A Lyapunov analysis of Korpelevich's extragradient method with fast and flexible extensions

Manu Upadhyaya, Puya Latafat, Pontus Giselsson

We develop a Lyapunov-based analysis of Korpelevich's extragradient method and show that it achieves an last-iterate convergence rate of the constructed Lyapunov function.…

A proximal augmented Lagrangian method for nonconvex optimization with equality and inequality constraints

Adeyemi D. Adeoye, Puya Latafat, Alberto Bemporad

We propose an inexact proximal augmented Lagrangian method (P-ALM) for nonconvex structured optimization problems. The proposed method features an easily implementable rule not onl…

Spingarn's Method and Progressive Decoupling Beyond Elicitable Monotonicity

Brecht Evens, Puya Latafat, Panagiotis Patrinos

Spingarn's method of partial inverses and the progressive decoupling algorithm address inclusion problems involving the sum of an operator and the normal cone of a linear subspace,…

Convergence of the Chambolle-Pock Algorithm in the Absence of Monotonicity

Brecht Evens, Puya Latafat, Panagiotis Patrinos

The Chambolle-Pock algorithm (CPA), also known as the primal-dual hybrid gradient method, has gained popularity over the last decade due to its success in solving large-scale conve…
