We introduce an algorithm which, given probabilities $\mu \leq_{\text{cx}} \nu$ in convex order and defined on a separable Banach space $B$, constructs finitely-supported approximations $\mu_n \to \mu, \nu_n\to \nu$ which are in convex…

We propose a variable metric forward-backward splitting algorithm and prove its convergence in real Hilbert spaces. We then use this framework to derive primal-dual splitting algorithms for solving various classes of monotone inclusions in…

In this paper, we construct a type of interacting particle systems to approximate a class of stochastic different equations whose coefficients depend on the conditional probability distributions of the processes given partial observations.…

Let $\mu_N$ be the empirical measure associated to a $N$-sample of a given probability distribution $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$. We are interested in the rate of convergence of $\mu_N$ to $\mu$, when measured in the Wasserstein distance of…

Approximation of the marginal distribution of the solution of the stochastic Navier-Stokes equations on the two-dimensional torus by high order numerical methods is considered. The corresponding rates of convergence are obtained for a…

We show that the augmented primal-dual gradient algorithms can achieve global exponential convergence with partially strongly convex functions. In particular, the objective function only needs to be strongly convex in the subspace…

Convex nonsmooth optimization problems, whose solutions live in very high dimensional spaces, have become ubiquitous. To solve them, the class of first-order algorithms known as proximal splitting algorithms is particularly adequate: they…

We consider a nonlocal approximation of the quadratic porous medium equation where the pressure is given by a convolution with a mollification kernel. It is known that when the kernel concentrates around the origin, the nonlocal equation…

Dual first-order methods are powerful techniques for large-scale convex optimization. Although an extensive research effort has been devoted to studying their convergence properties, explicit convergence rates for the primal iterates have…

In this work, we propose a new splitting algorithm for solving structured monotone inclusion problems composed of a maximally monotone operator, a maximally monotone and Lipschitz continuous operator and a cocoercive operator. Our method…

Consider the inverse problem of scattering of time-harmonic acoustic waves by an inhomogeneous medium with complex refractive index. We show that an approximate factorization method can be applied to reconstruct the support of the complex…

In this paper we propose a distributed dual gradient algorithm for minimizing linearly constrained separable convex problems and analyze its rate of convergence. In particular, we prove that under the assumption of strong convexity and…

For finite-dimensional problems, stochastic approximation methods have long been used to solve stochastic optimization problems. Their application to infinite-dimensional problems is less understood, particularly for nonconvex objectives.…

We analyze several generic proximal splitting algorithms well suited for large-scale convex nonsmooth optimization. We derive sublinear and linear convergence results with new rates on the function value suboptimality or distance to the…

We consider the problem of sampling from a distribution governed by a potential function. This work proposes an explicit score based MCMC method that is deterministic, resulting in a deterministic evolution for particles rather than a…

Wasserstein distributionally robust optimization offers a framework for model fitting in machine learning under potential shifts in the data distribution. We study a regularized variant of this problem in which entropic smoothing produces a…

Gromov--Wasserstein (GW) distances compare graphs, shapes, and point clouds through internal distances, without requiring a common coordinate system. This invariance is powerful, but discrete GW is a nonconvex quadratic optimal transport…

Non-linear versions of log-Sobolev inequalities, that link a free energy to its dissipation along the corresponding Wasserstein gradient flow (i.e. corresponds to Polyak-Lojasiewicz inequalities in this context), are known to provide global…

We derive new HWI inequalities for the granular media equation, which external potential $V$ and interaction potential $W$ are only strictly convex on complementary parts of the space. Particularly, potentials are not assumed convex. After…

A problem of great interest in optimization is to minimize a sum of two closed, proper, and convex functions where one is smooth and the other has a computationally inexpensive proximal operator. In this paper we analyze a family of…
