Many problems in nonlinear analysis and optimization, among them variational inequalities and minimization of convex functions, can be reduced to finding zeros (namely, roots) of set-valued operators. Hence numerous algorithms have been devised in order to achieve this task. A lot of these algorithms are inexact in the sense that they allow perturbations to appear during the iterative process, and hence they enable one to better deal with noise and computational errors, as well as superiorization. For many years a certain fundamental question has remained open regarding many of these known inexact algorithmic schemes in various finite and infinite dimensional settings, namely whether there exist sequences satisfying these inexact schemes when errors appear. We provide a positive answer to this question. Our results also show that various theorems discussing the convergence of these inexact schemes have a genuine merit beyond the exact case. As a by-product we solve the standard and the strongly implicit inexact resolvent inclusion problems, introduce a promising class of functions (fully Legendre functions), establish continuous dependence (stability) properties of the solution of the inexact resolvent inclusion problem and continuity properties of the protoresolvent, and generalize the notion of strong monotonicity.

In this paper, we propose a new method based on the Sliding Algorithm from Lan(2016, 2019) for the convex composite optimization problem that includes two terms: smooth one and non-smooth one. Our method uses the stochastic noised zeroth-order oracle for the non-smooth part and the first-order oracle for the smooth part. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first method in the literature that uses such a mixed oracle for the composite optimization. We prove the convergence rate for the new method that matches the corresponding rate for the first-order method up to a factor proportional to the dimension of the space or, in some cases, its squared logarithm. We apply this method for the decentralized distributed optimization and derive upper bounds for the number of communication rounds for this method that matches known lower bounds. Moreover, our bound for the number of zeroth-order oracle calls per node matches the similar state-of-the-art bound for the first-order decentralized distributed optimization up to to the factor proportional to the dimension of the space or, in some cases, even its squared logarithm.
In this paper, we are interested in the existence of Pareto solutions to vector polynomial optimization problems over a basic closed semi-algebraic set. By invoking some powerful tools from real semi-algebraic geometry, we first introduce the concept called {it tangency varieties}; then we establish connections of the Palais--Smale condition, Cerami condition, {it M}-tameness, and properness related to the considered problem, in which the condition of regularity at infinity plays an essential role in deriving these connections. According to the obtained connections, we provide some sufficient conditions for existence of Pareto solutions to the problem in consideration, and we also give some examples to illustrate our main findings.
Switched systems in which the manipulated control action is the time-depending switching signal describe many engineering problems, mainly related to biomedical applications. In such a context, to control the system means to select an autonomous syst em - at each time step - among a given finite family. Even when this selection can be done by solving a Dynamic Programming (DP) problem, such a solution is often difficult to apply, and state/control constraints cannot be explicitly considered. In this work a new set-based Model Predictive Control (MPC) strategy is proposed to handle switched systems in a tractable form. The optimization problem at the core of the MPC formulation consists in an easy-to-solve mixed-integer optimization problem, whose solution is applied in a receding horizon way. Two biomedical applications are simulated to test the controller: (i) the drug schedule to attenuate the effect of viral mutation and drugs resistance on the viral load, and (ii) the drug schedule for Triple Negative breast cancer treatment. The numerical results suggest that the proposed strategy outperform the schedule for available treatments.
We consider optimization problems on Riemannian manifolds with equality and inequality constraints, which we call Riemannian nonlinear optimization (RNLO) problems. Although they have numerous applications, the existing studies on them are limited es pecially in terms of algorithms. In this paper, we propose Riemannian sequential quadratic optimization (RSQO) that uses a line-search technique with an ell_1 penalty function as an extension of the standard SQO algorithm for constrained nonlinear optimization problems in Euclidean spaces to Riemannian manifolds. We prove its global convergence to a Karush-Kuhn-Tucker point of the RNLO problem by means of parallel transport and the exponential mapping. Furthermore, we establish its local quadratic convergence by analyzing the relationship between sequences generated by RSQO and the Riemannian Newton method. Ours is the first algorithm that has both global and local convergence properties for constrained nonlinear optimization on Riemannian manifolds. Empirical results show that RSQO finds solutions more stably and with higher accuracy compared with the existing Riemannian penalty and augmented Lagrangian methods.
In this paper the first and second domain variation for functionals related to elliptic boundary and eigenvalue problems with Robin boundary conditions is computed. Minimality and maximality properties of the ball among nearly circular domains of giv en volume are derived. The discussion leads to the investigation of the eigenvalues of a Steklov eigenvalue problem. As a byproduct a general characterization of the optimal shapes is obtained.
