Online convex optimization in the bandit setting: gradient descent without a gradient
We study a general online convex optimization problem. We have a convex set S and an unknown sequence of cost functions c1, c2, . . . , and in each period, we choose a feasible po...

Uniform Direct Product Theorems: Simplified, Optimized, and Derandomized
The classical direct product theorem for circuits says that if a Boolean function f : {0, 1}n → {0, 1} is somewhat hard to compute on average by small circuits, then the correspo...

Online stochastic optimization under time constraints
This paper considers online stochastic optimization problems where uncertainties are characterized by a distribution that can be sampled and where time constraints severely limit t...

A null-space primal-dual interior-point algorithm for nonlinear optimization with nice convergence properties
Abstract. We present a null-space primal-dual interior-point algorithm for solving nonlinear optimization problems with general inequality and equality constraints. The algorithm a...
