This paper is concerned with two-block separable convex minimization problems with linear constraints, for which it is either impossible or too expensive to obtain the exact solutions of the subproblems involved in the proximal ADMM…

Nonconvex and structured optimization problems arise in many engineering applications that demand scalable and distributed solution methods. The study of the convergence properties of these methods is in general difficult due to the…

This paper considers decentralized dynamic optimization problems where nodes of a network try to minimize a sequence of time-varying objective functions in a real-time scheme. At each time slot, nodes have access to different summands of an…

The alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) is widely used for solving large-scale semidefinite programs (SDPs), yet on instances with multiple primal-dual optimal solution pairs, it often enters prolonged slow-convergence…

In this paper, we propose a new decomposition approach named the proximal primal dual algorithm (Prox-PDA) for smooth nonconvex linearly constrained optimization problems. The proposed approach is primal-dual based, where the primal step…

We investigate a primal-dual (PD) method for the saddle point problem (SPP) that uses a linear approximation of the primal function instead of the standard proximal step, resulting in a linearized PD (LPD) method. For convex-strongly…

We extend a primal-dual fixed point algorithm (PDFP) proposed in [5] to solve two kinds of separable multi-block minimization problems, arising in signal processing and imaging science. This work shows the flexibility of applying PDFP…

We propose a modified primal-dual method for general convex optimization problems with changing constraints. We obtain properties of Lagrangian saddle points for these problems which enable us to establish convergence of the proposed…

Distributed optimization is often widely attempted and innovated as an attractive and preferred methodology to solve large-scale problems effectively in a localized and coordinated manner. Thus, it is noteworthy that the methodology of…

The aim of this manuscript is to approach by means of first order differential equations/inclusions convex programming problems with two-block separable linear constraints and objectives, whereby (at least) one of the components of the…

Alternating direction methods of multipliers (ADMMs) are popular approaches to handle large scale semidefinite programs that gained attention during the past decade. In this paper, we focus on solving doubly nonnegative programs (DNN),…

This paper proposes and analyzes a dampened proximal alternating direction method of multipliers (DP.ADMM) for solving linearly-constrained nonconvex optimization problems where the smooth part of the objective function is nonseparable.…

In this paper we apply an augmented Lagrange method to a class of semilinear elliptic optimal control problems with pointwise state constraints. We show strong convergence of subsequences of the primal variables to a local solution of the…

In this paper, we develop a new asymmetric framework for solving primal-dual problems of Conic Optimization by Interior-Point Methods (IPMs). It allows development of efficient methods for problems, where the dual formulation is simpler…

Optimal control problems without control costs in general do not possess solutions due to the lack of coercivity. However, unilateral constraints together with the assumption of existence of strictly positive solutions of a pre-adjoint…

Consider the minimization of a nonconvex differentiable function over a polyhedron. A popular primal-dual first-order method for this problem is to perform a gradient projection iteration for the augmented Lagrangian function and then…

We present FilterDDP, a differential dynamic programming algorithm for solving discrete-time, optimal control problems (OCPs) with nonlinear equality constraints. Unlike prior methods based on merit functions or the augmented Lagrangian…

Many problems in machine learning and other fields can be (re)for-mulated as linearly constrained separable convex programs. In most of the cases, there are multiple blocks of variables. However, the traditional alternating direction method…

In this paper we propose a corrected semi-proximal ADMM (alternating direction method of multipliers) for the general $p$-block $(p\!\ge 3)$ convex optimization problems with linear constraints, aiming to resolve the dilemma that almost all…

This paper presents the design and analysis of a Hybrid High-Order (HHO) approximation for a distributed optimal control problem governed by the Poisson equation. We propose three distinct schemes to address unconstrained control problems…
