TL;DR: In this paper, the proximal point algorithm in exact form is investigated in a more general form where the requirement for exact minimization at each iteration is weakened, and the subdifferential $\partial f$ is replaced by an arbitrary maximal monotone operator T.
Abstract: For the problem of minimizing a lower semicontinuous proper convex function f on a Hilbert space, the proximal point algorithm in exact form generates a sequence $\{ z^k \} $ by taking $z^{k + 1} $ to be the minimizes of $f(z) + ({1 / {2c_k }})\| {z - z^k } \|^2 $, where $c_k > 0$. This algorithm is of interest for several reasons, but especially because of its role in certain computational methods based on duality, such as the Hestenes-Powell method of multipliers in nonlinear programming. It is investigated here in a more general form where the requirement for exact minimization at each iteration is weakened, and the subdifferential $\partial f$ is replaced by an arbitrary maximal monotone operator T. Convergence is established under several criteria amenable to implementation. The rate of convergence is shown to be “typically” linear with an arbitrarily good modulus if $c_k $ stays large enough, in fact superlinear if $c_k \to \infty $. The case of $T = \partial f$ is treated in extra detail. Applicati...

TL;DR: Graph implementations as mentioned in this paper is a generic method for representing a convex function via its epigraph, described in a disciplined convex programming framework, which allows a very wide variety of smooth and nonsmooth convex programs to be easily specified and efficiently solved.
Abstract: We describe graph implementations, a generic method for representing a convex function via its epigraph, described in a disciplined convex programming framework. This simple and natural idea allows a very wide variety of smooth and nonsmooth convex programs to be easily specified and efficiently solved, using interiorpoint methods for smooth or cone convex programs.

TL;DR: This method can be regarded as a generalization of the methods discussed in [1–4] and applied to the approximate solution of problems in linear and convex programming.
Abstract: IN this paper we consider an iterative method of finding the common point of convex sets. This method can be regarded as a generalization of the methods discussed in [1–4]. Apart from problems which can be reduced to finding some point of the intersection of convex sets, the method considered can be applied to the approximate solution of problems in linear and convex programming.
