Entropic proximal decomposition methods for convex programs and variational inequalities 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
We consider convex optimization and variational inequality problems with a given separable structure. We propose a new decomposition
method for these problems which combines the recent logarithmic-quadratic proximal theory introduced by the authors with a
decomposition method given by Chen-Teboulle for convex problems with particular structure. The resulting method allows to
produce for the first time provably convergent decomposition schemes based on C
∞ Lagrangians for solving convex structured problems. Under the only assumption that the primal-dual problems have nonempty
solution sets, global convergence of the primal-dual sequences produced by the algorithm is established.

A trust region method based on interior point techniques for nonlinear programming 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15
An algorithm for minimizing a nonlinear function subject to nonlinear inequality constraints is described. It applies sequential
quadratic programming techniques to a sequence of barrier problems, and uses trust regions to ensure the robustness of the
iteration and to allow the direct use of second order derivatives. This framework permits primal and primal-dual steps, but
the paper focuses on the primal version of the new algorithm. An analysis of the convergence properties of this method is
presented.

We obtain local estimates of the distance to a set defined by equality constraints under assumptions which are weaker than
those previously used in the literature. Specifically, we assume that the constraints mapping has a Lipschitzian derivative,
and satisfies a certain 2-regularity condition at the point under consideration. This setting directly subsumes the classical
regular case and the twice differentiable 2-regular case, for which error bounds are known, but it is significantly richer
than either of these two cases. When applied to a certain equation-based reformulation of the nonlinear complementarity problem,
our results yield an error bound under an assumption more general than b-regularity. The latter appears to be the weakest assumption under which a local error bound for complementarity problems
was previously available. We also discuss an application of our results to the convergence rate analysis of the exterior penalty
method for solving irregular problems.

In this paper necessary, and sufficient optimality conditions are established without Lipschitz continuity for convex composite
continuous optimization model problems subject to inequality constraints. Necessary conditions for the special case of the
optimization model involving max-min constraints, which frequently arise in many engineering applications, are also given. Optimality conditions in the presence
of Lipschitz continuity are routinely obtained using chain rule formulas of the Clarke generalized Jacobian which is a bounded
set of matrices. However, the lack of derivative of a continuous map in the absence of Lipschitz continuity is often replaced
by a locally unbounded generalized Jacobian map for which the standard form of the chain rule formulas fails to hold. In this
paper we overcome this situation by constructing approximate Jacobians for the convex composite function involved in the model
problem using ε-perturbations of the subdifferential of the convex function and the flexible generalized calculus of unbounded
approximate Jacobians. Examples are discussed to illustrate the nature of the optimality conditions.

Based on the authors’ previous work which established theoretical foundations of two, conceptual, successive convex relaxation
methods, i.e., the SSDP (Successive Semidefinite Programming) Relaxation Method and the SSILP (Successive Semi-Infinite Linear Programming)
Relaxation Method, this paper proposes their implementable variants for general quadratic optimization problems. These problems
have a linear objective function c
T
x to be maximized over a nonconvex compact feasible region F described by a finite number of quadratic inequalities. We introduce two new techniques, “discretization” and “localization,”
into the SSDP and SSILP Relaxation Methods. The discretization technique makes it possible to approximate an infinite number
of semi-infinite SDPs (or semi-infinite LPs) which appeared at each iteration of the original methods by a finite number of
standard SDPs (or standard LPs) with a finite number of linear inequality constraints. We establish:?•Given any open convex set U containing F, there is an implementable discretization of the SSDP (or SSILP) Relaxation Method
which generates a compact convex set C such that F⊆C⊆U in a finite number of iterations.?The localization technique is for the cases where we are only interested in upper bounds on the optimal objective value (for
a fixed objective function vector c) but not in a global approximation of the convex hull of F. This technique allows us to generate a convex relaxation of F that is accurate only in certain directions in a neighborhood of the objective direction c. This cuts off redundant work to make the convex relaxation accurate in unnecessary directions. We establish:?•Given any positive number ε, there is an implementable localization-discretization of the SSDP (or SSILP) Relaxation Method
which generates an upper bound of the objective value within ε of its maximum in a finite number of iterations.

