We study the minimization of an M-convex function introduced by Murota. It is shown that any vector in the domain can be easily separated from a minimizer of the function. Based on this property, we develop a polynomial time algorithm.
For convex minimization we introduce an algorithm based on VU-space decomposition. The method uses a bundle subroutine to generate a sequence of approximate proximal points. When a primal-dual track leading to a solution and zero subgradient pair exists, these points approximate the primal track poi
