In this paper we propose distributed dual gradient algorithms for linearly constrained separable convex problems and analyze their rate of convergence under different assumptions. Under the strong convexity assumption on the primal…

When the objective has Lipschitz continuous $p$th-order derivatives, it is known that convex-concave minimax problems can be solved with $\mathcal{O}(\epsilon^{-2/(p+1)})$ $p$th-order oracle calls. This complexity upper bound was speculated…

We present two approximate versions of the proximal subgradient method for minimizing the sum of two convex functions (not necessarily differentiable). The algorithms involve, at each iteration, inexact evaluations of the proximal operator…

Exploiting higher-order derivatives in convex optimization is known at least since 1970's. In each iteration higher-order (also called tensor) methods minimize a regularized Taylor expansion of the objective function, which leads to faster…

We introduce new optimized first-order methods for smooth unconstrained convex minimization. Drori and Teboulle recently described a numerical method for computing the $N$-iteration optimal step coefficients in a class of first-order…

We study first-order methods (FOMs) for solving \emph{composite nonconvex nonsmooth} optimization with linear constraints. Recently, the lower complexity bounds of FOMs on finding an ($\varepsilon,\varepsilon$)-KKT point of the considered…

In this paper, we propose two novel non-stationary first-order primal-dual algorithms to solve nonsmooth composite convex optimization problems. Unlike existing primal-dual schemes where the parameters are often fixed, our methods use…

Frequently, when dealing with many machine learning models, optimization problems appear to be challenging due to a limited understanding of the constructions and characterizations of the objective functions in these problems. Therefore,…

Primal-dual algorithm (PDA) is a classic and popular scheme for convex-concave saddle point problems. It is universally acknowledged that the proximal terms in the subproblems about the primal and dual variables are crucial to the…

The optimistic gradient method has seen increasing popularity for solving convex-concave saddle point problems. To analyze its iteration complexity, a recent work [arXiv:1906.01115] proposed an interesting perspective that interprets this…

In this paper, we propose an inertial accelerated primal-dual method for the linear equality constrained convex optimization problem. When the objective function has a ``nonsmooth + smooth'' composite structure, we further propose an…

This paper improves the state-of-the-art rate of a first-order algorithm for solving entropy regularized optimal transport. The resulting rate for approximating the optimal transport (OT) has been improved from…

"Classical" First Order (FO) algorithms of convex optimization, such as Mirror Descent algorithm or Nesterov's optimal algorithm of smooth convex optimization, are well known to have optimal (theoretical) complexity estimates which do not…

In this paper we study $p$-order methods for unconstrained minimization of convex functions that are $p$-times differentiable ($p\geq 2$) with $\nu$-H\"{o}lder continuous $p$th derivatives. We propose tensor schemes with and without…

In recent years, there have been significant advances in efficiently solving $\ell_s$-regression using linear system solvers and $\ell_2$-regression [Adil-Kyng-Peng-Sachdeva, J. ACM'24]. Would efficient smoothed $\ell_p$-norm solvers lead…

The standard assumption for proving linear convergence of first order methods for smooth convex optimization is the strong convexity of the objective function, an assumption which does not hold for many practical applications. In this…

In this paper, we propose a unified two-phase scheme to accelerate any high-order regularized tensor approximation approach on the smooth part of a composite convex optimization model. The proposed scheme has the advantage of not needing to…

In this paper, we present a new Hyperfast Second-Order Method with convergence rate $O(N^{-5})$ up to a logarithmic factor for the convex function with Lipshitz the third derivative. This method based on two ideas. The first comes from the…

In this paper, we propose a descent method for composite optimization problems with linear operators. Specifically, we first design a structure-exploiting preconditioner tailored to the linear operator so that the resulting preconditioned…

This paper proposes a universal algorithm for convex minimization problems of the composite form $g_0(x)+h(g_1(x),\dots, g_m(x)) + u(x)$. We allow each $g_j$ to independently range from being nonsmooth Lipschitz to smooth, from convex to…
