A Class of Inexact Variable Metric Proximal Point Algorithms
For the problem of solving maximal monotone inclusions, we present a rather general class of algorithms, which contains hybrid inexact proximal point methods as a special case and ...

Geometric Duality in Multiple Objective Linear Programming
We develop in this article a geometric approach to duality in Multiple Objective Linear Programming. This approach is based on a very old idea, the duality of polytopes, which can...

Sparse SOS Relaxations for Minimizing Functions that are Summations of Small Polynomials
This paper discusses how to find the global minimum of functions that are summations of small polynomials ("small" means involving a small number of variables). Some spa...

Convergence Rate of an Optimization Algorithm for Minimizing Quadratic Functions with Separable Convex Constraints
A new active set algorithm for minimizing quadratic functions with separable convex constraints is proposed by combining the conjugate gradient method with the projected gradient. ...

On Bin Packing with Conflicts
Abstract. We consider the offline and online versions of a bin packing problem called bin packing with conflicts. Given a set of items V = {1, 2, . . . , n} with sizes s1, s2 . . ....

Embedded in the Shadow of the Separator
Eigenvectors to the second smallest eigenvalue of the Laplace matrix of a graph, also known as Fiedler vectors, are the basic ingredient in spectral graph partitioning heuristics....

Lagrangian-Dual Functions and Moreau--Yosida Regularization
In this paper, we consider the Lagrangian dual problem of a class of convex optimization problems. We first discuss the semismoothness of the Lagrangian-dual function . This prope...

An Inexact SQP Method for Equality Constrained Optimization
We present an algorithm for large-scale equality constrained optimization. The method is based on a characterization of inexact sequential quadratic programming (SQP) steps that ca...
