Mixed integer quadratic programming (MIQP) is the problem of minimizing a convex quadratic function over mixed integer points in a rational polyhedron. This paper focuses on the augmented Lagrangian dual (ALD) for MIQP. ALD augments the…
In this paper, we propose a penalty dual-primal augmented lagrangian method for solving convex minimization problems under linear equality or inequality constraints. The proposed method combines a novel penalty technique with updates the…
We study the computational complexity certification of inexact gradient augmented Lagrangian methods for solving convex optimization problems with complicated constraints. We solve the augmented Lagrangian dual problem that arises from the…
We develop a unified theory of augmented Lagrangians for nonconvex optimization problems that encompasses both duality theory and convergence analysis of primal-dual augmented Lagrangian methods in the infinite dimensional setting. Our goal…
Binary optimization is a central problem in mathematical optimization and its applications are abundant. To solve this problem, we propose a new class of continuous optimization techniques which is based on Mathematical Programming with…
There are many important practical optimization problems whose feasible regions are not known to be nonempty or not, and optimizers of the objective function with the least constraint violation prefer to be found. A natural way for dealing…
Lagrangian duality in mixed integer optimization is a useful framework for problems decomposition and for producing tight lower bounds to the optimal objective, but in contrast to the convex counterpart, it is generally unable to produce…
In this paper, we propose a unified primal-dual algorithm framework based on the augmented Lagrangian function for composite convex problems with conic inequality constraints. The new framework is highly versatile. First, it not only covers…
This paper presents the Lagrangian duality theory for mixed-integer semidefinite programming (MISDP). We derive the Lagrangian dual problem and prove that the resulting Lagrangian dual bound dominates the bound obtained from the continuous…
By exploiting double-penalty terms for the primal subproblem, we develop a novel relaxed augmented Lagrangian method for solving a family of convex optimization problems subject to equality or inequality constraints. The method is then…
We introduce a primal-dual framework for solving linearly constrained nonconvex composite optimization problems. Our approach is based on a newly developed Lagrangian, which incorporates \emph{false penalty} and dual smoothing terms. This…
In this two-part study we develop a unified approach to the analysis of the global exactness of various penalty and augmented Lagrangian functions for finite-dimensional constrained optimization problems. This approach allows one to verify…
In this paper, we study augmented Lagrangian functions for nonlinear semidefinite programming (NSDP) problems with exactness properties. The term exact is used in the sense that the penalty parameter can be taken appropriately, so a single…
First-order methods have been studied for nonlinear constrained optimization within the framework of the augmented Lagrangian method (ALM) or penalty method. We propose an improved inexact ALM (iALM) and conduct a unified analysis for…
In this work, we revisit a classical incremental implementation of the primal-descent dual-ascent gradient method used for the solution of equality constrained optimization problems. We provide a short proof that establishes the linear…
The paper concerns optimization problems with general equality and inequality constraints and with constraints expressed by a convex set. In order to solve these problems, the general constraints are treated by an exact penalty functions…
This paper presents two new techniques relating to inexact solution of subproblems in augmented Lagrangian methods for convex programming. The first involves combining a relative error criterion for solution of the subproblems with over- or…
Motivated by an inertial primal-dual dynamical system with vanishing damping, we propose a class of accelerated augmented Lagrangian methods with Nesterov extrapolation parameters for a linearly constrained convex optimization problem with…
In this paper we present a complete iteration complexity analysis of inexact first order Lagrangian and penalty methods for solving cone constrained convex problems that have or may not have optimal Lagrange multipliers that close the…
In this article, we present new general results on existence of augmented Lagrange multipliers. We define a penalty function associated with an augmented Lagrangian, and prove that, under a certain growth assumption on the augmenting…
