A first-order method for nonconvex-strongly-concave constrained minimax optimization

Zhaosong Lu, Sanyou Mei

In this paper we study a nonconvex-strongly-concave constrained minimax problem. Specifically, we propose a first-order augmented Lagrangian method for solving it, whose subproblem…

A first-order method for constrained nonconvex-nonconcave minimax optimization

Zhaosong Lu, Xiangyuan Wang

We study a class of constrained nonconvex-nonconcave minimax optimization problems in which the inner maximization involves potentially complex constraints. Under the assumption th…

A first-order method for nonconvex-nonconcave minimax problems under a local Kurdyka-Lojasiewicz condition

Zhaosong Lu, Xiangyuan Wang

We study a class of nonconvex-nonconcave minimax problems in which the inner maximization problem satisfies a local Kurdyka-Lojasiewicz (KL) condition that may vary with the outer…
