We propose a novel continuous-time algorithm for inequality-constrained convex optimization inspired by proportional-integral control. Unlike the popular primal-dual gradient dynamics, our method includes a proportional term to control the…
This paper considers continuous-time coordination algorithms for networks of agents that seek to collectively solve a general class of nonsmooth convex optimization problems with an inherent distributed structure. Our algorithm design…
We study a stochastic first order primal-dual method for solving convex-concave saddle point problems over real reflexive Banach spaces using Bregman divergences and relative smoothness assumptions, in which we allow for stochastic error in…
Trajectory optimization is an efficient approach for solving optimal control problems for complex robotic systems. It relies on two key components: first the transcription into a sparse nonlinear program, and second the corresponding solver…
A novel Follow-the-Perturbed-Leader type algorithm is proposed and analyzed for solving general long-term constrained optimization problems in an online manner, where the target and constraint functions are oblivious adversarially generated…
This paper develops a robust fixed time optimization framework for constrained problems that guarantees exact constraint satisfaction and convergence to KKT points within fixed time , independent of initial conditions. The approach treats…
In this paper, we propose a primal-dual algorithm with a novel momentum term using the partial gradients of the coupling function that can be viewed as a generalization of the method proposed by Chambolle and Pock in 2016 to solve saddle…
This paper addresses a class of general nonsmooth and nonconvex composite optimization problems subject to nonlinear equality constraints. We assume that a part of the objective function and the functional constraints exhibit local…
This paper proposes a projection-free primal-dual dynamics for the nonsmooth composite optimization problems with equality and inequality constraints. To deal with optimization constraints, this paper departs from the use of gradient…

In the article we present a general theory of augmented Lagrangian functions for cone constrained optimization problems that allows one to study almost all known augmented Lagrangians for cone constrained programs within a unified…
In this paper, we consider a nonconvex optimization problem with nonlinear equality constraints. We assume that both, the objective function and the functional constraints are locally smooth. For solving this problem, we propose a…
We develop an efficient method for solving non-convex constrained optimization problems that are pervasive in economics. The optimal solution to these problems often involves randomization. We employ a Lagrangian framework and prove that…
Optimization problems with convex quadratic cost and polyhedral constraints are ubiquitous in signal processing, automatic control and decision-making. We consider here an enlarged problem class that allows to encode logical conditions and…

We present distributed subgradient methods for min-max problems with agreement constraints on a subset of the arguments of both the convex and concave parts. Applications include constrained minimization problems where each constraint is a…
Primal-dual methods for solving convex optimization problems with functional constraints often exhibit a distinct two-stage behavior. Initially, they converge towards a solution at a sublinear rate. Then, after a certain point, the method…
In this paper, we design an inertial accelerated primal-dual algorithm to address the convex-concave saddle point problem, which is formulated as $\min_{x}\max_{y} f(x) + \langle Kx, y \rangle - g(y)$. Remarkably, both functions $f$ and $g$…

We study the performance of stochastic first-order methods for finding saddle points of convex-concave functions. A notorious challenge faced by such methods is that the gradients can grow arbitrarily large during optimization, which may…
