Functional inequalities along Wasserstein geodesics

Nathael Gozlan, Hugo Malamut, Irène Waldspurger

We study functional inequalities along Wasserstein geodesics. If 0 and 1 are respectively 0 -and 1 -strongly log-concave probability measures on R n , we prove that…

Phase Transition in Convex Relaxations for Graph Alignment

Laurent Massoulié, Sushil Mahavir Varma, Louis Vassaux +1

We study the graph alignment problem for correlated Gaussian Orthogonal Ensemble (GOE) matrices, where the goal is to recover a hidden vertex permutation given two correlated symme…

Graph Alignment via Birkhoff Relaxation

Sushil Mahavir Varma, Irène Waldspurger, Laurent Massoulié

We consider the graph alignment problem, wherein the objective is to find a vertex correspondence between two graphs that maximizes the edge overlap. The graph alignment problem is…

Benign landscape for Burer-Monteiro factorizations of MaxCut-type semidefinite programs

Faniriana Rakoto Endor, Irène Waldspurger

We consider MaxCut-type semidefinite programs (SDP) which admit a low rank solution. To numerically leverage the low rank hypothesis, a standard algorithmic approach is the Burer-M…

Projected gradient descent accumulates at Bouligand stationary points

Guillaume Olikier, Irène Waldspurger

This paper considers the projected gradient descent (PGD) algorithm for the problem of minimizing a continuously differentiable function on a nonempty closed subset of a Euclidean…
