Basis pursuit is the equality-constrained minimization problem
In ADMM form, basis pursuit can be written as
The ADMM algorithm is then
The x-update, which involves solving a linearly-constrained minimum Euclidean norm problem, can be written explicitly as
4.4.3 Soft Thresholding
where the soft thresholding operator S is defined as
the comments on efficient computation from §4.2 apply
We can interpret ADMM for basis pursuit as reducing the solution of a least norm problem to solving a sequence of minimum Euclidean norm problem
