Several optimisation algorithms, including ADMM and Douglas-Rachford algorithm (DR), can be cast as the fixed-point iteration (FPI) of an averaged operator. However, these algorithms' convergence is generally slow (within sublinear regime).

We show that the linear convergence of the FPI of averaged operators is equivalent to an error-bound condition on the operator. Our work captures several existing results on the linear convergence of the ADMM and DR under weaker assumptions. As a byproduct of our method, we bound the rate of convergence of the DR applied to linear and quadratic optimisation problems.
