We prove that it is possible for nonconvex low-rank matrix recovery to contain no spurious local minima when the rank of the unknown ground truth $r^{star}<r$ is strictly less than the search rank $r$, and yet for the claim to be false when $r^{star}=r$. Under the restricted isometry property (RIP), we prove, for the general overparameterized regime with $r^{star}le r$, that an RIP constant of $delta<1/(1+sqrt{r^{star}/r})$ is sufficient for the inexistence of spurious local minima, and that $delta<1/(1+1/sqrt{r-r^{star}+1})$ is necessary due to existence of counterexamples. Without an explicit control over $r^{star}le r$, an RIP constant of $delta<1/2$ is both necessary and sufficient for the exact recovery of a rank-$r$ ground truth. But if the ground truth is known a priori to have $r^{star}=1$, then the sharp RIP threshold for exact recovery is improved to $delta<1/(1+1/sqrt{r})$.

We study the convergence of a variant of distributed gradient descent (DGD) on a distributed low-rank matrix approximation problem wherein some optimization variables are used for consensus (as in classical DGD) and some optimization variables appear
only locally at a single node in the network. We term the resulting algorithm DGD+LOCAL. Using algorithmic connections to gradient descent and geometric connections to the well-behaved landscape of the centralized low-rank matrix approximation problem, we identify sufficient conditions where DGD+LOCAL is guaranteed to converge with exact consensus to a global minimizer of the original centralized problem. For the distributed low-rank matrix approximation problem, these guarantees are stronger---in terms of consensus and optimality---than what appear in the literature for classical DGD and more general problems.
We study the asymmetric low-rank factorization problem: [min_{mathbf{U} in mathbb{R}^{m times d}, mathbf{V} in mathbb{R}^{n times d}} frac{1}{2}|mathbf{U}mathbf{V}^top -mathbf{Sigma}|_F^2] where $mathbf{Sigma}$ is a given matrix of size $m times n$ a
nd rank $d$. This is a canonical problem that admits two difficulties in optimization: 1) non-convexity and 2) non-smoothness (due to unbalancedness of $mathbf{U}$ and $mathbf{V}$). This is also a prototype for more complex problems such as asymmetric matrix sensing and matrix completion. Despite being non-convex and non-smooth, it has been observed empirically that the randomly initialized gradient descent algorithm can solve this problem in polynomial time. Existing theories to explain this phenomenon all require artificial modifications of the algorithm, such as adding noise in each iteration and adding a balancing regularizer to balance the $mathbf{U}$ and $mathbf{V}$. This paper presents the first proof that shows randomly initialized gradient descent converges to a global minimum of the asymmetric low-rank factorization problem with a polynomial rate. For the proof, we develop 1) a new symmetrization technique to capture the magnitudes of the symmetry and asymmetry, and 2) a quantitative perturbation analysis to approximate matrix derivatives. We believe both are useful for other related non-convex problems.
Low rank matrix recovery problems, including matrix completion and matrix sensing, appear in a broad range of applications. In this work we present GNMR -- an extremely simple iterative algorithm for low rank matrix recovery, based on a Gauss-Newton
linearization. On the theoretical front, we derive recovery guarantees for GNMR in both the matrix sensing and matrix completion settings. A key property of GNMR is that it implicitly keeps the factor matrices approximately balanced throughout its iterations. On the empirical front, we show that for matrix completion with uniform sampling, GNMR performs better than several popular methods, especially when given very few observations close to the information limit.
This paper addresses the problem of low-rank distance matrix completion. This problem amounts to recover the missing entries of a distance matrix when the dimension of the data embedding space is possibly unknown but small compared to the number of c
onsidered data points. The focus is on high-dimensional problems. We recast the considered problem into an optimization problem over the set of low-rank positive semidefinite matrices and propose two efficient algorithms for low-rank distance matrix completion. In addition, we propose a strategy to determine the dimension of the embedding space. The resulting algorithms scale to high-dimensional problems and monotonically converge to a global solution of the problem. Finally, numerical experiments illustrate the good performance of the proposed algorithms on benchmarks.
Low rank matrix recovery is the focus of many applications, but it is a NP-hard problem. A popular way to deal with this problem is to solve its convex relaxation, the nuclear norm regularized minimization problem (NRM), which includes LASSO as a spe
cial case. There are some regularization parameter selection results for LASSO in vector case, such as screening rules, which improve the efficiency of the algorithms. However, there are no corresponding parameter selection results for NRM in matrix case. In this paper, we build up a novel rule to choose the regularization parameter for NRM under the help of duality theory. This rule claims that the regularization parameter can be easily chosen by feasible points of NRM and its dual problem, when the rank of the desired solution is no more than a given constant. In particular, we apply this idea to NRM with least square and Huber functions, and establish the easily calculated formula of regularization parameters. Finally, we report numerical results on some signal shapes, which state that our proposed rule shrinks the interval of the regularization parameter efficiently.
