Alternating direction method of multipliers for convex programming: a lift-and-permute scheme (2203.16271v1)

Abstract: A lift-and-permute scheme of alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) is proposed for linearly constrained convex programming. It contains not only the newly developed balanced augmented Lagrangian method and its dual-primal variation, but also the proximal ADMM and Douglas-Rachford splitting algorithm. It helps to propose accelerated algorithms with worst-case $O(1/k^2)$ convergence rates in the case that the objective function to be minimized is strongly convex.
