Researchers have developed a novel approach to analyze Bregman ADMM for nonconvex and non-Lipschitz optimization problems. This method replaces the standard Lipschitz gradient assumption with a two-sided relative smoothness condition, which involves a Hessian comparison relative to a Bregman kernel. The analysis shows that under this condition, iterates converge to a strict saddle with high probability, leading to almost-sure second-order stationarity of limiting KKT points. The work extends to distributed optimization using a multi-block star consensus formulation and includes numerical experiments on matrix and tensor factorization. AI
