Adaptive regularization with cubics (ARC) is an algorithm for unconstrained, non-convex optimization. Akin to the popular trust-region method, its iterations can be thought of as approximate, safe-guarded Newton steps. For cost functions with Lipschitz continuous Hessian, ARC has optimal iteration complexity, in the sense that it produces an iterate with gradient smaller than $varepsilon$ in $O(1/varepsilon^{1.5})$ iterations. For the same price, it can also guarantee a Hessian with smallest eigenvalue larger than $-varepsilon^{1/2}$. In this paper, we study a generalization of ARC to optimization on Riemannian manifolds. In particular, we generalize the iteration complexity results to this richer framework. Our central contribution lies in the identification of appropriate manifold-specific assumptions that allow us to secure these complexity guarantees both when using the exponential map and when using a general retraction. A substantial part of the paper is devoted to studying these assumptions---relevant beyond ARC---and providing user-friendly sufficient conditions for them. Numerical experiments are encouraging.

Anderson acceleration (AA) is a popular method for accelerating fixed-point iterations, but may suffer from instability and stagnation. We propose a globalization method for AA to improve stability and achieve unified global and local convergence. Un like existing AA globalization approaches that rely on safeguarding operations and might hinder fast local convergence, we adopt a nonmonotone trust-region framework and introduce an adaptive quadratic regularization together with a tailored acceptance mechanism. We prove global convergence and show that our algorithm attains the same local convergence as AA under appropriate assumptions. The effectiveness of our method is demonstrated in several numerical experiments.
We study the equilibrium problem on general Riemannian manifolds. The results on existence of solutions and on the convex structure of the solution set are established. Our approach consists in relating the equilibrium problem to a suitable variation al inequality problem on Riemannian manifolds, and is completely different from previous ones on this topic in the literature. As applications, the corresponding results for the mixed variational inequality and the Nash equilibrium are obtained. Moreover, we formulate and analyze the convergence of the proximal point algorithm for the equilibrium problem. In particular, correct proofs are provided for the results claimed in J. Math. Anal. Appl. 388, 61-77, 2012 (i.e., Theorems 3.5 and 4.9 there) regarding the existence of the mixed variational inequality and the domain of the resolvent for the equilibrium problem on Hadamard manifolds.
A flag is a sequence of nested subspaces. Flags are ubiquitous in numerical analysis, arising in finite elements, multigrid, spectral, and pseudospectral methods for numerical PDE; they arise in the form of Krylov subspaces in matrix computations, an d as multiresolution analysis in wavelets constructions. They are common in statistics too --- principal component, canonical correlation, and correspondence analyses may all be viewed as methods for extracting flags from a data set. The main goal of this article is to develop the tools needed for optimizing over a set of flags, which is a smooth manifold called the flag manifold, and it contains the Grassmannian as the simplest special case. We will derive closed-form analytic expressions for various differential geometric objects required for Riemannian optimization algorithms on the flag manifold; introducing various systems of extrinsic coordinates that allow us to parameterize points, metrics, tangent spaces, geodesics, distance, parallel transport, gradients, Hessians in terms of matrices and matrix operations; and thereby permitting us to formulate steepest descent, conjugate gradient, and Newton algorithms on the flag manifold using only standard numerical linear algebra.
We develop a new Riemannian descent algorithm that relies on momentum to improve over existing first-order methods for geodesically convex optimization. In contrast, accelerated convergence rates proved in prior work have only been shown to hold for geodesically strongly-convex objective functions. We further extend our algorithm to geodesically weakly-quasi-convex objectives. Our proofs of convergence rely on a novel estimate sequence that illustrates the dependency of the convergence rate on the curvature of the manifold. We validate our theoretical results empirically on several optimization problems defined on the sphere and on the manifold of positive definite matrices.
