimization. It is known that, in the continuous-time limit, these iterations converge to a second-order differential equation which we refer to as the accelerated gradient flow.…
Convergence of a projected stochastic gradient algorithm is demonstrated for convex objective functionals with convex constraint sets in Hilbert spaces. In the convex case, the sequence of iterates ${u_n}$ converges weakly to a point in the…

We consider the 1-harmonic flow of maps from a bounded domain into a submanifold of a Euclidean space, i.e. the gradient flow of the total variation functional restricted to maps taking values in the manifold. We restrict ourselves to…
In this paper we introduce and study some Hilbert-type operators acting from the function spaces into the sequence spaces. We give some sufficient and necessary conditions for the boundedness and compactness of these Hilbert-type operators.…

Our main theorem is in the generality of the axioms of Hilbert space, and the theory of unbounded operators. Consider two Hilbert spaces such that their intersection contains a fixed vector space D. It is of interest to make a precise…
We study the second-order asymptotic expansion of the $s$-fractional Gagliardo seminorm as $s\to1^-$ in terms of a higher order nonlocal functional. We prove a Mosco-convergence result for the energy functionals and that the $L^2$-gradient…
We study the Mosco-convergence of Cheeger energies on Gromov-Hausdorff converging spaces satisfying different types of curvature dimension conditions. The case of functions of bounded variation is also considered. Applications to the…
In [8], the gradient conjecture of R. Thom was proven for gradient flows of analytic functions on Rn. This result means that the secant at a limit point converges, so that the flow cannot spiral forever. Once the trajectory becomes…
In proper, geodesic Gromov hyperbolic spaces, we investigate discrete-time gradient flows via the proximal point algorithm for unbounded Lipschitz convex functions. Assuming that the target convex function has negative asymptotic slope…
We develop the theory of discrete-time gradient flows for convex functions on Alexandrov spaces with arbitrary upper or lower curvature bounds. We employ different resolvent maps in the upper and lower curvature bound cases to construct…
The proximal point algorithm, which is a well-known tool for finding minima of convex functions, is generalized from the classical Hilbert space framework into a nonlinear setting, namely, geodesic metric spaces of nonpositive curvature. We…
The paper is concerned with the weak convergence of $n$-particle processes to deterministic stationary paths as $n\to\infty$. A Mosco type convergence of a class of bilinear forms is introduced. The Mosco type convergence of bilinear forms…
We extend to the framework of convergence in concentration virtually all the results concerning stability of Sobolev functions and differential operators known to be in place under the stronger measured-Gromov-Hausdorff convergence. These…
