Our interest lies in developing some efficient methods for minimizing the sum of two geodesically convex functions on Hadamard manifolds, with the aim to enhance the convergence of the Douglas-Rachford algorithm in Hadamard manifolds.…
The problem of finding a minimizer of the sum of two convex functions - or, more generally, that of finding a zero of the sum of two maximally monotone operators - is of central importance in variational analysis. Perhaps the most popular…
In recent times the Douglas-Rachford algorithm has been observed empirically to solve a variety of nonconvex feasibility problems including those of a combinatorial nature. For many of these problems current theory is not sufficient to…
Many iterative methods for solving optimization or feasibility problems have been invented, and often convergence of the iterates to some solution is proven. Under favourable conditions, one might have additional bounds on the distance of…
The Douglas-Rachford splitting algorithm is a classical optimization method that has found many applications. When specialized to two normal cone operators, it yields an algorithm for finding a point in the intersection of two convex sets.…
We shed light on the structure of the "three-operator" version of the forward-Douglas--Rachford splitting algorithm for finding a zero of a sum of maximally monotone operators $A + B + C$, where $B$ is cocoercive, involving only the…
Finding a zero of a sum of maximally monotone operators is a fundamental problem in modern optimization and nonsmooth analysis. Assuming that the resolvents of the operators are available, this problem can be tackled with the…
Recently, several authors have shown local and global convergence rate results for Douglas-Rachford splitting under strong monotonicity, Lipschitz continuity, and cocoercivity assumptions. Most of these focus on the convex optimization…
Motivated by nonconvex, inconsistent feasibility problems in imaging, the relaxed alternating averaged reflections algorithm, or relaxed Douglas-Rachford algorithm (DR$\lambda$), was first proposed over a decade ago. Convergence results for…
The Douglas-Rachford (DR) method is a widely used method for finding a point in the intersection of two closed convex sets (feasibility problem). However, the method converges weakly and the associated rate of convergence is hard to analyze…
For the inclusion problem involving two maximal monotone operators, under the metric subregularity of the composite operator, we derive the linear convergence of the generalized proximal point algorithm and several splitting algorithms,…
We analyse the behaviour of the newly introduced cyclic Douglas-Rachford algorithm for finding a point in the intersection of a finite number of closed convex sets. This work considers the case in which the target intersection set is…
The Douglas-Rachford splitting algorithm was originally proposed in 1956 to solve a system of linear equations arising from the discretization of a partial differential equation. In 1979, Lions and Mercier brought forward a very powerful…
The Douglas-Rachford method, a projection algorithm designed to solve continuous optimization problems, forms the basis of a useful heuristic for solving combinatorial optimization problems. In order to successfully use the method, it is…
We provide new insight into the convergence properties of the Douglas-Rachford algorithm for the problem $\min_x \{f(x)+g(x)\}$, where $f$ and $g$ are convex functions. Our approach relies on and highlights the natural primal-dual symmetry…
In recent years, a distributed Douglas-Rachford splitting method (DDRSM) has been proposed to tackle multi-block separable convex optimization problems. This algorithm offers relatively easier subproblems and greater efficiency for…
In this paper the degenerate preconditioned proximal point algorithm will be combined with the idea of varying preconditioners leading to the degenerate variable metric proximal point algorithm. The weak convergence of the resulting…
We consider the monotone inclusion problem with a sum of 3 operators, in which 2 are monotone and 1 is monotone-Lipschitz. The classical Douglas--Rachford and Forward-backward-forward methods respectively solve the monotone inclusion…
In this expository paper, we show how to use the Douglas-Rachford algorithm as a successful heuristic for finding magic squares. The Douglas-Rachford algorithm is an iterative projection method for solving feasibility problems. Although its…
The primal-dual Douglas-Rachford method is a well-known algorithm to solve optimization problems written as convex-concave saddle-point problems. Each iteration involves solving a linear system involving a linear operator and its adjoint.…
