In this two-part study we develop a unified approach to the analysis of the global exactness of various penalty and augmented Lagrangian functions for finite-dimensional constrained optimization problems. This approach allows one to verify…
The goal of this article is to study necessary and sufficient conditions for the exactness of penalty functions and the existence of global saddle points of augmented Lagrangians for well-posed (in a suitable sense) constrained optimization…
In the second part of our study we introduce the concept of global extended exactness of penalty and augmented Lagrangian functions, and derive the localization principle in the extended form. The main idea behind the extended exactness…
In this article, we present new general results on existence of augmented Lagrange multipliers. We define a penalty function associated with an augmented Lagrangian, and prove that, under a certain growth assumption on the augmenting…
In this two-part study, we develop a general theory of the so-called exact augmented Lagrangians for constrained optimization problems in Hilbert spaces. In contrast to traditional nonsmooth exact penalty functions, these augmented…
We develop a unified theory of augmented Lagrangians for nonconvex optimization problems that encompasses both duality theory and convergence analysis of primal-dual augmented Lagrangian methods in the infinite dimensional setting. Our goal…
This paper is devoted to the theoretical and numerical investigation of an augmented Lagrangian method for the solution of optimization problems with geometric constraints. Specifically, we study situations where parts of the constraints…
In the past years, augmented Lagrangian methods have been successfully applied to several classes of non-convex optimization problems, inspiring new developments in both theory and practice. In this paper we bring most of these recent…
There are many important practical optimization problems whose feasible regions are not known to be nonempty or not, and optimizers of the objective function with the least constraint violation prefer to be found. A natural way for dealing…
This paper is concerned with augmented Lagrangian methods for the treatment of fully convex composite optimization problems. We extend the classical relationship between augmented Lagrangian methods and the proximal point algorithm to the…
We investigate finite-dimensional constrained structured optimization problems, featuring composite objective functions and set-membership constraints. Offering an expressive yet simple language, this problem class provides a modeling…
In this paper, we revisit the augmented Lagrangian method for a class of nonsmooth convex optimization. We present the Lagrange optimality system of the augmented Lagrangian associated with the problems, and establish its connections with…
We propose an algorithm for general nonlinear conic programming which does not require the knowledge of the full cone, but rather a simpler, more tractable, approximation of it. We prove that the algorithm satisfies a strong global…
By exploiting double-penalty terms for the primal subproblem, we develop a novel relaxed augmented Lagrangian method for solving a family of convex optimization problems subject to equality or inequality constraints. The method is then…
We consider a general multi-agent convex optimization problem where the agents are to collectively minimize a global objective function subject to a global inequality constraint, a global equality constraint, and a global constraint set.…
Based on the complete-lattice approach, a new Lagrangian duality theory for set-valued optimization problems is presented. In contrast to previous approaches, set-valued versions for the known scalar formulas involving infimum and supremum…
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…
Primal-dual gradient dynamics that find saddle points of a Lagrangian have been widely employed for handling constrained optimization problems. Building on existing methods, we extend the augmented primal-dual gradient dynamics (Aug-PDGD)…
A broad class of optimization problems can be cast in composite form, that is, considering the minimization of the composition of a lower semicontinuous function with a differentiable mapping. This paper investigates the versatile template…
We introduce a primal-dual framework for solving linearly constrained nonconvex composite optimization problems. Our approach is based on a newly developed Lagrangian, which incorporates \emph{false penalty} and dual smoothing terms. This…
