We introduce a new quantum optimization algorithm for dense Linear Programming problems, which can be seen as the quantization of the Interior Point Predictor-Corrector algorithm \cite{Predictor-Corrector} using a Quantum Linear System…

In this paper we present a novel numerical method for computing local minimizers of twice smooth differentiable non-linear programming (NLP) problems. So far all algorithms for NLP are based on either of the following three principles:…

In this paper we study the worst-case complexity of an inexact Augmented Lagrangian method for nonconvex constrained problems. Assuming that the penalty parameters are bounded, we prove a complexity bound of $\mathcal{O}(|\log(\epsilon)|)$…

The emergence of huge-scale, data-intensive linear optimization (LO) problems in applications such as machine learning has driven the need for more computationally efficient interior point methods (IPMs). While conventional IPMs are…

We present several new results about smoothed analysis of multiobjective optimization problems. Motivated by the discrepancy between worst-case analysis and practical experience, this line of research has gained a lot of attention in the…

Explaining the excellent practical performance of the simplex method for linear programming has been a major topic of research for over 50 years. One of the most successful frameworks for understanding the simplex method was given by…

This paper studies the worst case iteration complexity of an infeasible interior point method (IPM) for seconder order cone programming (SOCP), which is more convenient for warmstarting compared with feasible IPMs. The method studied bases…

We refine the bit complexity analysis of an algorithm for the computation of at least one point per connected component of a smooth real algebraic set, yielding exponential speedup (with respect to the number of variables) compared to prior…

An algorithm based on the interior-point methodology for solving continuous nonlinearly constrained optimization problems is proposed, analyzed, and tested. The distinguishing feature of the algorithm is that it presumes that only noisy…

We present a quantum interior point method with worst case running time $\widetilde{O}(\frac{n^{2.5}}{\xi^{2}} \mu \kappa^3 \log (1/\epsilon))$ for SDPs and $\widetilde{O}(\frac{n^{1.5}}{\xi^{2}} \mu \kappa^3 \log (1/\epsilon))$ for LPs,…

In this paper, we propose an arc-search infeasible-interior-point algorithm. We show that this algorithm is polynomial and the polynomial bound is ${\cal O}(nL)$ which is at least as good as the best existing bound for…

Estimation of nonlinear dynamic models from data poses many challenges, including model instability and non-convexity of long-term simulation fidelity. Recently Lagrangian relaxation has been proposed as a method to approximate simulation…

We show that the smoothed complexity of the FLIP algorithm for local Max-Cut is at most $\smash{\phi n^{O(\sqrt{\log n})}}$, where $n$ is the number of nodes in the graph and $\phi$ is a parameter that measures the magnitude of…

Semidefinite programs (SDPs) are a fundamental class of optimization problems with important recent applications in approximation algorithms, quantum complexity, robust learning, algorithmic rounding, and adversarial deep learning. This…

We develop a new interior-point method (IPM) for symmetric-cone optimization, a common generalization of linear, second-order-cone, and semidefinite programming. In contrast to classical IPMs, we update iterates with a geodesic of the cone…

We perform a smoothed analysis of the componentwise condition numbers for determinant computation, matrix inversion, and linear equations solving for sparse n times n matrices. The bounds we obtain for the ex- pectations of the logarithm of…

We study two fundamental optimization problems: (1) scaling a symmetric positive definite matrix by a positive diagonal matrix so that the resulting matrix has row and column sums equal to 1; and (2) minimizing a quadratic function subject…

The purpose of this paper is to establish bounds on the rate of convergence of the conjugate gradient algorithm when the underlying matrix is a random positive definite perturbation of a deterministic positive definite matrix. We estimate…

For interior-point algorithms in linear programming, it is well-known that the selection of the centering parameter is crucial for proving polynomility in theory and for efficiency in practice. However, the selection of the centering…

We analyze the bit complexity of efficient algorithms for fundamental optimization problems, such as linear regression, $p$-norm regression, and linear programming (LP). State-of-the-art algorithms are iterative, and in terms of the number…
