Abstract:We consider the problem of minimizing a differentiable function with locally Lipschitz continuous gradient on a stratified set and present a first-order algorithm designed to find a stationary point of that problem. Our assumptions on the stratified set are satisfied notably by the determinantal variety (i.e., matrices of bounded rank), its intersection with the cone of positive-semidefinite matrices, and the set of nonnegative sparse vectors. The iteration map of the proposed algorithm applies a step of proje… Show more
