Generalized trust-region subproblem (GT) is a nonconvex quadratic optimization with a single quadratic constraint. It reduces to the classical trust-region subproblem (T) if the constraint set is a Euclidean ball. (GT) is polynomially solvable based on its inherent hidden convexity. In this paper, we study local minimizers of (GT). Unlike (T) with at most one local nonglobal minimizer, we can prove that two-dimensional (GT) has at most two local nonglobal minimizers, which are shown by example to be attainable. The main contribution of this paper is to prove that, at any local nonglobal minimizer of (GT), not only the strict complementarity condition holds, but also the standard second-order sufficient optimality condition remains necessary. As a corollary, finding all local nonglobal minimizers of (GT) or proving the nonexistence can be done in polynomial time. Finally, for (GT) in complex domain, we prove that there is no local nonglobal minimizer, which demonstrates that real-valued optimization problem may be more difficult to solve than its complex version.

We study nonconvex homogeneous quadratically constrained quadratic optimization with one or two constraints, denoted by (QQ1) and (QQ2), respectively. (QQ2) contains (QQ1), trust region subproblem (TRS) and ellipsoid regularized total least squares p roblem as special cases. It is known that there is a necessary and sufficient optimality condition for the global minimizer of (QQ2). In this paper, we first show that any local minimizer of (QQ1) is globally optimal. Unlike its special case (TRS) with at most one local non-global minimizer, (QQ2) may have infinitely many local non-global minimizers. At any local non-global minimizer of (QQ2), both linearly independent constraint qualification and strict complementary condition hold, and the Hessian of the Lagrangian has exactly one negative eigenvalue. As a main contribution, we prove that the standard second-order sufficient optimality condition for any strict local non-global minimizer of (QQ2) remains necessary. Applications and the impossibility of further extension are discussed.
The local nonglobal minimizer of trust-region subproblem, if it exists, is shown to have the second smallest objective function value among all KKT points. This new property is extended to $p$-regularized subproblem. As a corollary, we show for the f irst time that finding the local nonglobal minimizer of Nesterov-Polyak subproblem corresponds to a generalized eigenvalue problem.
Aiming at convex optimization under structural constraints, this work introduces and analyzes a variant of the Frank Wolfe (FW) algorithm termed ExtraFW. The distinct feature of ExtraFW is the pair of gradients leveraged per iteration, thanks to whic h the decision variable is updated in a prediction-correction (PC) format. Relying on no problem dependent parameters in the step sizes, the convergence rate of ExtraFW for general convex problems is shown to be ${cal O}(frac{1}{k})$, which is optimal in the sense of matching the lower bound on the number of solved FW subproblems. However, the merit of ExtraFW is its faster rate ${cal O}big(frac{1}{k^2} big)$ on a class of machine learning problems. Compared with other parameter-free FW variants that have faster rates on the same problems, ExtraFW has improved rates and fine-grained analysis thanks to its PC update. Numerical tests on binary classification with different sparsity-promoting constraints demonstrate that the empirical performance of ExtraFW is significantly better than FW, and even faster than Nesterovs accelerated gradient on certain datasets. For matrix completion, ExtraFW enjoys smaller optimality gap, and lower rank than FW.
We prove the $C^{1}$ regularity for a class of abnormal length-minimizers in rank $2$ sub-Riemannian structures. As a consequence of our result, all length-minimizers for rank $2$ sub-Riemannian structures of step up to $4$ are of class $C^{1}$.

This paper proposes a new variant of Frank-Wolfe (FW), called $k$FW. Standard FW suffers from slow convergence: iterates often zig-zag as update directions oscillate around extreme points of the constraint set. The new variant, $k$FW, overcomes this problem by using two stronger subproblem oracles in each iteration. The first is a $k$ linear optimization oracle ($k$LOO) that computes the $k$ best update directions (rather than just one). The second is a $k$ direction search ($k$DS) that minimizes the objective over a constraint set represented by the $k$ best update directions and the previous iterate. When the problem solution admits a sparse representation, both oracles are easy to compute, and $k$FW converges quickly for smooth convex objectives and several interesting constraint sets: $k$FW achieves finite $frac{4L_f^3D^4}{gammadelta^2}$ convergence on polytopes and group norm balls, and linear convergence on spectrahedra and nuclear norm balls. Numerical experiments validate the effectiveness of $k$FW and demonstrate an order-of-magnitude speedup over existing approaches.
