Course: control and dynamical system tools for optimisationA series of 3 seminars at the M2/PhD level (but also good for researchers working in related fields) on one of the latest trends in optimisation! Sponsored by the ANR and hosted at ENSTA. IntroductionWe have seen a recent interest in using control tools to understand and design optimisation algorithms. The celebrated Lessard et al. paper framing optimisation algorithm design as a control problem is an example. In this course, we introduce the needed control tools and show how they can be used to interpret optimisation algorithms and their acceleration as the control of Lur'e systems. This way of approaching the problem gives us insights and more flexibility.SpeakerProf. Ivano Notarnicola, University of Bologna.
