This paper presents a canonical dual method for solving a quadratic discrete value selection problem subjected to inequality constraints. The problem is first transformed into a problem with quadratic objective and 0-1 integer variables.…

The paper introduces several new concepts for solving nonconvex or nonsmooth optimization problems, including convertible nonconvex function, exact convertible nonconvex function and differentiable convertible nonconvex function. It is…

We study the stochastic optimization of canonical correlation analysis (CCA), whose objective is nonconvex and does not decouple over training samples. Although several stochastic gradient based optimization algorithms have been recently…

The study of convex functions - in particular, of their optimization (really minimization) is one of the most important fields of applied mathematics. Convexity seems to be one of those incredibly well-chosen hypotheses which is just…

The aim of this paper is to implement some new techniques, based on conjugate duality in convex optimization, for proving the existence of global error bounds for convex inequality systems. We deal first of all with systems described via…

This paper presents a detailed proof of the triality theorem for a class of fourth-order polynomial optimization problems. The method is based on linear algebra but it solves an open problem on the double-min duality left in 2003. Results…

The first part of this work established the foundations of a radial duality between nonnegative optimization problems, inspired by the work of (Renegar, 2016). Here we utilize our radial duality theory to design and analyze projection-free…

We present a general method, based on conjugate duality, for solving a convex minimization problem without assuming unnecessary topological restrictions on the constraint set. It leads to dual equalities and characterizations of the…

Geometric duality theory for multiple objective linear programming problems turned out to be very useful for the development of efficient algorithms to generate or approximate the whole set of nondominated points in the outcome space. This…

We study the convex duality method for robust utility maximization in the presence of a random endowment. When the underlying price process is a locally bounded semimartingale, we show that the fundamental duality relation holds true for a…

In this article we develop a duality principle suitable for a large class of problems in optimization. The main result is obtained through basic tools of convex analysis and duality theory. We establish a correct relation between the…

By applying the perturbation function approach, we propose the Lagrangian and the conjugate duals for minimization problems of the sum of two, generally nonconvex, functions. The main tools are the $\Phi$-convexity theory and minimax…

DY Gao solely or together with some of his collaborators applied his Canonical duality theory (CDT) for solving some quadratic optimization problems with quadratic constraints. Unfortunately, in almost all papers we read on CDT there are…

This article develops a duality principle for a class of optimization problems in $\mathbb{R}^n$. The results are obtained based on standard tools of convex analysis and on a well known result of Toland for D.C. optimization. Global…

For a primal-dual pair of conic linear problems that are described by convex cones $S\subset X$, $T\subset Y$, bilinear symmetric objective functions $\langle\cdot,\cdot\rangle_X$, $\langle\cdot,\cdot\rangle_Y$ and a linear operator…

A result of existence of a nonnegative and a nontrivial solution is proved via critical point theorems for non smooth functionals. The equation considered presents a convex part and a nonlinearity which changes sign.

This paper studies convex problems of Bolza in the conjugate duality framework of Rockafellar. We parameterize the problem by a general Borel measure which has direct economic interpretation in problems of financial economics. We derive a…

(Renegar, 2016) introduced a novel approach to transforming generic conic optimization problems into unconstrained, uniformly Lipschitz continuous minimization. We introduce {\it radial transformations} generalizing these ideas, equipped…

We consider the problem of minimizing a sum of non-convex functions over a compact domain, subject to linear inequality and equality constraints. Approximate solutions can be found by solving a convexified version of the problem, in which…

We prove sufficient and necessary conditions ensuring zero duality gap for Lagrangian duality in some classes of nonconvex optimization problems. To this aim, we use the $\Phi$-convexity theory and minimax theorems for $\Phi$-convex…
