Abstract: This paper studies the fundamental properties of the high-order forward-backward splitting mapping (HiFBS) and its associated forward-backward envelope (HiFBE) through the lens of high-order regularization for nonconvex composite functions. Specifically, we (i) establish the boundedness and uniform boundedness of HiFBS, along with the H\"older and Lipschitz continuity of HiFBE; (ii) derive an explicit form for the subdifferentials of HiFBE; and (iii) investigate necessary and sufficient conditions for the differentiability and weak smoothness of HiFBE under suitable assumptions. By leveraging the prox-regularity of $g$ and the concept of $p$-calmness, we further demonstrate the local single-valuedness and continuity of HiFBS, which in turn guarantee the differentiability of HiFBE in neighborhoods of calm points. This paves the way for the development of gradient-based algorithms tailored to nonconvex composite optimization problems.

Y también un 8 de enero, pero de 2016, en su cumpleaños N°69, Bowie lanzó su último disco de estudio, Blackstar, dos días antes de su fallecimiento.
Buen momento para escucharlo una vez mšs.
