A new strategy based on numerical homogenization and Bayesian techniques for solving multiscale inverse problems is introduced. We consider a class of elliptic problems which vary at a microscopic scale, and we aim at recovering the highly…
Quaternion optimization has attracted significant interest due to its broad applications, including color face recognition, video compression, and signal processing. Despite the growing literature on quadratic and matrix quaternion…
In the recent years, several polynomial algorithms of a dynamical nature have been proposed to address the graph isomorphism problem. In this paper we propose a generalization of an approach exposed in cond-mat/0209112 and find that this…
We consider the problem of projecting a convex set onto a subspace, or equivalently formulated, the problem of computing a set obtained by applying a linear mapping to a convex feasible set. This includes the problem of approximating convex…
We consider the constrained Linear Inverse Problem (LIP), where a certain atomic norm (like the $\ell_1 $ norm) is minimized subject to a quadratic constraint. Typically, such cost functions are non-differentiable, which makes them not…
Many combinatorial optimization problems are often considered intractable to solve exactly or by approximation. An example of such problem is maximum clique which -- under standard assumptions in complexity theory -- cannot be solved in…
We introduce a general random model of a combinatorial optimization problem with geometric structure that encapsulates both linear programming and integer linear programming. Let $Q$ be a bounded set called the feasible set, $E$ be an…
Convex maximization encompasses a broad class of optimization problems and is generally NP-hard, even for low-rank objectives. This paper investigates structural conditions under which convex maximization becomes polynomially solvable. From…
Polynomial matrix inequalities can be solved using hierarchies of convex relaxations, pioneered by Henrion and Lassere. In some cases, this might not be practical, and one may need to resort to methods with local convergence guarantees,…
Linear spectral unmixing under nonnegativity and sum-to-one constraints is a convex optimization problem for which many algorithms were proposed. In practice, especially for supervised unmixing (i.e., with a large dictionary), solutions…
We study the polynomial optimization problem of minimizing a multihomogeneous polynomial over the product of spheres. This polynomial optimization problem models the tensor optimization problem of finding the best rank one approximation of…
We present a polynomial-time algorithm that obtains a set of Asymptotic Linear Programs (ALPs) from a given linear system S, such that one of these ALPs admits a feasible solution if and only if S admits a feasible solution. We also show…
Linear differential equations of arbitrary order with polynomial coefficients are considered. Specifically, necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of polynomial solutions of a given degree are obtained for these equations. An…
We prove polynomial-time solvability of a large class of clustering problems where a weighted set of items has to be partitioned into clusters with respect to some balancing constraints. The data points are weighted with respect to…
Polyhedral convex set optimization problems are the simplest optimization problems with set-valued objective function. Their role in set optimization is comparable to the role of linear programs in scalar optimization. Vector linear…
The spherically symmetric static solutions are searched for in some f(T) models of gravity theory with a Maxwell term. To do this, we demonstrate that reconstructing the Lagrangian of f(T) theories is sensitive to the choice of frame, and…
During the last few years several new results on packing problems were obtained using a blend of tools from semidefinite optimization, polynomial optimization, and harmonic analysis. We survey some of these results and the techniques…
Complex polynomial optimization has recently gained more and more attention in both theory and practice. In this paper, we study the optimization of a real-valued general conjugate complex form over various popular constraint sets including…
Composite minimization involves a collection of smooth functions which are aggregated in a nonsmooth manner. In the convex setting, we design an algorithm by linearizing each smooth component in accordance with its main curvature. The…
In this work, we focus on separable convex optimization problems with linear and box constraints and compute the solution in closed-form as a function of some Lagrange multipliers that can be easily computed in a finite number of…
