Smoothing and First Order Methods: A Unified Framework
We propose a unifying framework that combines smoothing approximation with fast first order algorithms for solving nonsmooth convex minimization problems. We prove that independently of the structure of the convex nonsmooth function involved, and of the given fast first order iterative scheme, it is always possible to improve the complexity rate and reach an O(ε−1) efficiency estimate by solvin...
متن کاملFirst-order logical duality
From a logical point of view, Stone duality for Boolean algebras relates theories in classical propositional logic and their collections of models. The theories can be seen as presentations of Boolean algebras, and the collections of models can be topologized in such a way that the theory can be recovered from its space of models. The situation can be cast as a formal duality relating two categ...
متن کاملA Duality Theory with Zero Duality Gap for Nonlinear Programming
Duality is an important notion for constrained optimization which provides a theoretical foundation for a number of constraint decomposition schemes such as separable programming and for deriving lower bounds in space decomposition algorithms such as branch and bound. However, the conventional duality theory has the fundamental limit that it leads to duality gaps for nonconvex optimization prob...
متن کاملAn Efficient Algorithm for Reducing the Duality Gap in a Special Class of the Knapsack Problem
A special class of the knapsack problem is called the separable nonlinear knapsack problem. This problem has received considerable attention recently because of its numerous applications. Dynamic programming is one of the basic approaches for solving this problem. Unfortunately, the size of state-pace will dramatically increase and cause the dimensionality problem. In this paper, an efficient a...
