Penalty methods are a well known class of algorithms for constrained optimization. They transform a constrained problem into a sequence of unconstrained \emph{penalized} problems in the hope that approximate solutions of the latter converge…

Gradient descent methods are fundamental first-order optimization algorithms in both Euclidean spaces and Riemannian manifolds. However, the exact gradient is not readily available in many scenarios. This paper proposes a novel inexact…
