In this paper, we propose Distributed Mirror Descent (DMD) algorithm for constrained convex optimization problems on a (strongly-)connected multi-agent network. We assume that each agent has a private objective function and a constraint set. The proposed DMD algorithm employs a locally designed Bregman distance function at each agent, and thus can be viewed as a generalization of the well-known...

In this paper we propose a concavely regularized convex relaxation based graph matching algorithm. The graph matching problem is firstly formulated as a constrained convex quadratic program by relaxing the feasible set from the permutation matrices to doubly stochastic matrices. To gradually push the doubly stochastic matrix back to be a permutation one, an objective function is constructed by ...

We describe maximal nilpotent subsemigroups of a given nilpotency class in the semigroup Ωn of all n × n real matrices with nonnegative coefficients and the semigroup Dn of all doubly stochastic real matrices.
