In this article, we introduce the notion of differential flatness by pure prolongation: loosely speaking, a system admits this property if, and only if, there exists a pure prolongation of finite order such that the prolonged system is…
In recent years, the nuclear norm minimization (NNM) problem has been attracting much attention in computer vision and machine learning. The NNM problem is capitalized on its convexity and it can be solved efficiently. The standard nuclear…
The affine rank minimization problem consists of finding a matrix of minimum rank that satisfies a given system of linear equality constraints. Such problems have appeared in the literature of a diverse set of fields including system…
Originally developed for imputing missing entries in low rank, or approximately low rank matrices, matrix completion has proven widely effective in many problems where there is no reason to assume low-dimensional linear structure in the…
Minimizing the rank of a matrix subject to constraints is a challenging problem that arises in many applications in control theory, machine learning, and discrete geometry. This class of optimization problems, known as rank minimization, is…
This work investigates the geometry of a nonconvex reformulation of minimizing a general convex loss function $f(X)$ regularized by the matrix nuclear norm $\|X\|_*$. Nuclear-norm regularized matrix inverse problems are at the heart of many…
Minimization of the nuclear norm is often used as a surrogate, convex relaxation, for finding the minimum rank completion (recovery) of a partial matrix. The minimum nuclear norm problem can be solved as a trace minimization semidefinite…
This paper focuses on the characterization for the regular and limiting normal cones to the graph of the subdifferential mapping of the nuclear norm, which is essential to derive optimality conditions for the equivalent MPEC (mathematical…
For a $3$-tensor of dimensions $I_1\times I_2\times I_3$, we show that the nuclear norm of its every matrix flattening is a lower bound of the tensor nuclear norm, and which in turn is upper bounded by $\sqrt{\min\{I_i : i\neq j\}}$ times…
Low-rank matrix approximation, which aims to construct a low-rank matrix from an observation, has received much attention recently. An efficient method to solve this problem is to convert the problem of rank minimization into a nuclear norm…
We construct flat metrics in a given conformal class with prescribed singularities of real orders at marked points of a closed real surface. The singularities can be small conical, cylindrical, and large conical with possible translation…
The widely used nuclear norm heuristic for rank minimization problems introduces a regularization parameter which is difficult to tune. We have recently proposed a method to approximate the regularization path, i.e., the optimal solution as…
Convex optimization recently emerges as a compelling framework for performing super resolution, garnering significant attention from multiple communities spanning signal processing, applied mathematics, and optimization. This article offers…
The rank minimization problem is to find the lowest-rank matrix in a given set. Nuclear norm minimization has been proposed as an convex relaxation of rank minimization. Recht, Fazel, and Parrilo have shown that nuclear norm minimization…
Structured optimization uses a prescribed set of atoms to assemble a solution that fits a model to data. Polarity, which extends the familiar notion of orthogonality from linear sets to general convex sets, plays a special role in a simple…
The condition number of solutions to full rank linear least-squares problem are shown to be given by an optimization problem that involves nuclear norms of rank 2 matrices. The condition number is with respect to the least-squares…
We report on our calculations of differential hyperfine anomalies in the nuclear single-particle model for a number of atoms and ions of interest for studies of fundamental symmetries violations. Comparison with available experimental data…
This paper concerns model reduction of dynamical systems using the nuclear norm of the Hankel matrix to make a trade-off between model fit and model complexity. This results in a convex optimization problem where this trade-off is…
Given a limited number of entries from the superposition of a low-rank matrix plus the product of a known fat compression matrix times a sparse matrix, recovery of the low-rank and sparse components is a fundamental task subsuming…
In this paper, we introduce several geometric characterizations for strong minima of optimization problems. Applying these results to nuclear norm minimization problems allows us to obtain new necessary and sufficient quantitative…
