We consider the best approximation problem (BAP) of projecting a point onto the intersection of a number of convex sets. It is known that Dykstra's algorithm is alternating minimization on the dual problem. We extend Dykstra's algorithm so…
We consider a family of parallel methods for constrained optimization based on projected gradient descents along individual coordinate directions. In the case of polyhedral feasible sets, local convergence towards a regular solution occurs…
We show that Dykstra's splitting for projecting onto the intersection of convex sets can be extended to minimize the sum of convex functions and a regularizing quadratic. We give conditions for which convergence to the primal minimizer…
Consider the classical problem of solving a general linear system of equations $Ax=b$. It is well known that the (successively over relaxed) Gauss-Seidel scheme and many of its variants may not converge when $A$ is neither diagonally…
We study the asymptotic behaviour of the well-known Dykstra's algorithm through the lens of proof-theoretical techniques. We provide an elementary proof for the convergence of Dykstra's algorithm in which the standard argument is stripped…
This paper improves the algorithms based on supporting halfspaces and quadratic programming for convex set intersection problems in our earlier paper in several directions. First, we give conditions so that much smaller quadratic programs…
A sequential quadratic programming (SQP) algorithm is designed for nonsmooth optimization problems with upper-C^2 objective functions. Upper-C^2 functions are locally equivalent to difference-of-convex (DC) functions with smooth convex…
Sequential Quadratic Programming (SQP) is a powerful class of algorithms for solving nonlinear optimization problems. Local convergence of SQP algorithms is guaranteed when the Hessian approximation used in each Quadratic Programming…
We study stochastic algorithms for solving nonconvex optimization problems with a convex yet possibly nonsmooth regularizer, which find wide applications in many practical machine learning applications. However, compared to asynchronous…
We study the asymptotic scaling properties of a massively parallel algorithm for discrete-event simulations where the discrete events are Poisson arrivals. The evolution of the simulated time horizon is analogous to a non-equilibrium…
In this paper, we show that simple {Stochastic} subGradient Decent methods with multiple Restarting, named {\bf RSGD}, can achieve a \textit{linear convergence rate} for a class of non-smooth and non-strongly convex optimization problems…
We generalize the hyper-systolic algorithm proposed in [1] for abstract data structures on massive parallel computers with $n_p$ processors. For a problem of size $V$ the communication complexity of the hyper-systolic algorithm is…
In this article, we present a family of numerical approaches to solve high-dimensional linear non-symmetric problems. The principle of these methods is to approximate a function which depends on a large number of variates by a sum of tensor…
We show {\it semidefinite programming} (SDP) feasibility problem is equivalent to solving a {\it convex hull relaxation} (CHR) for a finite system of quadratic equations. On the one hand, this offers a simple description of SDP. On the…
We construct a linear approximation of the solution to the Surface Quasi-Geostrophic Equation in $\mathbb{R}^2$, and obtain a convergence rate in $L^p$ between the solution and this approximation with respect to time. We also demonstrate…
Integral asymptotics play an important role in the analysis of differential equations and in a variety of other settings. In this work, we apply an integral asymptotics approach to study spatially localized solutions of a heterogeneous…
In this paper we study several aspects of extremal spherical symmetric black hole solutions of four dimensional N=1 supergravity coupled to vector and chiral multiplets with the scalar potential turned on. In the asymptotic region the…
A very popular approach for solving stochastic optimization problems is the stochastic gradient descent method (SGD). Although the SGD iteration is computationally cheap and the practical performance of this method may be satisfactory under…
A quadratically constrained quadratic program (QCQP) is an optimization problem in which the objective function is a quadratic function and the feasible region is defined by quadratic constraints. Solving non-convex QCQP to global…
Constrained quadratic programs and Euclidean projections are ubiquitous in engineering, arising in machine learning, estimation, control, and signal processing. Dykstra's algorithm is an iterative scheme for computing the Euclidean…
