This paper introduces an efficient algorithm for computing the best approximation of a given matrix onto the intersection of linear equalities, inequalities and the doubly nonnegative cone (the cone of all positive semidefinite matrices…
Alternating direction methods of multipliers (ADMMs) are popular approaches to handle large scale semidefinite programs that gained attention during the past decade. In this paper, we focus on solving doubly nonnegative programs (DNN),…
Doubly nonnegative (DNN) programming problems are known to be challenging to solve because of their huge number of $\Omega(n^2)$ constraints and $\Omega(n^2)$ variables. In this work, we introduce RNNAL, a method for solving DNN relaxations…
In this paper, we develop a novel primal-dual semismooth Newton method for solving linearly constrained multi-block convex composite optimization problems. First, a differentiable augmented Lagrangian (AL) function is constructed by…
The problem of minimizing a (nonconvex) quadratic form over the unit simplex, referred to as a standard quadratic program, admits an exact convex conic formulation over the computationally intractable cone of completely positive matrices.…
Symmetric cone programming covers a broad class of convex optimization problems, including linear programming, second-order cone programming, and semidefinite programming. Although the augmented Lagrangian method (ALM) is well-suited for…
Square-root Lasso problems are proven robust regression problems. Furthermore, square-root regression problems with structured sparsity also plays an important role in statistics and machine learning. In this paper, we focus on the…
In this paper the simplicial cone constrained convex quadratic programming problem is studied. The optimality conditions of this problem consist in a linear complementarity problem. This fact, under a suitable condition, leads to an…
Motivated by the expressive power of completely positive programming to encode hard optimization problems, many approximation schemes for the completely positive cone have been proposed and successfully used. Most schemes are based on outer…
We introduce Newton-ADMM, a method for fast conic optimization. The basic idea is to view the residuals of consecutive iterates generated by the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) as a set of fixed point equations, and then…
We derive an explicit formula, as well as an efficient procedure, for constructing a generalized Jacobian for the projector of a given square matrix onto the Birkhoff polytope, i.e., the set of doubly stochastic matrices. To guarantee the…
Second-order necessary optimality conditions for nonlinear conic programming problems that depend on a single Lagrange multiplier are usually built under nondegeneracy and strict complementarity. In this paper we establish a condition of…
We develop a decomposition method based on the augmented Lagrangian framework to solve a broad family of semidefinite programming problems, possibly with nonlinear objective functions, nonsmooth regularization, and general linear…
In this paper, we extend and investigate the properties of the semi-smooth Newton method when applied to a general projection equation in finite dimensional spaces. We first present results concerning Clarke's generalized Jacobian of the…
In this work we develop and analyze a semi-smooth Newton method for the general nonlinear conic programming problem. In particular, we study the problem with a generalized simplicial cone, i.e., the image of a symmetric cone under a linear…
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…
We introduce a cutting-plane framework for nonconvex quadratic programs (QPs) that progressively tightens convex relaxations. Our approach leverages the doubly nonnegative (DNN) relaxation to compute strong lower bounds and generate…
In this study, we examine the various extensions of the doubly nonnegative (DNN) cone, frequently used in completely positive programming (CPP) to achieve a tighter relaxation than the positive semidefinite cone. To provide tighter…
The sparse nonlinear programming (SNP) problem has wide applications in signal and image processing, machine learning, pattern recognition, finance and management, etc. However, the computational challenge posed by SNP has not yet been well…
We introduce a quadratically convergent semismooth Newton method for nonlinear semidefinite programming that eliminates the need for the generalized Jacobian regularity, a common yet stringent requirement in existing approaches. Our…
