An efficient semismooth Newton-AMG-based inexact primal-dual algorithm for generalized transport problems

preprint2022arXivOpen access

Abstract

This work is concerned with the efficient optimization method for solving a large class of optimal mass transport problems. An inexact primal-dual algorithm is presented from the time discretization of a proper dynamical system, and by using the tool of Lyapunov function, the global (super-)linear convergence rate is established for function residual and feasibility violation. The proposed algorithm contains an inner problem that possesses strong semismoothness property and motivates the use of the semismooth Newton iteration. By exploring the hidden structure of the problem itself, the linear system arising from the Newton iteration is transferred equivalently into a graph Laplacian system, for which a robust algebraic multigrid method is proposed and also analyzed via the famous Xu--Zikatanov identity. Finally, numerical experiments are provided to validate the efficiency of our method.
