First order solver for smooth conic dual problems driver routine

Parameters
Returns

Solution of the optimization problem

Return type

FomState

The function uses first order conic solver algorithms to solve an optimization problem of the form:

(1)\[\underset{x}{\text{minimize}} \left [ f(x) + \frac{\mu}{2} \| x - x_0 \|_2^2 + h \left (\AAA(x) + b \right) \right ]\]
  • Both \(f, h\) must be convex and prox-capable, although neither needs to be smooth.

When \(h\) is an indicator function for a convex cone \(\KKK\), this is equivalent to:

(2)\[\begin{split}\begin{split}\begin{aligned} & \underset{x}{\text{minimize}} & & f(x) + \frac{\mu}{2} \| x - x_0 \|_2^2\\ & \text{subject to} & & \AAA(x) + b \in \KKK \end{aligned}\end{split}\end{split}\]

which is the smooth conic dual (SCD) model discussed in [BCandesG11].
