In this paper, we consider a class of structured nonsmooth optimization problems over an embedded submanifold of a Euclidean space, where the first part of the objective is the sum of a difference-of-convex (DC) function and a smooth…

We study the algebraic complexity of Euclidean distance minimization from a generic tensor to a variety of rank-one tensors. The Euclidean Distance (ED) degree of the Segre-Veronese variety counts the number of complex critical points of…

We employ the photography method to obtain a lower bound for the number of solutions to a nonlinear elliptic problem on a Riemannian orbifold in function of the Lusternik--Schnirelmann category of its submanifold of points with largest…

The symplectic Stiefel manifold, denoted by $\mathrm{Sp}(2p,2n)$, is the set of linear symplectic maps between the standard symplectic spaces $\mathbb{R}^{2p}$ and $\mathbb{R}^{2n}$. When $p=n$, it reduces to the well-known set of $2n\times…

Supervised dimensionality reduction has emerged as an important theme in the last decade. Despite the plethora of models and formulations, there is a lack of a simple model which aims to project the set of patterns into a space defined by…

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…

We propose two practical non-convex approaches for learning near-isometric, linear embeddings of finite sets of data points. Given a set of training points $\mathcal{X}$, we consider the secant set $S(\mathcal{X})$ that consists of all…

We present a novel Riemannian approach for planar pose graph optimization problems. By formulating the cost function based on the Riemannian metric on the manifold of dual quaternions representing planar motions, the nonlinear structure of…

The approximate degree of a Boolean function f is the least degree of a real polynomial that approximates f pointwise to error at most 1/3. Approximate degree is known to be a lower bound on quantum query complexity. We resolve or nearly…

Community detection plays an important role in understanding and exploiting the structure of complex systems. Many algorithms have been developed for community detection using modularity maximization or other techniques. In this paper, we…

In this article we extend to generic $p$-energy minimizing maps between Riemannian manifolds a regularity result which is known to hold in the case $p=2$. We first show that the set of singular points of such a map can be quantitatively…

This work concerns the distance in 2-norm from a matrix polynomial to a nearest polynomial with a specified number of its eigenvalues at specified locations in the complex plane. Perturbations are allowed only on the constant coefficient…

Given a matrix $A$, a matrix nearness problem seeks an $X$ that most closely approximates $A$ in the sense of minimizing $\lVert A - X\rVert$ under a variety of constraints on $X$. A generalized matrix nearness problem seeks the same but…

This paper proposes a Riemannian Multiobjective Proximal Gradient Method (RMPGM) for composite optimization problems on manifolds. Unlike scalarization-based approaches, the proposed framework directly handles vector-valued objectives and…

We investigate the minimization of a quadratic function over Stiefel manifolds (the set of all orthogonal $r$- frames in $\mathbf{R}^n$), which has applications in high-dimensional semi-supervised classification tasks. To reduce the…

We describe an efficient method for the approximation of functions using radial basis functions (RBFs), and extend this to a solver for boundary value problems on irregular domains. The method is based on RBFs with centers on a regular grid…

A numerical method optimizing the coefficients of the semi empirical mass formula or those of similar mass formulas is presented. The optimization is based on the least-squares adjustments method and leads to the resolution of a linear…

In this paper, we propose a cubic-regularized Riemannian optimization method (RDRSOM), which partially exploits the second order information and achieves the iteration complexity of $\mathcal{O}(1/\epsilon^{3/2})$. In order to reduce the…

Proximal methods are known to identify the underlying substructure of nonsmooth optimization problems. Even more, in many interesting situations, the output of a proximity operator comes with its structure at no additional cost, and…

We examine a wide class of stochastic approximation algorithms for solving (stochastic) nonlinear problems on Riemannian manifolds. Such algorithms arise naturally in the study of Riemannian optimization, game theory and optimal transport,…
