This paper presents an algorithmic framework for solving unconstrained stochastic optimization problems using only stochastic function evaluations. We employ central finite-difference based gradient estimation methods to approximate the…

In this paper we study localization properties of the Riesz $s$-fractional gradient $D^s u$ of a vectorial function $u$ as $s \nearrow 1$. The natural space to work with $s$-fractional gradients is the Bessel space $H^{s,p}$ for $0 < s < 1$…

We consider the approximation of the total variation of a function by the family of non-local and non-convex functionals introduced by H. Brezis and H.-M. Nguyen in a recent paper. The approximating functionals are defined through double…

We get a new multiplicity result for gradient systems. Here is a very particular corollary: Let $\Omega\subset {\bf R}^n$ ($n\geq 2$) be a smooth bounded domain and let $\Phi:{\bf R}^2\to {\bf R}$ be a $C^1$ function, with $\Phi(0,0)=0$,…

We study the regularity of local minimisers of a prototypical free-discontinuity problem involving both a manifold-valued constraint on the maps (which are defined on a bounded domain $\Omega \subset \R^2$) and a variable-exponent growth in…

This book deals with functions allowing to express the dissimilarity (discrepancy) between two data fields or ''divergence functions'' with the aim of applications to linear inverse problems. Most of the divergences found in the litterature…

This paper is concerned with equilibrium configurations of one-dimensional particle system with non-convex nearest-neighbour and next-to-nearest-neighbour interactions and its passage to the continuum. The goal is to derive compactness…

This article is devoted to obtain the $\Gamma$-limit, as $\epsilon$ tends to zero, of the family of functionals $$F_{\epsilon}(u)=\int_{\Omega}f\Bigl(x,\frac{x}{\epsilon},..., \frac{x}{\epsilon^n},\nabla u(x)\Bigr)dx$$, where…

We consider sequences of additive functionals of difference approximations for uniformly non-degenerate multidimensional diffusions. The conditions are given, sufficient for such a sequence to converge weakly to a W-functional of the…

The focus of this article is the approximation of functions which are analytic on a compact interval except at the endpoints. Typical numerical methods for approximating such functions depend upon the use of particular conformal maps from…

In \cite{5} we proved that generically functions defined in any open set can be approximated by a sequense of their pad\'{e} approximants, in the sense of uniform convergence on compacta. In this paper we examine a more particular space,…

The problem of reconstructing functions from their asymptotic expansions in powers of a small variable is addressed by deriving a novel type of approximants. The derivation is based on the self-similar approximation theory, which presents…

Recently there has been renewed interests in derivative free approaches to stochastic optimization. In this paper, we examine the rates of convergence for the Kiefer-Wolfowitz algorithm and the mirror descent algorithm, under various…

We develop a finite difference approximation of order $\alpha$ for the $\alpha$-fractional derivative. The weights of the approximation scheme have the same rate-matrix type properties as the popular Gr\"unwald scheme. In particular,…

Matter interacting classically with gravity in 3+1 dimensions usually gives rise to a continuum of degrees of freedom, so that, in any attempt to quantize the theory, ultraviolet divergences are nearly inevitable. Here, we investigate…

We consider the long time behavior of the semidiscrete scheme for the Perona-Malik equation in dimension one. We prove that approximated solutions converge, in a slow time scale, to solutions of a limit problem. This limit problem evolves…

Large optimal transport problems can be approached via domain decomposition, i.e. by iteratively solving small partial problems independently and in parallel. Convergence to the global minimizers under suitable assumptions has been shown in…

We deal with a family of functionals depending on curvatures and we prove for them compactness and semicontinuity properties in the class of closed and bounded sets which satisfy a uniform exterior and interior sphere condition. We apply…

We present a systematic study on a class of nonlocal integral functionals for functions defined on a bounded domain and the naturally induced function spaces. The function spaces are equipped with a seminorm depending on finite differences…

These are classified by the direction of approximation (from above or below), the set family types (partition or covering) of simple functions, the coefficient signature (non-negative or signed), and cardinal number of terms of simple…