The feasible set of a convex semi–infinite program is described by a possibly infinite system of convex inequality constraints.
We want to obtain an upper bound for the distance of a given point from this set in terms of a constant multiplied by the
value of the maximally violated constraint function in this point. Apart from this Lipschitz case we also consider error bounds
of H?lder type, where the value of the residual of the constraints is raised to a certain power.?We give sufficient conditions
for the validity of such bounds. Our conditions do not require that the Slater condition is valid. For the definition of our
conditions, we consider the projections on enlarged sets corresponding to relaxed constraints. We present a condition in terms
of projection multipliers, a condition in terms of Slater points and a condition in terms of descent directions. For the Lipschitz
case, we give five equivalent characterizations of the validity of a global error bound.?We extend previous results in two
directions: First, we consider infinite systems of inequalities instead of finite systems. The second point is that we do
not assume that the Slater condition holds which has been required in almost all earlier papers.

In this paper, an algorithm of barrier objective penalty function for inequality constrained optimization is studied and a conception–the stability of barrier objective penalty function is presented. It is proved that an approximate optimal solution may be obtained by solving a barrier objective penalty function for inequality constrained optimization problem when the barrier objective penalty function is stable. Under some conditions, the stability of barrier objective penalty function is proved for convex programming. Specially, the logarithmic barrier function of convex programming is stable. Based on the barrier objective penalty function, an algorithm is developed for finding an approximate optimal solution to an inequality constrained optimization problem and its convergence is also proved under some conditions. Finally, numerical experiments show that the barrier objective penalty function algorithm has better convergence than the classical barrier function algorithm. 相似文献

The strategy for obtaining global convergence is based on the trust region approach. The merit function is a type of augmented
Lagrangian. A new updating scheme is introduced for the penalty parameter, by means of which monotone increase is not necessary.
Global convergence results are proved and numerical experiments are presented.

Nonlinear programming without a penalty function 总被引:57,自引:0,他引:57
In this paper the solution of nonlinear programming problems by a Sequential Quadratic Programming (SQP) trust-region algorithm
is considered. The aim of the present work is to promote global convergence without the need to use a penalty function. Instead,
a new concept of a “filter” is introduced which allows a step to be accepted if it reduces either the objective function or
the constraint violation function. Numerical tests on a wide range of test problems are very encouraging and the new algorithm
compares favourably with LANCELOT and an implementation of Sl1QP.

It is well known that a function f of the real variable x is convex if and only if (x,y)→yf(y
-1
x),y>0 is convex. This is used to derive a recursive proof of the convexity of the multiplicative potential function. In this
paper, we obtain a conjugacy formula which gives rise, as a corollary, to a new rule for generating new convex functions from
old ones. In particular, it allows to extend the aforementioned property to functions of the form (x,y)→g(y)f(g(y)-1
x) and provides a new tool for the study of the multiplicative potential and penalty functions.

On the superlinear convergence of the variable metric proximal point algorithm using Broyden and BFGS matrix secant updating 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
In previous work, the authors provided a foundation for the theory of variable metric proximal point algorithms in Hilbert
space. In that work conditions are developed for global, linear, and super–linear convergence. This paper focuses attention
on two matrix secant updating strategies for the finite dimensional case. These are the Broyden and BFGS updates. The BFGS
update is considered for application in the symmetric case, e.g., convex programming applications, while the Broyden update
can be applied to general monotone operators. Subject to the linear convergence of the iterates and a quadratic growth condition
on the inverse of the operator at the solution, super–linear convergence of the iterates is established for both updates.
These results are applied to show that the Chen–Fukushima variable metric proximal point algorithm is super–linearly convergent
when implemented with the BFGS update.

We study a general subgradient projection method for minimizing a quasiconvex objective subject to a convex set constraint
in a Hilbert space. Our setting is very general: the objective is only upper semicontinuous on its domain, which need not
be open, and various subdifferentials may be used. We extend previous results by proving convergence in objective values and
to the generalized solution set for classical stepsizes t
k
→0, ∑t
k
=∞, and weak or strong convergence of the iterates to a solution for {t
k
}∈ℓ2∖ℓ1 under mild regularity conditions. For bounded constraint sets and suitable stepsizes, the method finds ε-solutions with an
efficiency estimate of O(ε-2), thus being optimal in the sense of Nemirovskii.

