  ABSTRACT: In this paper, we investigate the convergence of the generalized Bregman alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) for solving nonconvex separable problems with linear constraints. This algorithm relaxes the requirement of global Lipschitz continuity of differentiable functions that is often seen in many researches, and it incorporates the acceleration technique of the proximal point algorithm (PPA). As a result, the scope of application of the algorithm is broadened and its performance is enhanced. Under the assumption that the augmented Lagrangian function satisfies the Kurdyka-Lojasiewicz inequality, we demonstrate that the iterative sequence generated by the algorithm converges to a critical point of its augmented Lagrangian function when the penalty parameter in the augmented Lagrangian function is sufficiently large. Finally, we analyze the convergence rate of the algorithm.
