Optimal Methods for Higher-Order Smooth Monotone Variational Inequalities

Deeksha Adil, Brian Bullins, Arun Jambulapati +1

In this work, we present new simple and optimal algorithms for solving the variational inequality (VI) problem for -order smooth, monotone operators -- a problem that gener…

A Stochastic Newton Algorithm for Distributed Convex Optimization

Brian Bullins, Kumar Kshitij Patel, Ohad Shamir +2

We propose and analyze a stochastic Newton algorithm for homogeneous distributed stochastic convex optimization, where each machine can calculate stochastic gradients of the same p…

The Min-Max Complexity of Distributed Stochastic Convex Optimization with Intermittent Communication

Blake Woodworth, Brian Bullins, Ohad Shamir +1

We resolve the min-max complexity of distributed stochastic convex optimization (up to a log factor) in the intermittent communication setting, where machines work in parallel…

Higher-order methods for convex-concave min-max optimization and monotone variational inequalities

Brian Bullins, Kevin A. Lai

We provide improved convergence rates for constrained convex-concave min-max problems and monotone variational inequalities with higher-order smoothness. In min-max settings where…
