In this work, we present a novel approach for solving stochastic shape optimization problems. Our method is the extension of the classical stochastic gradient method to infinite-dimensional shape manifolds. We prove convergence of the…

In this note, we study the behaviour of the Lojasiewicz exponent under hyperplane sections and its relation to the order of tangency.

We consider the optimization problem corresponding to the sharp constant in a conformally invariant Sobolev inequality on the $n$-sphere involving an operator of order $2s> n$. In this case the Sobolev exponent is negative. Our results…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of any characteristic. We apply the Hamburger-Noether process of successive quadratic transformations to show the equivalence of two definitions of the {\L}ojasiewicz exponent…

We introduce a generic technique to obtain linear relaxations of semidefinite programs with provable guarantees based on the commutativity of the constraint and the objective matrices. We study conditions under which the optimal value of…

We consider a misspecified optimization problem that requires minimizing of a convex function $f(x;\theta^*)$ in x over a constraint set represented by $h(x;\theta^*)\leq 0$, where $\theta^*$ is an unknown (or misspecified) vector of…

We investigate an inertial algorithm of gradient type in connection with the minimization of a nonconvex differentiable function. The algorithm is formulated in the spirit of Nesterov's accelerated convex gradient method. We show that the…

We develop a unified algebraic and valuative theory of Lojasiewicz exponents for pairs of graded families and filtrations of ideals. Within this framework, local Lojasiewicz exponents, gradient exponents, and exponents at infinity are all…

We consider the problem of minimizing a strongly convex function that depends on an uncertain parameter $\theta$. The uncertainty in the objective function means that the optimum, $x^*(\theta)$, is also a function of $\theta$. We propose an…

In this paper, we consider a class of nonsmooth sum-of-ratios fractional optimization problems with block structure. This model class is ubiquitous and encompasses several important nonsmooth optimization problems in the literature. We…

Inspired by the boolean discrepancy problem, we study the following optimization problem which we term \textsc{Spherical Discrepancy}: given $m$ unit vectors $v_1, \dots, v_m$, find another unit vector $x$ that minimizes $\max_i \langle x,…

In this work, we consider a sequence of stochastic optimization problems following a time-varying distribution via the lens of online optimization. Assuming that the loss function satisfies the Polyak-{\L}ojasiewicz condition, we apply…

In the field of optimal transport theory, an optimal map is known to be a gradient map of a potential function satisfying cost-convexity. In this paper, the Jacobian determinant of a gradient map is shown to be log-concave with respect to a…

In this paper, we show that the total area of two distinct surfaces with Gaussian curvature equal to 1, which are also conformal to the Euclidean unit disk with the same conformal factor on the boundary, must be at least 4{\pi}. In other…

Linear convergence of first-order methods is typically characterized by global optimization conditions whose constants reflect worst-case geometry of the ambient space. In high-dimensional or structured problems, these global constants can…

This paper extends the Concentration-Compactness Principle to Musielak-Orlicz spaces, working in both bounded and unbounded domains. We show that our results include important special cases like classical Orlicz spaces, variable exponent…

In this paper we prescribe a fourth order conformal invariant 9the Paneitz Curvature) on five and six spheres. Using dynamical and topological methods involving the study of critical points at infinity of the associated variational problem,…

We prove that the number of combinatorially distinct causal 3-dimensional triangulations homeomorphic to the 3-dimensional sphere is bounded by an exponential function of the number of tetrahedra. It is also proven that the number of…

Let $f$ be an isolated singularity at the origin of $\mathbb{C}^n$. One of many invariants that can be associated with $f$ is its {\L}ojasiewicz exponent $\mathcal{L}_0 (f)$, which measures, to some extent, the topology of $f$. We give, for…

In this paper, we address the effective degree bound problem for Lasserre's hierarchy of moment-sum-of-squares (SOS) relaxations in polynomial optimization involving $n$ variables. We assume that the first $n$ equality constraint…
