In this work, we show that for linearly constrained optimization problems the primal-dual hybrid gradient algorithm, analyzed by Chambolle and Pock [3], can be written as an entirely primal algorithm. This allows us to prove convergence of the iterates even in the degenerate cases when the linear system is inconsistent or when the strong duality does not hold. We also obtain new convergence rates which seem to improve existing ones in the literature. For a decentralized distributed optimization we show that the new scheme is much more efficient than the original one.

  1. CB$^2$O: Consensus-Based Bi-Level Optimization

    math.OC 2024-11 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    CB2O is a consensus-based optimization method with a quantile selection step that provably converges to the upper-level minimizer among the lower-level minimizers in the mean-field limit.

  2. Two Adaptive Accelerated Golden Ratio Primal--Dual Algorithms With an Application to Poisson Imaging Problem

    math.OC 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    An adaptive golden-ratio primal-dual algorithm is shown to need no step-size cap or linesearch, with O(1/N) rates, plus two strongly-convex-focused variants with O(1/N²) rates.
