arXiv:2606. 28307v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We analyze Bregman ADMM for nonconvex linearly constrained problems under two-sided relative smoothness, a condition that replaces the standard Lipschitz gradient assumption with a Hessian comparison relative to a Bregman kernel.
arXiv:2607. 19553v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study online optimization for a broad class of structured non-convex non-smooth problems where each loss is a composition of a difference-of-convex function with a smooth mapping, and the feasible region is defined by constraint functions of the same kind.

arXiv:2406. 13041v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Lower-bound analyses for nonconvex strongly-concave minimax optimization problems have shown that stochastic first-order algorithms require at least $\mathcal{O}(\varepsilon^{-4})$ sample complexity to find an $\varepsilon$-stationary point.

We study online optimization for a broad class of structured non-convex non-smooth problems where each loss is a composition of a difference-of-convex function with a smooth mapping, and the feasible region is defined by constraint functions of the same kind. We propose a time-smoothed proximal linear algorithm and a local-regret measure based on a proximal residual mapping.
