We consider finite horizon reach-avoid problems for discrete time stochastic systems. Our goal is to construct upper bound functions for the reach-avoid probability by means of tractable convex optimization problems. We achieve this by restricting attentio ...
We introduce an analysis framework for constructing optimal first-order primal-dual methods for the prototypical constrained convex optimization template. While this class of methods offers scalability advantages in obtaining numerical solutions, they have ...
We consider the capacitated -center problem. In this problem we are given a finite set of locations in a metric space and each location has an associated non-negative integer capacity. The goal is to choose (open) locations (called centers) and assign each ...
The vertex cover problem is one of the most important and intensively studied combinatorial optimization problems. Khot and Regevproved that the problem is NP-hard to approximate within a factor2 - ∈, assuming the Unique Games Conjecture (UGC). This is tig ...
In this article, we disprove a conjecture of Goemans and Linial; namely, that every negative type metric embeds into ℓ1 with constant distortion. We show that for an arbitrarily small constant δ > 0, for all large enough n, there is an n-point negative ...
The standard LP relaxation of the asymmetric traveling salesman problem has been conjectured to have a constant integrality gap in the metric case. We prove this conjecture when restricted to shortest path metrics of node-weighted digraphs. Our arguments a ...
We present a primal-dual algorithmic framework to obtain approximate solutions to a prototypical constrained convex optimization problem, and rigorously characterize how common structural assumptions affect the numerical efficiency. Our main analysis techn ...
We consider a Gaussian diamond network where a source communicates with the destination through n non-interfering half-duplex relays. Using simple approximations to the capacity of the network, we show that simple relaying strategies involving two relays a ...
FETI-DP is a dual iterative, nonoverlapping domain decomposition method. By a Schur complement procedure, the solution of a boundary value problem is reduced to solving a symmetric and positive definite dual problem in which the variables are directly rela ...
We formulate a new variant of the index coding problem, where instead of demanding a specific message, clients are pliable, and are interested in receiving any t messages that they do not have. We term this problem pliable index coding or PICOD(t). We prov ...
