Numerical Construction of Elliptic Lower-Dimensional Quasi-Periodic Solutions with a Priori Bound

A numerical framework for constructing full-dimensional quasi-periodic solutions in nearly integrable systems was recently developed by Fu and Shi[2026]. Based on an alternating scheme, this approach effectively overcomes the secular drift in angle variables, a fundamental limitation of symplectic integrators. However, in many applications, such as the restricted three-body problem, lower-dimensional quasi-periodic solutions hold greater significance. The construction of these solutions is considerably more challenging due to the presence of normal frequencies, leading to intricate resonance phenomena. Beyond the subspace resonance, one must also account for the first and second Melnikov conditions to eliminate small divisors. In this study, we extend the proposed alternating numerical scheme to compute the elliptic lower-dimensional quasi-periodic solutions. Numerical experiments are presented for the H\'{e}non-Heiles model and the Fermi--Pasta--Ulam (FPU) model, demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed method. Furthermore, we emphasize that the perturbation is not merely a polynomial with real coefficients but is a real-valued function. As a result, the associated perturbation operator exhibits Gevrey decay without possessing a Hankel structure. Meanwhile, we further simplify the multi-scale analysis by exploiting the resolvent identity, showing that the global inverse can be expressed linearly in terms of local inverses via the gluing procedure. This representation reveals a regime-dependent interaction structure: weak interactions dominate at short range, while strong interactions emerge at long range. This balance ensures that the Gevrey decay of the inverse remains uniformly controlled. Moreover, within this linear representation, the inversion conditions provide a clearer characterization of the localization properties.

Numerical Construction of Quasi-Periodic Solutions Beyond Symplectic Integrators

Symplectic integrators are the established standard for long-term simulations of nearly-integrable Hamiltonian systems due to their preservation of geometric structures. However, they suffer from an inherent limitation: secular phase-shift errors. While the qualitative ''shape'' of invariant tori is preserved, the numerical solution gradually drifts along the torus, leading to a phase-lag accumulation that degrades long-term positional accuracy. Inspired by the Craig-Wayne-Bourgain (CWB) scheme, originally developed as an analytical tool for infinite-dimensional systems, we introduce a numerical operator that incorporates frequency updates into a dimension-enlarged Newton iteration to compute quasi-periodic solutions. Unlike conventional time-stepping integrators, our alternating numerical procedure eliminates phase-lag accumulation by directly solving for instantaneous positions and phase angles. Theoretically, provided sufficient computational resources, the phase error can be reduced arbitrarily, remaining independent of the total integration time. Our algorithm translates the Nash-Moser iteration into a practical numerical framework, marking a significant departure from traditional Kolmogorov-Arnold-Moser (KAM) theory. While KAM provides rigorous existence proofs, its requirement for global Diophantine conditions and the total exclusion of resonant sets render it numerically inaccessible. By employing a ''step-by-step'' exclusion process and incrementally enlarging the dimension, our algorithm resolves irrationality conditions locally. This approach demonstrates that the ''numerical irrationality problem'' is not an intrinsic barrier to computation, offering a constructive, executable alternative to the non-executable nature of global KAM-based methods.

A Family of Controllable Momentum Coefficients for Forward-Backward Accelerated Algorithms

Nesterov's accelerated gradient method (NAG) marks a pivotal advancement in gradient-based optimization, achieving faster convergence compared to the vanilla gradient descent method for convex functions. However, its algorithmic complexity when applied to strongly convex functions remains unknown, as noted in the comprehensive review by Chambolle and Pock [2016]. This issue, aside from the critical step size, was addressed by Li et al. [2024b], with the monotonic case further explored by Fu and Shi [2024]. In this paper, we introduce a family of controllable momentum coefficients for forward-backward accelerated methods, focusing on the critical step size $s=1/L$. Unlike traditional linear forms, the proposed momentum coefficients follow an $\alpha$-th power structure, where the parameter $r$ is adaptively tuned to $\alpha$. Using a Lyapunov function specifically designed for $\alpha$, we establish a controllable $O\left(1/k^{2\alpha} \right)$ convergence rate for the NAG-$\alpha$ method, provided that $r > 2\alpha$. At the critical step size, NAG-$\alpha$ achieves an inverse polynomial convergence rate of arbitrary degree by adjusting $r$ according to $\alpha > 0$. We further simplify the Lyapunov function by expressing it in terms of the iterative sequences $x_k$ and $y_k$, eliminating the need for phase-space representations. This simplification enables us to extend the controllable $O \left(1/k^{2\alpha} \right)$ rate to the monotonic variant, M-NAG-$\alpha$, thereby enhancing optimization efficiency. Finally, by leveraging the fundamental inequality for composite functions, we extended the controllable $O\left(1/k^{2\alpha} \right)$ rate to proximal algorithms, including the fast iterative shrinkage-thresholding algorithm (FISTA-$\alpha$) and its monotonic counterpart (M-FISTA-$\alpha$).

Lyapunov Analysis For Monotonically Forward-Backward Accelerated Algorithms

Nesterov's accelerated gradient method (NAG) achieves faster convergence than gradient descent for convex optimization but lacks monotonicity in function values. To address this, Beck and Teboulle [2009b] proposed a monotonic variant, M-NAG, and extended it to the proximal setting as M-FISTA for composite problems such as Lasso. However, establishing the linear convergence of M-NAG and M-FISTA under strong convexity remains an open problem. In this paper, we analyze M-NAG via the implicit-velocity phase representation and show that an additional assumption, either the position update or the phase-coupling relation, is necessary to fully recover the NAG iterates. The essence of M-NAG lies in controlling an auxiliary sequence to enforce non-increase. We further demonstrate that the M-NAG update alone is sufficient to construct a Lyapunov function guaranteeing linear convergence, without relying on full NAG iterates. By modifying the mixed sequence to incorporate forward-indexed gradients, we develop a new Lyapunov function that removes the kinetic energy term, enabling a direct extension to M-NAG. The required starting index depends only on the momentum parameter and not on problem constants. Finally, leveraging newly developed proximal inequalities, we extend our results to M-FISTA, establishing its linear convergence and deepening the theoretical understanding of monotonic accelerated methods.
