We demonstrate that difficult non-convex non-smooth optimization problems, such as Nash equilibrium problems and anisotropic as well as isotropic Potts segmentation model, can be written in terms of generalized conjugates of convex functionals.

The primal--dual hybrid gradient method (PDHGM, also known as the Chambolle--Pock method) has proved very successful for convex optimization problems involving linear operators arising in image processing and inverse problems.

Optimal control problems involving hybrid binary-continuous control costs are challenging due to their lack of convexity and weak lower semicontinuity.

RF pulse design via optimal control is typically based on gradient and quasi-Newton approaches and therefore suffers from slow convergence.

A convex penalty for promoting switching controls for partial differential equations is introduced; such controls consist of an arbitrary number of components of which at most one should be simultaneously active.
