In this paper we extend and improve the classical affine scaling interior-point Newton method for solving nonlinear optimization subject to linear inequality constraints in the absence of the strict complementarity assumption. Introducing a computationally efficient technique and employing an identification function for the definition of the new affine scaling matrix, we propose and analyze a new affine scaling interior-point Newton method which improves the Coleman and Li affine sealing matrix in [2] for solving the linear inequlity constrained optimization. Local superlinear and quadratical convergence of the proposed algorithm is established under the strong second order sufficiency condition without assuming strict complementarity of the solution.
This paper proposes an inexact Newton method via the Lanczos decomposed technique for solving the box-constrained nonlinear systems. An iterative direction is obtained by solving an affine scaling quadratic model with the Lanczos decomposed technique. By using the interior backtracking line search technique, an acceptable trial step length is found along this direction. The global convergence and the fast local convergence rate of the proposed algorithm are established under some reasonable conditions. Furthermore, the results of the numerical experiments show the effectiveness of the pro- posed algorithm.
Based on a differentiable merit function proposed by Taji, et al in “Mathematical Programming, 1993, 58： 369-383”, a projected gradient trust region method for the monotone variational inequality problem with convex constraints is presented. Theoretical analysis is given which proves that the proposed algorithm is globally convergent and has a local quadratic convergence rate under some reasonable conditions. The results of numerical experiments are reported to show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
