Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Nonlinear and convex analysis is a rapidly growing area of mathematics, with numerous applications in optimization, control theory, machine (deep) learning, economics, engineering, management and other disciplines. In recent years, with the tool of nonlinear analysis, various reformulations for optimization problems and techniques in analyzing the convergence of algorithms have found new directions. This issue is devoted to the publication of original articles of current interest in every theoretical, computational and applicational aspect of nonlinear analysis, variational analysis, convex analysis, multivalued analysis, non-smooth analysis, fixed point theory and optimization theory, as well as their applications to science, engineering, economics, management, healthcare and other disciplines.

The purpose of this Special Issue is to pay tribute to the significant contributions and recent advances in theories, methods, and applications, including, but not limited to, the following fields:

  • Nonlinear, convex, multivalued, variational and nonsmooth analysis;
  • Fixed point, coincidence point and best proximity point theory;
  • Optimization and optimal control theory;
  • Algorithms and numerical analysis for nonlinear problems;
  • Nonlinear and variational methods for ODEs and PDEs;
  • Inverse, ill-posed and perturbed problems;
  • Game theory and dynamical systems;
  • Data mining, machine and deep learning;
  • Applications in engineering, economic, management, medicine and healthcare.

This paper is concerned with the radius of robust global error bounds for an uncertain piecewise linear inequality system where the uncertain data are assumed to be in polytope uncertain sets. We first present a dual characterization for robust global error bounds of this uncertain piecewise linear inequality system. Then, we establish upper and lower bounds for the radius of robust global error bounds of the system of uncertain piecewise linear inequalities in terms of the Minkowski function generalized by the polytope uncertain sets. Moreover, we also investigate robust global error bounds for this uncertain piecewise linear inequality system when the uncertain polytope sets are symmetric sets. Full article

The nonconvex and nonsmooth optimization problem has been attracting increasing attention in recent years in image processing and machine learning research. The algorithm-based reweighted step has been widely used in many applications. In this paper, we propose a new, extended version of the iterative convex majorization–minimization method (ICMM) for solving a nonconvex and nonsmooth minimization problem, which involves famous iterative reweighted methods. To prove the convergence of the proposed algorithm, we adopt the general unified framework based on the Kurdyka–Łojasiewicz inequality. Numerical experiments validate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm compared to the existing methods. Full article

The aim of this paper is to propose a new iterative algorithm to approximate the solution for a variational inequality problem in real Hilbert spaces. A strong convergence result for the above problem is established under certain mild conditions. Our proposed method requires the computation of only one projection onto the feasible set in each iteration. Some numerical examples are presented to support that our proposed method performs better than some known comparable methods for solving variational inequality problems. Full article

In this paper, we survey the split problem of fixed points of two pseudocontractive operators and variational inequalities of two pseudomonotone operators in Hilbert spaces. We present a Tseng-type iterative algorithm for solving the split problem by using self-adaptive techniques. Under certain assumptions, we show that the proposed algorithm converges weakly to a solution of the split problem. An application is included. Full article
