The random matrix uniformly distributed over the set of all m-by-n matrices over a finite field plays an important role in many branches of information theory. In this paper a generalization of this random matrix, called k-good random…

Let $S(A)$ denote the orbit of a complex or real matrix $A$ under a certain equivalence relation such as unitary similarity, unitary equivalence, unitary congruences etc. Efficient gradient-flow algorithms are constructed to determine the…

We study in this paper a forward-backward-forward dynamical system for solving a mixed variational inequality problem in a real Hilbert space. For the convergence analysis of our proposed system, we apply the Lyapunov analysis to obtain the…

The subspace approximation problem Subspace($k$,$p$) asks for a $k$-dimensional linear subspace that fits a given set of points optimally, where the error for fitting is a generalization of the least squares fit and uses the $\ell_{p}$ norm…

We present an analysis of sets of matrices with rank less than or equal to a specified number $s$. We provide a simple formula for the normal cone to such sets, and use this to show that these sets are prox-regular at all points with rank…

We consider the problem of computing optimal policies in average-reward Markov decision processes. This classical problem can be formulated as a linear program directly amenable to saddle-point optimization methods, albeit with a number of…

We study discrete-time mirror descent applied to the unregularized empirical risk in matrix sensing. In both the general case of rectangular matrices and the particular case of positive semidefinite matrices, a simple potential-based…

We consider the rank minimization problem from quadratic measurements, i.e., recovering a rank $r$ matrix $X \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times r}$ from $m$ scalar measurements $y_i=a_i^{\top} XX^{\top} a_i,\;a_i\in \mathbb{R}^n,\;i=1,\ldots,m$. Such…

Least squares form one of the most prominent classes of optimization problems, with numerous applications in scientific computing and data fitting. When such formulations aim at modeling complex systems, the optimization process must…

We propose a method to improve the computational and memory efficiency of numerical solvers for the nonequilibrium Dyson equation in the Keldysh formalism. It is based on the empirical observation that the nonequilibrium Green's functions…

In this study, we propose an algorithmic framework for solving a class of optimal control problems. This class is associated with the minimum-time interception of moving target problems, where a plant with a given state equation must…

If A_1,...,A_N are real square matrices then the p-radius, generalised Lyapunov exponent or matrix pressure is defined to be the asymptotic exponential growth rate of the sum $\sum_{i_1,\ldots,i_n=1}^N \|A_{i_n}\cdots A_{i_1}\|^p$, where p…

We show that any $n\times m$ matrix $A$ can be approximated in operator norm by a submatrix with a number of columns of order the stable rank of $A$. This improves on existing results by removing an extra logarithmic factor in the size of…

We search for the best fit in Frobenius norm of $A \in {\mathbb C}^{m \times n}$ by a matrix product $B C^*$, where $B \in {\mathbb C}^{m \times r}$ and $C \in {\mathbb C}^{n \times r}$, $r \le m$ so $B = \{b_{ij}\}$, ($i=1, \dots, m$,~…

Given a square complex matrix $A$, we tackle the problem of finding the nearest matrix with multiple eigenvalues or, equivalently when $A$ had distinct eigenvalues, the nearest defective matrix. To this goal, we extend the general framework…

This paper considers general rank-constrained optimization problems that minimize a general objective function $f(X)$ over the set of rectangular $n\times m$ matrices that have rank at most $r$. To tackle the rank constraint and also to…

Matrix factorization is a popular approach for large-scale matrix completion. The optimization formulation based on matrix factorization can be solved very efficiently by standard algorithms in practice. However, due to the non-convexity…

We develop two simple and efficient approximation algorithms for the continuous $k$-medians problems, where we seek to find the optimal location of $k$ facilities among a continuum of client points in a convex polygon $C$ with $n$ vertices…

Nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF), which is the approximation of a data matrix as the product of two nonnegative matrices, is a key issue in machine learning and data analysis. One approach to NMF is to formulate the problem as a…

In this paper, we consider finding a low-rank approximation to the solution of a large-scale generalized Lyapunov matrix equation in the form of $A X M + M X A = C$, where $A$ and $M$ are symmetric positive definite matrices. An algorithm…
