This paper primarily focuses on computing the Euclidean projection of a vector onto the $\ell_{p}$ ball in which $p\in(0,1)$. Such a problem emerges as the core building block in statistical machine learning and signal processing tasks…

This paper, broadly speaking, covers the use of randomness in two main areas: low-rank approximation and kernel methods. Low-rank approximation is very important in numerical linear algebra. Many applications depend on matrix decomposition…

We propose a framework for modeling and solving low-rank optimization problems to certifiable optimality. We introduce symmetric projection matrices that satisfy $Y^2=Y$, the matrix analog of binary variables that satisfy $z^2=z$, to model…

We propose a factorization-free method for orthogonal projection onto the positive semidefinite (PSD) cone, leveraging composite polynomial filtering. Inspired by recent advances in homomorphic encryption, our approach approximates the PSD…

We study randomized sketching methods for approximately solving least-squares problem with a general convex constraint. The quality of a least-squares approximation can be assessed in different ways: either in terms of the value of the…

A framework is presented whereby a general convex conic optimization problem is transformed into an equivalent convex optimization problem whose only constraints are linear equations and whose objective function is Lipschitz continuous.…

We propose a new subgradient method for the minimization of nonsmooth convex functions over a convex set. To speed up computations we use adaptive approximate projections only requiring to move within a certain distance of the exact…

We provide new conditions under which the alternating projection sequence converges in norm for the convex feasibility problem where a linear subspace with finite codimension $N\geq 2$ and a lattice cone in a Hilbert space are considered.…

This paper is concerned with achieving optimal coherence for highly redundant real unit-norm frames. As the redundancy grows, the number of vectors in the frame becomes too large to admit equiangular arrangements. In this case, other…

While semidefinite programming (SDP) problems are polynomially solvable in theory, it is often difficult to solve large SDP instances in practice. One technique to address this issue is to relax the global positive-semidefiniteness (PSD)…

Optimization algorithms such as projected Newton's method, FISTA, mirror descent, and its variants enjoy near-optimal regret bounds and convergence rates, but suffer from a computational bottleneck of computing ``projections'' in…

This paper deals with supervised classification and feature selection in high dimensional space. A classical approach is to project data on a low dimensional space and classify by minimizing an appropriate quadratic cost. A strict control…

We consider a PDE approach to numerically solving the optimal transportation problem on the sphere. We focus on both the traditional squared geodesic cost and a logarithmic cost, which arises in the reflector antenna design problem. At each…

Assume that f is a strict convex function with a unique minimum in R^n. We divide the vector of n-variables to d groups of vector subvariables with d at least two. We assume that we can find the partial minimum of f with respect to each…

In this paper, we study local convergence of high-order Tensor Methods for solving convex optimization problems with composite objective. We justify local superlinear convergence under the assumption of uniform convexity of the smooth…

We propose and investigate a new method of quantum process tomography (QPT) which we call projected least squares (PLS). In short, PLS consists of first computing the least-squares estimator of the Choi matrix of an unknown channel, and…

The irreducible representations of SU(N) over a mixed quark-antiquark Fock space component have been studied for many years. In analogy to the case for the quark-only Fock space component, there exist efficient tools to classify the…

Random projection (RP) is a classical technique for reducing storage and computational costs. We analyze RP-based approximations of convex programs, in which the original optimization problem is approximated by the solution of a…

In this paper, we consider the CQ projection method and the shrinking projection method given by a finite family of nonexpansive mappings of the unit sphere of a real Hilbert space, and prove strong convergence theorems to common fixed…

Let $C$ be a closed convex subset of a real Hilbert space containing the origin, and assume that $K$ is the homogenization cone of $C$, i.e., the smallest closed convex cone containing $C \times \{1\}$. Homogenization cones play an…
