    At each iteration of the Safeguarded Augmented Lagrangian algorithm Algencan, a bound-constrained subproblem consisting of the minimization of the Powell-Hestenes-Rockafellar augmented Lagrangian function is considered, for which a minimizer with tolerance tending to zero is sought. More precisely, a point that satisfies a subproblem first-order necessary optimality condition with tolerance tending to zero is required. … Read more

    In this paper, an inexact Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) has been proposed for solving the two-block separable convex optimization problem subject to linear equality constraints. The first resulting subproblem is solved inexactly under relative error criterion, while another subproblem called regularization problem is solved inexactly by introducing an indefinite proximal term. Meanwhile, the … Read more

    We consider the convergence behavior using the relaxed Peaceman-Rachford splitting method to solve the monotone inclusion problem $0 \in (A + B)(u)$, where $A, B: \Re^n \rightrightarrows \Re^n$ are maximal $\beta$-strongly monotone operators, $n \geq 1$ and $\beta > 0$. Under a technical assumption, convergence of iterates using the method on the problem is proved … Read more
