A mountain pass algorithm with projector

In this paper, we present an enhanced version of the minimax algorithm of Chen, Ni, and Zhou that offers the additional guarantee that the solution found is a fix-point of a projector on a cone. Positivity, negativity, and monotonicity can be expressed in this way. The convergence of the algorithm is proved by means of a “computational deformation lemma” instead of the usual deformation lemma used in the calculus of variations.
