Local convergence of alternating low-rank optimization methods with overrelaxation (2111.14758v2)

Abstract: The local convergence of alternating optimization methods with overrelaxation for low-rank matrix and tensor problems is established. The analysis is based on the linearization of the method which takes the form of an SOR iteration for a positive semidefinite Hessian and can be studied in the corresponding quotient geometry of equivalent low-rank representations. In the matrix case, the optimal relaxation parameter for accelerating the local convergence can be determined from the convergence rate of the standard method. This result relies on a version of Young's SOR theorem for positive semidefinite $2 \times 2$ block systems.
