Perturbed Fenchel duality and first-order methods

David H. Gutman, Javier F. Peña

We show that the iterates generated by a generic first-order meta-algorithm satisfy a canonical perturbed Fenchel duality inequality. The latter in turn readily yields a unified de…

A data-independent distance to infeasibility for linear conic systems

Javier Pena, Vera Roshchina

We offer a unified treatment of distinct measures of well-posedness for homogeneous conic systems. To that end, we introduce a distance to infeasibility based entirely on geometric…

An algorithm to compute the Hoffman constant of a system of linear constraints

Javier Pena, Juan Vera, Luis Zuluaga

We propose a combinatorial algorithm to compute the Hoffman constant of a system of linear equations and inequalities. The algorithm is based on a characterization of the Hoffman c…

Computational performance of a projection and rescaling algorithm

Javier Pena, Negar Soheili

This paper documents a computational implementation of a {\em projection and rescaling algorithm} for finding most interior solutions to the pair of feasibility problems \[ \text{f…

The condition of a function relative to a polytope

David H. Gutman, Javier F. Pena

The condition number of a smooth convex function, namely the ratio of its smoothness to strong convexity constants, is closely tied to fundamental properties of the function. In pa…

Convergence rates of proximal gradient methods via the convex conjugate

David H. Gutman, Javier F. Pena

We give a novel proof of the and convergence rates of the proximal gradient and accelerated proximal gradient methods for composite convex minimization. The cru…
