Report Content:
We approach the minimization of a continuously differentiable convex function under linear equality constraints by a second-order dynamical system with asymptotically vanishing damping term. The system is formulated in terms of the augmented Lagrangian associated to the minimization problem. We show fast convergence of the primal-dual gap, the feasibility measure, and the objective function value along the generated trajectories. In case the objective function has Lipschitz continuous gradient, we show that the primal-dual trajectory asymptotically weakly converges to a primal-dual optimal solution of the underlying minimization problem. The proposed inertial algorithm results from the discretization of the second-order primal-dual dynamical system.
