Composite convex optimization models arise in several applications, and are especially prevalent in inverse problems with a sparsity inducing norm and in general convex optimization with simple constraints. The most widely used algorithms…

We present a methodology for establishing the existence of quadratic Lyapunov inequalities for a wide range of first-order methods used to solve convex optimization problems. In particular, we consider i) classes of optimization problems of…

We introduce and investigate the asymptotic behaviour of the trajectories of a second order dynamical system with Tikhonov regularization for solving a monotone equation with single valued, monotone and continuous operator acting on a real…

In a Hilbert setting, we develop fast methods for convex unconstrained optimization. We rely on the asymptotic behavior of an inertial system combining geometric damping with temporal scaling. The convex function to minimize enters the…

We investigate the integration of Nesterov-type acceleration into primal-dual methods for structured convex optimization. While proximal splitting algorithms efficiently handle composite problems of the form $\min_x f(x)+g(x)+h(Kx)$,…

We formulate two classes of first-order algorithms more general than previously studied for minimizing smooth and strongly convex or, respectively, smooth and convex functions. We establish sufficient conditions, via new discrete Lyapunov…

In this paper we study a second order dynamical system with variable coefficients in connection to the minimization problem of a smooth nonconvex function. The convergence of the trajectories generated by the dynamical system to a critical…

We leverage second-order information for tuning of inverse optimal controllers for a class of discrete-time nonlinear input-affine systems. For this, we select the input penalty matrix, representing a tuning knob, to yield the Hessian of…

Consider composite nonconvex optimization problems where the objective function consists of a smooth nonconvex term (with Lipschitz-continuous gradient) and a convex (possibly nonsmooth) term. Existing parameter-free methods for such…

We propose a hybrid control algorithm that guarantees fast convergence and uniform global asymptotic stability of the unique minimizer of a continuously differentiable, convex objective function. The algorithm, developed using hybrid system…

For a linear equality constrained convex optimization problem involving two objective functions with a ``nonsmooth" + ``nonsmooth" composite structure, we study two algorithms derived from a mixed-order dynamical system which incorporates…

This paper proposes a novel nonlinear sliding mode state feedback controller for perturbed second-order systems. In analogy to a linear proportional-derivative (PD) feedback control, the proposed nonlinear scheme uses the output of interest…

We consider an optimization problem related to semi-active damping of vibrating systems. The main problem is to determine the best damping matrix able to minimize influence of the input on the output of the system. We use a minimization…

First order optimization algorithms play a major role in large scale machine learning. A new class of methods, called adaptive algorithms, were recently introduced to adjust iteratively the learning rate for each coordinate. Despite great…

We consider a nonlinear discrete stochastic control system, and our goal is to design a feedback control policy in order to lead the system to a prespecified state. We adopt a stochastic approximation viewpoint of this problem. It is known…

We develop a theory of accelerated first-order optimization from the viewpoint of differential equations and Lyapunov functions. Building upon the previous work of many researchers, we consider differential equations which model the…

In this paper, we propose Nesterov Accelerated Shuffling Gradient (NASG), a new algorithm for the convex finite-sum minimization problems. Our method integrates the traditional Nesterov's acceleration momentum with different shuffling…

In this work, we investigate a second-order dynamical system with Hessian-driven damping tailored for a class of nonconvex functions called strongly quasiconvex. Buil\-ding upon this continuous-time model, we derive two discrete-time…

We exploit analogies between first-order algorithms for constrained optimization and non-smooth dynamical systems to design a new class of accelerated first-order algorithms for constrained optimization. Unlike Frank-Wolfe or projected…

Many problems in geometric optics or convex geometry can be recast as optimal transport problems: this includes the far-field reflector problem, Alexandrov's curvature prescription problem, etc. A popular way to solve these problems…
