Optimality of affine policies in multi-stage robust optimization
In this paper, we show the optimality of a certain class of disturbance-affine control policies in the context of one-dimensional, constrained, multi-stage robust optimization. Ou...

A Redistributed Proximal Bundle Method for Nonconvex Optimization
Proximal bundle methods have been shown to be highly successful optimization methods for unconstrained convex problems with discontinuous first derivatives. This naturally leads ...
