We introduce and investigate the convergence properties of an inertial forward-backward-forward splitting algorithm for approaching the set of zeros of the sum of a maximally monotone operator and a single-valued monotone and Lipschitzian…

We investigate the equivalence of different operator-splitting schemes for the integration of the Langevin equation. We consider a specific problem, so called the directed percolation process, which can be extended to a wider class of…

In this paper, the concept of matrix splitting is introduced to solve a large sparse ill-posed linear system via Tikhonov's regularization. In the regularization process, we convert the ill-posed system to a well-posed system. The…

Since 1997 a considerable effort has been spent on the study of the swap (switch) Markov chains on graphic degree sequences. Several results were proved on rapidly mixing Markov chains on regular simple, on regular directed, on half-regular…

Consider a set of N agents seeking to solve distributively the minimization problem $\inf_{x} \sum_{n = 1}^N f_n(x)$ where the convex functions $f_n$ are local to the agents. The popular Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers has the…

In this paper we develop a randomized block-coordinate descent method for minimizing the sum of a smooth and a simple nonsmooth block-separable convex function and prove that it obtains an $\epsilon$-accurate solution with probability at…

We investigate the subject of speed of mixing for operators on infinite dimensional Hilbert spaces which are strongly mixing with respect to a nondegenerate Gaussian measure. We prove that there is no way to find a uniform speed of mixing…

In this paper, we propose and study several strongly convergent versions of the forward-reflected-backward splitting method of Malitsky and Tam for finding a zero of the sum of two monotone operators in a real Hilbert space. Our proposed…

The proximal extrapolated gradient method \cite{Malitsky18a} is an extension of the projected reflected gradient method \cite{Malitsky15}. Both methods were proposed for solving the classic variational inequalities. In this paper, we…

Considering the issue of estimating small probabilities p, ie. measuring a rare domain F = {x | g(x) > q} with respect to the distribution of a random vector X, Multilevel Splitting strategies (also called Subset Simulation) aim at writing…

We extend elliptical slice sampling, a Markov chain transition kernel suggested in Murray, Adams and MacKay 2010, to infinite-dimensional separable Hilbert spaces and discuss its well-definedness. We point to a regularity requirement,…

In this work, we study how to efficiently obtain perfect samples from a discrete distribution $\mathcal{D}$ given access only to pairwise comparisons of elements of its support. Specifically, we assume access to samples $(x, S)$, where $S$…

The point-splitting regularization technique for composite operators is discussed in connection with anomaly calculation. We present a pedagogical and self-contained review of the topic with an emphasis on the technical details. We also…

The theory of monotone operators plays a major role in modern optimization and many areas of nonlinera analysis. The central classes of monotone operators are matrices with a positive semidefinite symmetric part and subsifferential…

Let $\{X_n\}_{n\in\N}$ be a Markov chain on a measurable space $\X$ with transition kernel $P$ and let $V:\X\r[1,+\infty)$. The Markov kernel $P$ is here considered as a linear bounded operator on the weighted-supremum space $\cB_V$…

Sampling from a random discrete distribution induced by a `stick-breaking' process is considered. Under a moment condition, it is shown that the asymptotics of the sequence of occupancy numbers, and of the small-parts counts (singletons,…

We propose a flexible approach for computing the resolvent of the sum of weakly monotone operators in real Hilbert spaces. This relies on splitting methods where strong convergence is guaranteed. We also prove linear convergence under…

Given a self-adjoint operator $T$ on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space we study the problem of characterizing the set $\mathcal D(T)$ of all possible diagonals of $T$. For operators $T$ with at least two points in their…

In this paper we consider the problem of finding the minimizations of the sum of two convex functions and the composition of another convex function with a continuous linear operator. With the idea of coordinate descent, we design a…

In this paper, we develop a unified method for obtaining and proving $m$-dissections of mock theta functions. Our approach builds upon a transformation formula for Appell--Lerch sums due to Hickerson and Mortenson, which allows these sums…
