We consider a primal-dual potential reduction algorithm for nonlinear convex optimization problems over symmetric cones. The same complexity estimates as in the case of linear objective function are obtained provided a certain nonlinear system of equations can be solved with a given accuracy. This generalizes the result of K. Kortanek, F. Potra and Y.Ye. We … Read more
We propose a simple {\em projection and algorithm} to solve the feasibility problem \[ \text{ find } x \in L \cap \Omega, \] where $L$ and $\Omega$ are respectively a linear subspace and the interior of a symmetric cone in a finite-dimensional vector space $V$. This projection and rescaling algorithm is inspired by previous work … Read more
The primal-dual Dikin-type affine scaling method was originally proposed for linear optimization and then extended to semidefinite optimization. Here, the method is generalized to symmetric conic optimization using the notion of Euclidean Jordan algebras. The method starts with an interior feasible but not necessarily centered primal-dual solution, and it features both centering and reducing the … Read more
This work is devoted to the study of a proximal decomposition algorithm for solving convex symmetric cone optimization with separable structures. The algorithm considered is based on the decomposition method proposed by Chen and Teboulle (1994), and the proximal generalized distance defined by Auslender and Teboulle (2006). Under suitable assumptions, first a class of proximal … Read more
The low-rank solutions of continuous and discrete Lyapunov equations are of great importance but generally difficult to achieve in control system analysis and design. Fortunately, Mesbahi and Papavassilopoulos [On the rank minimization problems over a positive semidefinite linear matrix inequality, IEEE Trans. Auto. Control, Vol. 42, No. 2 (1997), 239-243] showed that with the semidefinite … Read more
A real square matrix Q is a bilinear complementarity relation on a proper cone K in R^n if x in K, s in K^* with x perpendicular to s implies x^{T}Qs=0, where K^* is the dual of K. The bilinearity rank of K is the dimension of the space of all bilinear complementarity relations on … Read more
This paper is devoted to the study of the {symmetric cone linear complementarity problem} (SCLCP). In this context, our aim is to characterize the class Q_b in terms of larger classes, such as Q and R_0. For this, we introduce the class F and García’s transformations. We studied them for concrete particular instances (such as … Read more
This paper is a continuation of the paper Kakihara, Ohara and Tsuchiya by the authors where they demonstrated that the number of iterations of Mizuno-Todd-Ye predictor-corrector primal-dual interior-point methods for SDP and more generally symmetric cone programs is (asymptotically) expressed with an integral over the central trajectory called “curvature integral.” It was shown that the … Read more
In this paper, we study iteration complexities of Mizuno-Todd-Ye predictor-corrector (MTY-PC) algorithms in SDP and symmetric cone programs by way of curvature integrals. The curvature integral is defined along the central path, reflecting the geometric structure of the central path. The idea to exploit the curvature of the central path for the analysis of iteration … Read more
We study the uniform nonsingularity property recently proposed by the authors and present its applications to nonlinear complementarity problems over a symmetric cone. In particular, by addressing theoretical issues such as the existence of Newton directions, the boundedness of iterates and the nonsingularity of B-subdifferentials, we show that the non-interior continuation method proposed by Xin … Read more
