Quasi-convex optimization acts a pivotal part in many fields including economics and finance; the subgradient method is an effective iterative algorithm for solving large-scale quasi-convex optimization problems. In this paper, we…

We provide a quick overview of the class of $\alpha$-weakly-quasi-convex problems and its relationships with other problem classes. We show that the previously known Sequential Subspace Optimization method retains its optimal convergence…

The goal of this paper is to study approaches to bridge the gap between first-order and second-order type methods for composite convex programs. Our key observations are: i) Many well-known operator splitting methods, such as…

In this paper we present deflation and augmentation techniques that have been designed to accelerate the convergence of Krylov subspace methods for the solution of linear systems of equations. We review numerical approaches both for linear…

GMRES is a popular Krylov subspace method for solving linear systems of equations involving a general non-Hermitian coefficient matrix. The conventional bounds on GMRES convergence involve polynomial approximation problems in the complex…

Gerber and Chopin (2015) recently introduced Sequential quasi-Monte Carlo (SQMC) algorithms as an efficient way to perform filtering in state-space models. The basic idea is to replace random variables with low-discrepancy point sets, so as…

We consider several classes of highly important semidefinite optimization problems that involve both a convex objective function (smooth or nonsmooth) and additional linear or nonlinear smooth and convex constraints, which are ubiquitous in…

Fixed a continuous kernel K on the $d$-dimensional torus, we consider a generalization of the univariate $sk$-spline to the torus, associated with the kernel K. It is proved an estimate which provides the rate of convergence of a given…

This paper proposes a squared smoothing Newton method via the Huber smoothing function for solving semidefinite programming problems (SDPs). We first study the fundamental properties of the matrix-valued mapping defined upon the Huber…

The proximal point algorithm is a widely used tool for solving a variety of convex optimization problems such as finding zeros of maximally monotone operators, fixed points of nonexpansive mappings, as well as minimizing convex functions.…

A coarse grid correction (CGC) approach is proposed to enhance the efficiency of the matrix exponential and $\varphi$ matrix function evaluations. The approach is intended for iterative methods computing the matrix-vector products with…

Composite optimization problems, where the sum of a smooth and a merely lower semicontinuous function has to be minimized, are often tackled numerically by means of proximal gradient methods as soon as the lower semicontinuous part of the…

This paper explores variants of the subspace iteration algorithm for computing approximate invariant subspaces. The standard subspace iteration approach is revisited and new variants that exploit gradient-type techniques combined with a…

In this paper, we design a regularization-free algorithm for high-dimensional support vector machines (SVMs) by integrating over-parameterization with Nesterov's smoothing method, and provide theoretical guarantees for the induced implicit…

In a Hilbertian framework, for the minimization of a general convex differentiable function $f$, we introduce new inertial dynamics and algorithms that generate trajectories and iterates that converge fastly towards the minimizer of $f$…

We consider a Krylov subspace approximation method for the symmetric differential Riccati equation $\dot{X} = AX + XA^T + Q - XSX$, $X(0)=X_0$. The method we consider is based on projecting the large scale equation onto a Krylov subspace…

We formulate two classes of first-order algorithms more general than previously studied for minimizing smooth and strongly convex or, respectively, smooth and convex functions. We establish sufficient conditions, via new discrete Lyapunov…

Convergence of non-uniform spherical averages is obtained for measure-preserving actions of free groups. This result generalizes theorems of Grigorichuk, Nevo and Stein [in particular, a simpler proof of the Nevo-Stein theorem about uniform…

Some results on the approximation of functions from the Sobolev spaces on metric graphs by step functions are obtained. The estimates are uniform with respect to all graphs of a given finite length, and the constant factors in the…

For rescaled additive functionals of the sine-process, upper bounds are obtained for their speed of convergence to the Gaussian distribution with respect to the Kolmogorov-Smirnov metric. Under scaling with coefficient $R$ the…
