Why is it important?

This paper hints that state-of-the-art iteration complexities of algorithms that solve nonconvex optimization problems can be further improved.

Perspectives

The refined argument upon which iteration complexities of known algorithms that solves nonconvex optimization problems is improved is based on a simple fact on convergence of sequences.
