Recently, the problem of local minima in very high dimensional non-convex optimization has been challenged and the problem of saddle points has been introduced. This paper introduces a dynamic type of normalization that forces the system to…
In this paper we consider the three dimensional exterior Stokes problem and study the solvability of the corresponding continuous and discrete formulations that arise from the coupling of a dual-mixed variational formulation with the…
There are few results on mean field game (MFG) systems where the PDEs are either fully nonlinear or have degenerate diffusions. This paper introduces a problem that combines both difficulties. We prove existence and uniqueness for a…
We study robust convex quadratic programs where the uncertain problem parameters can contain both continuous and integer components. Under the natural boundedness assumption on the uncertainty set, we show that the generic problems are…
Existing error-bound-based analyses for stochastic algorithms that exhibit certain descent properties, such as randomized coordinate descent and randomized projection methods, are often limited in scope and typically lead to overly…
This paper is devoted to the theoretical and numerical investigation of an augmented Lagrangian method for the solution of optimization problems with geometric constraints. Specifically, we study situations where parts of the constraints…
Based on the needs of convergence proofs of preconditioned proximal point methods, we introduce notions of partial strong submonotonicity and partial (metric) subregularity of set-valued maps. We study relationships between these two…
We consider a degenerate nonsmooth and nonconvex optimization problem for which the standard constraint qualification such as the generalized Mangasarian Fromovitz constraint qualification (GMFCQ) may not hold. We use smoothing functions…
We study the critical points of the solution of second elliptic equations in divergence and diagonal form with a bounded and positive definite coefficient, under the assumption that the statement of the Hopf lemma holds (sign assumptions on…
We study a class of nondivergence form second-order degenerate linear parabolic equations in $(-\infty, T) \times {\mathbb R}^d_+$ with the homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition on $(-\infty, T) \times \partial {\mathbb R}^d_+$, where…
In this paper, we finally prove the well-posedness of the linearized R13 moment model, which describes, e.g., rarefied gas flows. As an extension of the classical fluid equations, moment models are robust and have been frequently used, yet…
We propose an alternating subgradient method with non-constant step sizes for solving convex-concave saddle-point problems associated with general convex-concave functions. We assume that the sequence of our step sizes is not summable but…
We introduce a novel monolithic formulation that employs Lagrange multipliers (LMs) to couple a fluid flow governed by the time-dependent Stokes equations with a poroelastic structure described by the Biot equations. The formulation is…
This is a continuation of our previous work entitled \enquote{Alternating Proximity Mapping Method for Convex-Concave Saddle-Point Problems}, in which we proposed the alternating proximal mapping method and showed convergence results on the…
As shown in [15], under some structural assumptions, working on congested traffic problems in general and increasingly dense networks leads, at the limit by {\Gamma}-convergence, to continuous minimization problems posed on measures on…
The aim of this paper is to solve linear semidefinite programs arising from higher-order Lasserre relaxations of unconstrained binary quadratic optimization problems. For this we use an interior point method with a preconditioned conjugate…
Large-scale saddle-point problems arise in such machine learning tasks as GANs and linear models with affine constraints. In this paper, we study distributed saddle-point problems (SPP) with strongly-convex-strongly-concave smooth…
We propose a necessary and sufficient condition for the well-posedness of the linear non-homogeneous Grad moment equations in half-space. The Grad moment system is based on Hermite expansion and regarded as an efficient reduction model of…
The goal of this paper is to study some possibly degenerate elliptic equation in a bounded domain with a nonlinear boundary condition involving measure data. We investigate two types of problems: the first one deals with the laplacian in a…
We consider the smooth convex-concave bilinearly-coupled saddle-point problem, $\min_{\mathbf{x}}\max_{\mathbf{y}}~F(\mathbf{x}) + H(\mathbf{x},\mathbf{y}) - G(\mathbf{y})$, where one has access to stochastic first-order oracles for $F$,…