Conditions ensuring the applicability of cutting-plane methods for solving variational inequalities 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Let VIP(F,C) denote the variational inequality problem associated with the mapping F and the closed convex set C. In this paper we introduce weak conditions on the mapping F that allow the development of a convergent cutting-plane framework for solving VIP(F,C). In the process we introduce, in a natural way, new and useful notions of generalized monotonicity for which first order
characterizations are presented.

A trust region and affine scaling interior point method for nonconvex minimization with linear inequality constraints 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
A trust region and affine scaling interior point method (TRAM) is proposed for a general nonlinear minimization with linear
inequality constraints [8]. In the proposed approach, a Newton step is derived from the complementarity conditions. Based
on this Newton step, a trust region subproblem is formed, and the original objective function is monotonically decreased.
Explicit sufficient decrease conditions are proposed for satisfying the first order and second order necessary conditions.?The
objective of this paper is to establish global and local convergence properties of the proposed trust region and affine scaling
interior point method. It is shown that the proposed explicit decrease conditions are sufficient for satisfy complementarity,
dual feasibility and second order necessary conditions respectively. It is also established that a trust region solution is
asymptotically in the interior of the proposed trust region subproblem and a properly damped trust region step can achieve
quadratic convergence.

This paper proposes nonlinear Lagrangians based on modified Fischer-Burmeister NCP
functions for solving nonlinear programming problems with inequality constraints. The
convergence theorem shows that the sequence of points generated by this nonlinear Lagrange algorithm is locally convergent when the penalty parameter is less than a threshold
under a set of suitable conditions on problem functions, and the error bound of solution,
depending on the penalty parameter, is also established. It is shown that the condition
number of the nonlinear Lagrangian Hessian at the optimal solution is proportional to the
controlling penalty parameter. Moreover, the paper develops the dual algorithm associated with the proposed nonlinear Lagrangians. Numerical results reported suggest that
the dual algorithm based on proposed nonlinear Lagrangians is effective for solving some
nonlinear optimization problems. 相似文献

In this paper we propose a recursive quadratic programming algorithm for nonlinear programming problems with inequality constraints that uses as merit function a differentiable exact penalty function. The algorithm incorporates an automatic adjustment rule for the selection of the penalty parameter and makes use of an Armijo-type line search procedure that avoids the need to evaluate second order derivatives of the problem functions. We prove that the algorithm possesses global and superlinear convergence properties. Numerical results are reported. 相似文献

A null-space primal-dual interior-point algorithm for nonlinear optimization with nice convergence properties 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We present a null-space primal-dual interior-point algorithm for solving nonlinear optimization problems with general inequality
and equality constraints. The algorithm approximately solves a sequence of equality constrained barrier subproblems by computing
a range-space step and a null-space step in every iteration. The ℓ2 penalty function is taken as the merit function. Under very mild conditions on range-space steps and approximate Hessians,
without assuming any regularity, it is proved that either every limit point of the iterate sequence is a Karush-Kuhn-Tucker
point of the barrier subproblem and the penalty parameter remains bounded, or there exists a limit point that is either an
infeasible stationary point of minimizing the ℓ
2 norm of violations of constraints of the original problem, or a Fritz-John point of the original problem. In addition, we
analyze the local convergence properties of the algorithm, and prove that by suitably controlling the exactness of range-space
steps and selecting the barrier parameter and Hessian approximation, the algorithm generates a superlinearly or quadratically
convergent step. The conditions on guaranteeing that all slack variables are still positive for a full step are presented. 相似文献

We analyze the convergence of a sequential quadratic programming (SQP) method for nonlinear programming for the case in which
the Jacobian of the active constraints is rank deficient at the solution and/or strict complementarity does not hold for some
or any feasible Lagrange multipliers. We use a nondifferentiable exact penalty function, and we prove that the sequence generated
by an SQP using a line search is locally R-linearly convergent if the matrix of the quadratic program is positive definite
and constant over iterations, provided that the Mangasarian-Fromovitz constraint qualification and some second-order sufficiency
conditions hold.
