Proximal Point Algorithm On Riemannian Manifolds 论文

摘要

Abstract In this paper we consider the minimization problem with constraints. We will show that if the set of constraints is a Riemannian manifold of nonpositive sectional curvature, and the objective function is convex in this manifold, then the proximal point method in Euclidean space is naturally extended to solve that class of problems. We will prove that the sequence generated by our method is well defined and converge to a minimizer point. In particular we show how tools of Riemannian geometry, more specifically the convex analysis in Riemannian manifolds, can be used to solve nonconvex constrained problem in Euclidean, space.
