Naihua Xiu The low-rank matrix recovery (LMR) is a rank minimization problem subject to linear equality constraints, and it arises in many fields such as signal and image processing, statistics, computer vision, system identification and control. This class of optimization problems is $NP$-hard and a popular approach replaces the rank function with the nuclear norm of the … Read more
The low-rank matrix recovery (LMR) arises in many fields such as signal and image processing, statistics, computer vision, system identification and control, and it is NP-hard. It is known that under some restricted isometry property (RIP) conditions we can obtain the exact low-rank matrix solution by solving its convex relaxation, the nuclear norm minimization. In … Read more
In this paper, we establish new bounds for restricted isometry constants (RIC) in low-rank matrix recovery. Let $\A$ be a linear transformation from $\R^{m \times n}$ into $\R^p$, and $r$ the rank of recovered matrix $X\in \R^{m \times n}$. Our main result is that if the condition on RIC satisfies $\delta_{2r+k}+2(\frac{r}{k})^{1/2}\delta_{\max\{r+\frac{3}{2}k,2k\}}
In this paper, we analyze and characterize the cone of nonsymmetric positive semidefinite matrices (NS-psd). Firstly, we study basic properties of the geometry of the NS-psd cone and show that it is a hyperbolic but not homogeneous cone. Secondly, we prove that the NS-psd cone is a maximal convex subcone of $P_0$-matrix cone which is … Read more
We consider existence and uniqueness properties of a solution to homogeneous cone complementarity problem (HCCP). Employing the $T$-algebraic characterization of homogeneous cones, we generalize the $P, P_0, R_0$ properties for a nonlinear function associated with the standard nonlinear complementarity problem to the setting of HCCP. We prove that if a continuous function has either the … Read more
Recently, Gowda et al. [10] established the Fischer-Burmeister (FB) complementarity function (C-function) on Euclidean Jordan algebras. In this paper, we prove that FB C-function as well as the derivatives of the squared norm of FB C-function are Lipschitz continuous.

This paper focuses on monotone L\”{o}wner operators in Euclidean Jordan algebras and their applications to the symmetric cone complementarity problem (SCCP). We prove necessary and sufficient conditions for locally Lipschitz L\”{o}wner operators to be monotone, strictly monotone and strongly monotone. We also study the relationship between monotonicity and operator-monotonicity of L\”{o}wner operators. As a by-product … Read more
