We analyze worst-case complexity of a Proximal augmented Lagrangian (Proximal AL) framework for nonconvex optimization with nonlinear equality constraints. When an approximate first-order (second-order) optimal point is obtained in the…
Second-order Newton-type algorithms that leverage the exact Hessian or its approximation are central to solve nonlinear optimization problems. However, their applications in solving large-scale nonconvex problems are hindered by three…
This paper develops the proximal method of multipliers for a class of nonsmooth convex optimization. The method generates a sequence of minimization problems (subproblems). We show that the sequence of approximations to the solutions of the…
In this paper, a proximal augmented Lagrangian homotopy (PAL-Hom) method for solving convex quadratic programming problems is proposed. This method takes the proximal augmented Lagrangian method as the outer iteration. To solve the proximal…
We design inexact proximal augmented Lagrangian based decomposition methods for convex composite programming problems with dual block-angular structures. Our methods are particularly well suited for convex quadratic programming problems…
We study a class of optimization problems in which the objective function is given by the sum of a differentiable but possibly nonconvex component and a nondifferentiable convex regularization term. We introduce an auxiliary variable to…
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…
Physics and equality constrained artificial neural networks (PECANN) are grounded in methods of constrained optimization to properly constrain the solution of partial differential equations (PDEs) with their boundary and initial conditions…
We propose two basic assumptions, under which the rate of convergence of the augmented Lagrange method for a class of composite optimization problems is estimated. We analyze the rate of local convergence of the augmented Lagrangian method…
This paper investigates solving convex composite optimization on an undirected network, where each node, privately endowed with a smooth component function and a nonsmooth one, is required to minimize the sum of all the component functions…
A stochastic linear quadratic (LQ) optimal control problem with a pointwise linear equality constraint on the terminal state is considered. A strong Lagrangian duality theorem is proved under a uniform convexity condition on the cost…

It has been widely recognized that the 0/1 loss function is one of the most natural choices for modelling classification errors, and it has a wide range of applications including support vector machines and 1-bit compressed sensing. Due to…
Necessary optimality conditions in Lagrangian form and the sequential minimization framework are extended to mixed-integer nonlinear optimization, without any convexity assumptions. Building upon a recently developed notion of local…
