Riemannian Optimization and Its Applications

This brief describes the basics of Riemannian optimization—optimization on Riemannian manifolds—introduces algorithms for Riemannian optimization problems, discusses the theoretical properties of these algorithms, and suggests possible applications of Riemannian optimization to problems in other fields.

To provide the reader with a smooth introduction to Riemannian optimization, brief reviews of mathematical optimization in Euclidean spaces and Riemannian geometry are included. Riemannian op...
