We analyze the local convergence of proximal splitting algorithms to solve optimization
problems that are convex besides a rank constraint. For this, we show conditions under
which the proximal operator of a function involving the rank constraint is locally identical to
the proximal operator of its convex envelope, hence implying local convergence. The
conditions imply that the non-convex algorithms locally converge to a solution whenever a
convex relaxation involving the convex envelope can be expected to solve the non-convex …
