Convex optimization via inertial algorithms with vanishing Tikhonov regularization: fast convergence to the minimum norm solution

In a Hilbertian framework, for the minimization of a general convex differentiable function $f$, we introduce new inertial dynamics and algorithms that generate trajectories and iterates that converge fastly towards the minimizer of $f$ with minimum norm. Our study is based on the non-autonomous version of the Polyak heavy ball method, which, at time $t$, is associated with the strongly convex function obtained by adding to $f$ a Tikhonov regularization term with vanishing coefficient $ε(t)$. In this dynamic, the damping coefficient is proportional to the square root of the Tikhonov regularization parameter $ε(t)$. By adjusting the speed of convergence of $ε(t)$ towards zero, we will obtain both rapid convergence towards the infimal value of $f$, and the strong convergence of the trajectories towards the element of minimum norm of the set of minimizers of $f$. In particular, we obtain an improved version of the dynamic of Su-Boyd-Candès for the accelerated gradient method of Nesterov. This study naturally leads to corresponding first-order algorithms obtained by temporal discretization. In the case of a proper lower semicontinuous and convex function $f$, we study the proximal algorithms in detail, and show that they benefit from similar properties.

A primal-dual dynamical approach to structured convex minimization problems

In this paper we propose a primal-dual dynamical approach to the minimization of a structured convex function consisting of a smooth term, a nonsmooth term, and the composition of another nonsmooth term with a linear continuous operator. In this scope we introduce a dynamical system for which we prove that its trajectories asymptotically converge to a saddle point of the Lagrangian of the underlying convex minimization problem as time tends to infinity. In addition, we provide rates for both the violation of the feasibility condition by the ergodic trajectories and the convergence of the objective function along these ergodic trajectories to its minimal value. Explicit time discretization of the dynamical system results in a numerical algorithm which is a combination of the linearized proximal method of multipliers and the proximal ADMM algorithm.

Vector Equilibrium Problems on Dense Sets

In this paper we provide sufficient conditions that ensure the existence of the solution of some vector equilibrium problems in Hausdorff topological vector spaces ordered by a cone. The conditions that we consider are imposed not on the whole domain of the operators involved, but rather on a self segment-dense subset of it, a special type of dense subset. We apply the results obtained to vector optimization and vector variational inequalities.

On the generalized parallel sum of two maximal monotone operators of Gossez type (D)

The generalized parallel sum of two monotone operators via a linear continuous mapping is defined as the inverse of the sum of the inverse of one of the operators and with inverse of the composition of the second one with the linear continuous mapping. In this article, by assuming that the operators are maximal monotone of Gossez type (D), we provide sufficient conditions of both interiority- and closedness-type for guaranteeing that their generalized sum via a linear continuous mapping is maximal monotone of Gossez type (D), too. This result will follow as a particular instance of a more general one concerning the maximal monotonicity of Gossez type (D) of an extended parallel sum defined for the maximal monotone extensions of the two operators to the corresponding biduals.
