3 Proximal point algorithm in Hadamard spaces Why? Well... it is used in: Phylogenetics: computing medians and means of phylogenetic trees. diffusion tensor imaging: the space P (n, R) of symmetric positive definite matrices n n with real entries is a Hadamard space if it is equipped with the Riemannian metric X, Y A := Tr ( A 1 XA 1 Y ), X, Y T A (P (n, R)), for every A P (n, R). Computational biology: shape analyses of tree-like structures:

5 Definition of Hadamard space Let (H, d) be a complete metric space where: 1 any two points x 0 and x 1 are connected by a geodesic x: [0, 1] H: t x t, 2 and, d (y, x t ) 2 (1 t)d (y, x 0 ) 2 + td (y, x 1 ) 2 t(1 t)d (x 0, x 1 ) 2, for every y H. Then (H, d) is called a Hadamard space. For today: assume that local compactness.

10 Terminology remark CAT(κ) spaces, for κ R, were introduced in 1987 by Michail Gromov C = Cartan A = Alexandrov T = Toponogov We are particularly interested in CAT(0) spaces.

11 Examples of Hadamard spaces 1 Hilbert spaces, the Hilbert ball 2 complete simply connected Riemannian manifolds with Sec 0 3 R-trees: a metric space T is an R-tree if for x, y T there is a unique geodesic [x, y] if [x, y] [y, z] = {y}, then [x, z] = [x, y] [y, z] 4 Euclidean buildings 5 the BHV tree space (space of phylogenetic trees) 6 L 2 (M, H), where (M, µ) is a probability space: ( d 2 (u, v) := M ) 1 d (u(x), v(x)) 2 2 dµ(x), u, v L 2 (M, H)

12 Convexity in Hadamard spaces Let (H, d) be a Hadamard space. These spaces allow for a natural definition of convexity: Definition A set C H is convex if, given x, y C, we have [x, y] C. Definition A function f : H (, ] is convex if f γ is a convex function for each geodesic γ : [0, 1] H.

24 Proximal point algorithm Let f : H (, ] be convex lsc. Optimization problem: min f(x). x H Recall: no (sub)differential, no shooting (singularities). Implicit methods are appropriate. The PPA generates a sequence [ x i := J λi (x i 1 ) := arg min f(y) + 1 ] d(y, x i 1 ) 2, y H 2λ i where x 0 H is a given starting point and λ i > 0, for each i N.

26 Convergence of proximal point algorithm Theorem (M.B., 2011) Let f : H (, ] be a convex lsc function attaining its minimum. Given x 0 H and (λ i ) such that 1 λ i =, the PPA sequence (x i ) converges to a minimizer of f. (Resolvents are firmly nonexpansive - cheap version for λ i = λ.) Disadvantage: The resolvents x i := J λi (x i 1 ) := arg min y H are often difficult to compute. [ f(y) + 1 ] d(y, x i 1 ) 2, 2λ i

28 Splitting proximal point algorithm Let f 1,..., f N be convex lsc and consider N f(x) := f n (x), x H. n=1 Example (Median and mean) f n := d (, a n ), f n := d (, a n ) 2. Key idea: apply resolvents J n λ s of f n s in a cyclic or random order.

31 Splitting proximal point algorithm Let x 0 H be a starting point. For each k N 0 we apply resolvents in cyclic order: x kn+1 := J 1 λ k (x kn ), x kn+2 := J 2 λ k (x kn+1 ),. x kn+n := J N λ k (x kn+n 1 ), or in random order: x i+1 := J r i λ i (x i ), where (r i ) are random variables with values in {1,..., N}.

32 Convergence of splitting proximal point algorithm Theorem (Cyclic order version + Random order version) Assume that f n are Lipschitz (or locally Lipschitz and the minimizing sequence is bounded). Then 1 the cyclic PPA sequence converges to a minimizer of f 2 the random PPA sequence converges to a minimizer of f almost surely. Assumptions are satisfied for f(x) := where p [1, ). N w n d (x, a n ) p, x H, n=1

34 Splitting proximal point algorithm (for mean) Hence instead of computing (the usual PPA) x i+1 := arg min z H [ N ] d (z, a n ) d (z, x i ) 2, 2λ i n=1 we are to minimize the function x i+1 := arg min z H [ d (z, a n ) λ i d (z, x i ) 2 where a n are chosen in a cyclic or random order. This is one-dimensional problem! = x i+1 is a convex combination of a n and x i. ],
