The Iterates of Nesterov's Accelerated Algorithm Converge in The Critical Regimes

Radu Ioan Bot, Jalal Fadili, Dang-Khoa Nguyen

In this paper, we prove that the iterates of the accelerated Nesterov's algorithm in the critical regime do converge in the weak topology to a global minimizer of an -smooth fun…

Recovering Nesterov accelerated dynamics from Heavy Ball dynamics via time rescaling

Hedy Attouch, Radu Ioan Bot, David Alexander Hulett +1

In a real Hilbert space, we consider two classical problems: the global minimization of a smooth and convex function (i.e., a convex optimization problem) and finding the zeros…
