This paper concerns a class of constrained difference-of-convex (DC) optimization problems in which, the constraint functions are continuously differentiable and their gradients are strictly continuous. For such nonconvex and nonsmooth…

In this paper, we propose a new non-monotone line-search method for smooth unconstrained optimization problems with objective functions that have many non-global local minimizers. The method is based on a relaxed Armijo condition that…

Composite minimization involves a collection of functions which are aggregated in a nonsmooth manner. It covers, as a particular case, smooth approximation of minimax games, minimization of max-type functions, and simple composite…

We study multipoint Pad\'e approximants of type $(n,n)$ for the Hurwitz zeta function $f(a)=\zeta(s,a)$ with $\Re s>1$, constructed at quantile nodes $a_{n,j}=n\alpha_{n,j}$ generated by a real-analytic density $\kappa$ on…

In this paper, we study stochastic constrained minimax optimization problems with nonconvex-nonconcave structure, a central problem in modern machine learning, for which reliable and efficient algorithms remain largely unexplored due to its…

In this paper, we focus on the local convergence rate analysis of the proximal iteratively reweighted $\ell_1$ algorithms for solving $\ell_p$ regularization problems, which are widely applied for inducing sparse solutions. We show that if…

In a Hilbert space setting $\mathcal H$, given $\Phi: \mathcal H \to \mathbb R$ a convex continuously differentiable function, and $\alpha$ a positive parameter, we consider the inertial system with Asymptotic Vanishing Damping…

This paper introduces the Fej\'er-monotone hybrid steepest descent method (FM-HSDM), a new member to the HSDM family of algorithms, for solving affinely constrained minimization tasks in real Hilbert spaces, where convex smooth and…

This paper proposes and develops inexact proximal methods for finding stationary points of the sum of a smooth function and a nonsmooth weakly convex one, where an error is present in the calculation of the proximal mapping of the nonsmooth…

This paper concerns a class of DC composite optimization problems which, as an extension of convex composite optimization problems and DC programs with nonsmooth components, often arises in robust factorization models of low-rank matrix…

We study composite optimization problems in which the smooth part of the objective function is \( p \)-times continuously differentiable, where \( p \geq 1 \) is an integer. Higher-order methods are known to be effective for solving such…

In this paper, we consider a multi-block generalized alternating direction method of multiplier (GADMM) algorithm for minimizing a linearly constrained separable nonconvex and possibly nonsmooth optimization problem. The GADMM generalizes…

In this paper we introduce two novel generalizations of the theory for gradient descent type methods in the proximal setting. First, we introduce the proportion function, which we further use to analyze all known (and many new)…

For a class of sparse optimization problems with the penalty function of $\|(\cdot)_+\|_0$, we first characterize its local minimizers and then propose an extrapolated hard thresholding algorithm to solve such problems. We show that the…

In this paper, we study the convergence properties of the Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) method for finding a stationary point of a given objective function $J(\cdot)$. The objective function is not required to be convex. Rather, our…

In this paper, we consider the convergence of an abstract inexact nonconvex and nonsmooth algorithm. We promise a pseudo sufficient descent condition and a pseudo relative error condition, which are both related to an auxiliary sequence,…

In this work, we establish the linear convergence estimate for the gradient descent involving the delay $\tau\in\mathbb{N}$ when the cost function is $\mu$-strongly convex and $L$-smooth. This result improves upon the well-known estimates…

This paper proposes a nonmonotone proximal quasi-Newton algorithm for unconstrained convex multiobjective composite optimization problems. To design the search direction, we minimize the max-scalarization of the variations of the Hessian…

This paper concerns a class of constrained optimization problems in which, the objective and constraint functions are both upper-$\mathcal{C}^2$. For such nonconvex and nonsmooth optimization problems, we develop an inexact moving balls…

The application of a zeroth-order scheme for minimising Polyak-\L{}ojasewicz (PL) functions is considered. The framework is based on exploiting a random oracle to estimate the function gradient. The convergence of the algorithm to a global…
