In order to prove weak convergence of the periodic multiplicative Selmer algorithm we ensure that the periodicity matrix is positive and establish a relation between its entries and eigenvalues. Since we can imply that the limit of these…

We propose a new iterative procedure to optimize the restart for meta-heuristic algorithms to solve combinatorial optimization, which uses independent algorithm executions. The new procedure consists of either adding new executions or…

The regret matching algorithm proposed by Sergiu Hart is one of the most powerful iterative methods in finding correlated equilibrium. However, it is possibly not efficient enough, especially in large scale problems. We first rewrite the…

This paper is devoted to studying the global and finite convergence of the semi-smooth Newton method for solving a piecewise linear system that arises in cone-constrained quadratic programming problems and absolute value equations. We first…

Aussel et al. (J Optim Theory Appl 170 818-837 2016) introduced the concept of projected solutions for the quasi-variational inequalities with a non-self constraint map, that is, the case where the constraint map may take values outside the…

The Kaczmarz algorithm is an iterative method that solves linear systems of equations. It stands out among iterative algorithms when dealing with large systems for two reasons. First, at each iteration, the Kaczmarz algorithm uses a single…

Iterative phase retrieval algorithms typically employ projections onto constraint subspaces to recover the unknown phases in the Fourier transform of an image, or, in the case of x-ray crystallography, the electron density of a molecule.…

In this work, we state a general conjecture on the solvability of optimization problems via algorithms with linear convergence guarantees. We make a first step towards examining its correctness by fully characterizing the problems that are…

We consider infinite horizon dynamic programming problems, where the control at each stage consists of several distinct decisions, each one made by one of several agents. In an earlier work we introduced a policy iteration algorithm, where…

Given a random matrix A with eigenvalues between -1 and 1, we analyze the number of iterations needed to solve the linear equation (I-A)x=b with the Neumann series iteration. We give sufficient conditions for convergence of an upper bound…

We derive a formula that simplifies the original asymptotic iteration method formulation to find the energy eigenvalues for the analytically solvable cases. We then show that there is a connection between the asymptotic iteration and the…

We present a new algorithm and the corresponding convergence analysis for the regularization of linear inverse problems with sparsity constraints, applied to a new generalized sparsity promoting functional. The algorithm is based on the…

It has been proposed that classical filtering methods, like the Kalman filter and 3DVAR, can be used to solve linear statistical inverse problems. In the work of Iglesias, Lin, Lu, & Stuart (2017), error estimates were obtained for this…

The analysis of second-order optimization methods based either on sub-sampling, randomization or sketching has two serious shortcomings compared to the conventional Newton method. The first shortcoming is that the analysis of the iterates…

The network alignment problem asks for the best correspondence between two given graphs, so that the largest possible number of edges are matched. This problem appears in many scientific problems (like the study of protein-protein…

Incremental methods are widely utilized for solving finite-sum optimization problems in machine learning and signal processing. In this paper, we study a family of incremental methods -- including incremental subgradient, incremental…

In this paper, we propose a new policy iteration algorithm to compute the value function and the optimal controls of continuous time stochastic control problems. The algorithm relies on successive approximations using linear-quadratic…

In this paper, a class of optimization problems with nonlinear inequality constraints is discussed. Based on the ideas of sequential quadratic programming algorithm and the method of strongly sub-feasible directions, a new superlinearly…

We introduce a unified framework for iterative reasoning that leverages non-Euclidean geometry via Bregman divergences, higher-order operator averaging, and adaptive feedback mechanisms. Our analysis establishes that, under mild smoothness…

Symmetry is inherent in the definition of most of the two-player zero-sum games, including parity, mean-payoff, and discounted-payoff games. It is therefore quite surprising that no symmetric analysis techniques for these games exist. We…
