We develop a unified theory of augmented Lagrangians for nonconvex optimization problems that encompasses both duality theory and convergence analysis of primal-dual augmented Lagrangian methods in the infinite dimensional setting. Our goal…

We introduce a primal-dual framework for solving linearly constrained nonconvex composite optimization problems. Our approach is based on a newly developed Lagrangian, which incorporates \emph{false penalty} and dual smoothing terms. This…

In this paper, we propose a unified primal-dual algorithm framework based on the augmented Lagrangian function for composite convex problems with conic inequality constraints. The new framework is highly versatile. First, it not only covers…

In this paper, we propose a penalty dual-primal augmented lagrangian method for solving convex minimization problems under linear equality or inequality constraints. The proposed method combines a novel penalty technique with updates the…

In this two-part study we develop a unified approach to the analysis of the global exactness of various penalty and augmented Lagrangian functions for finite-dimensional constrained optimization problems. This approach allows one to verify…

In this work, we revisit a classical incremental implementation of the primal-descent dual-ascent gradient method used for the solution of equality constrained optimization problems. We provide a short proof that establishes the linear…

By exploiting double-penalty terms for the primal subproblem, we develop a novel relaxed augmented Lagrangian method for solving a family of convex optimization problems subject to equality or inequality constraints. The method is then…

This paper is concerned with augmented Lagrangian methods for the treatment of fully convex composite optimization problems. We extend the classical relationship between augmented Lagrangian methods and the proximal point algorithm to the…

In this paper we study an unconventional inexact Augmented Lagrangian Method (ALM) for convex optimization problems, as first proposed by Bertsekas, wherein the penalty term is a potentially non-Euclidean norm raised to a power between one…

In this paper, we conduct a convergence rate analysis of the augmented Lagrangian method with a practical relative error criterion designed in Eckstein and Silva [Math. Program., 141, 319--348 (2013)] for convex nonlinear programming…

In this paper, we accomplish a unified convergence analysis of a second-order method of multipliers (i.e., a second-order augmented Lagrangian method) for solving the conventional nonlinear conic optimization problems.Specifically, the…

We propose an inexact proximal augmented Lagrangian method (P-ALM) for nonconvex structured optimization problems. The proposed method features an easily implementable rule not only for updating the penalty parameters, but also for…

Augmented Lagrangian dual augments the classical Lagrangian dual with a non-negative non-linear penalty function of the violation of the relaxed/dualized constraints in order to reduce the duality gap. We investigate the cases in which…

This work introduces an unconventional inexact augmented Lagrangian method where the augmenting term is a Euclidean norm raised to a power between one and two. The proposed algorithm is applicable to a broad class of constrained nonconvex…

Motivated by an inertial primal-dual dynamical system with vanishing damping, we propose a class of accelerated augmented Lagrangian methods with Nesterov extrapolation parameters for a linearly constrained convex optimization problem with…

We propose two basic assumptions, under which the rate of convergence of the augmented Lagrange method for a class of composite optimization problems is estimated. We analyze the rate of local convergence of the augmented Lagrangian method…

We propose a new bundle-based augmented Lagrangian framework for solving constrained convex problems. Unlike the classical (inexact) augmented Lagrangian method (ALM) that has a nested double-loop structure, our framework features a…

In the second part of our study we introduce the concept of global extended exactness of penalty and augmented Lagrangian functions, and derive the localization principle in the extended form. The main idea behind the extended exactness…

Most recently, He and Yuan [arXiv:2108.08554, 2021] have proposed a balanced augmented Lagrangian method (ALM) for the canonical convex programming problem with linear constraints, which advances the original ALM by balancing its…

Non-convex functional constrained optimization problems have gained substantial attention in machine learning and data science, addressing broad requirements that typically go beyond the often performance-centric objectives. An influential…
