The Trust Region Subproblem is a fundamental optimization problem that takes a pivotal role in Trust Region Methods. However, the problem, and variants of it, also arise in quite a few other applications. In this article, we present a…

We present a reusable, open-source software implementation of the second-order trust region algorithm in the new OpenTrustRegion library. We apply the implementation to the general-purpose optimization of molecular orbitals in various…

We consider Riemannian inequality-constrained optimization problems. Such problems inherit the benefits of Riemannian approach developed in the unconstrained setting and naturally arise from applications in control, machine learning, and…

Riemannian optimization is concerned with problems, where the independent variable lies on a smooth manifold. There is a number of problems from numerical linear algebra that fall into this category, where the manifold is usually specified…

Orthogonality constraints naturally appear in many machine learning problems, from principal component analysis to robust neural network training. They are usually solved using Riemannian optimization algorithms, which minimize the…

The difficulty of minimizing a nonconvex function is in part explained by the presence of saddle points. This slows down optimization algorithms and impacts worst-case complexity guarantees. However, many nonconvex problems of interest…

Localized molecular orbitals are often used for the analysis of chemical bonds, but they can also serve to efficiently and comprehensibly compute linear response properties. While conventional canonical molecular orbitals provide an…

In this paper, we introduce some new iterative optimisation algorithms on Riemannian manifolds and Hilbert spaces which have good global convergence guarantees to local minima. More precisely, these algorithms have the following properties:…

Molecular-orbital-based machine learning (MOB-ML) enables the prediction of accurate correlation energies at the cost of obtaining molecular orbitals. Here, we present the derivation, implementation, and numerical demonstration of MOB-ML…

In this paper, we study structured quasi-Newton methods for optimization problems with orthogonality constraints. Note that the Riemannian Hessian of the objective function requires both the Euclidean Hessian and the Euclidean gradient. In…

We analyze convergence of gradient-descent methods on Riemannian manifolds. In particular, we study randomization of Riemannian gradient algorithms for minimizing smooth cost functions (of Morse-Bott type). We prove that randomized gradient…

Hamiltonian simulation, i.e., simulating the real time evolution of a target quantum system, is a natural application of quantum computing. Trotter-Suzuki splitting methods can generate corresponding quantum circuits; however, a faithful…

A non-linear conjugate gradient optimization scheme is used to obtain excitation energies within the Random Phase Approximation (RPA). The solutions to the RPA eigenvalue equation are located through a variational characterization using a…

Many classical and modern machine learning algorithms require solving optimization tasks under orthogonality constraints. Solving these tasks with feasible methods requires a gradient descent update followed by a retraction operation on the…

This work is on constrained large-scale non-convex optimization where the constraint set implies a manifold structure. Solving such problems is important in a multitude of fundamental machine learning tasks. Recent advances on Riemannian…

Spatially localized one-electron orbitals, orthogonal and nonorthogonal, are widely used in electronic structure theory to describe chemical bonding and speed up calculations. In order to avoid linear dependencies of localized orbitals, the…

Molecular orbital (MO) is one of the most fundamental concepts for molecules, relating to all branches of chemistry, while scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) has been widely recognized for its potential to measure the spatial distribution…

We present a novel algorithm for (i) detecting approximate symmetries inherently present among spatially localized molecular orbitals and (ii) enforcing these in numerically exact manners by means of unitary optimization techniques. The…

I propose a locally robust semiparametric framework for estimating causal effects using the popular examiner IV design, in the presence of many examiners and possibly many covariates relative to the sample size. The key ingredient of this…

Riemannian optimization is a principled framework for solving optimization problems where the desired optimum is constrained to a smooth manifold $\mathcal{M}$. Algorithms designed in this framework usually require some geometrical…
