Alternating Projections on Nontangential Manifolds

Author

Summary, in English

We consider sequences of points obtained by projecting a given point B=B (0) back and forth between two manifolds and , and give conditions guaranteeing that the sequence converges to a limit . Our motivation is the study of algorithms based on finding the limit of such sequences, which have proved useful in a number of areas. The intersection is typically a set with desirable properties but for which there is no efficient method for finding the closest point B (opt) in . Under appropriate conditions, we prove not only that the sequence of alternating projections converges, but that the limit point is fairly close to B (opt) , in a manner relative to the distance ayenB (0)-B (opt) ayen, thereby significantly improving earlier results in the field.
