contents This paper investigates a general class of problems in which a lower bounded smooth convex function incorporating $\ell_{0}$ and $\ell_{2,0}$ regularization is minimized over a box constraint. Although such problems arise frequently in practical applications, their inherent non-convexity poses significant challenges for solution methods. In particular, we focus on the proximal operator associated with these regularizations, which incorporates both group-sparsity and element-wise sparsity terms. Besides, we introduce the concepts of $τ$-stationary point and support optimal (SO) point then analyze their relationship with the minimizer of the considered problem. Based on the proximal operator, we propose a novel proximal iterative hard thresholding algorithm to solve the problem. Furthermore, we establish the global convergence and the computational complexity analysis of the proposed method. Finally, extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of our method.
