Linear Convergence and Error Bounds for Optimization Without Strong Convexity

Kira van Treek, Javier F. Peña, Juan C. Vera +1

Many optimization algorithms$\unicode{x2013}$including gradient descent, proximal methods, and operator splitting techniques$\unicode{x2013}$can be formulated as fixed-point iterat…

Duality of Hoffman constants

Javier F. Pena, Juan C. Vera, Luis F. Zuluaga

We show that a suitable Slater condition implies a duality inequality between the Hoffman constants of the following feasibility problems: $$ \begin{array}{r} Ax-b \in S\\ x \in R…

Affine invariant convergence rates of the conditional gradient method

Javier Pena

We show that the conditional gradient method for the convex composite problem \[\min_x\{f(x) + Ψ(x)\}\] generates primal and dual iterates with a duality gap converging to zero pro…

Linear convergence of the Douglas-Rachford algorithm via a generic error bound condition

Javier Peña, Juan C. Vera, Luis F. Zuluaga

We provide new insight into the convergence properties of the Douglas-Rachford algorithm for the problem , where and are convex functions. Our approac…

Projection and rescaling algorithm for finding maximum support solutions to polyhedral conic systems

Javier Pena, Negar Soheili

We propose a simple projection and rescaling algorithm that finds maximum support solutions to the pair of feasibility problems \[ \text{find} \; x\in L\cap\mathbb{R}^n_{+} \;\;\;\…
