Two-Step Modulus-Based Synchronous Multisplitting Iteration Methods for Linear Complementarity Problems

To reduce the communication among processors and improve the computing time for solving linear complementarity problems, we present a two-step modulus-based synchronous multisplitting iteration method and the corresponding symmetric modulus-based multisplitting relaxation methods. The convergence theorems are established when the system matrix is an $H_+$-matrix, which improve the existing convergence theory. Numerical results show that the symmetric modulus-based multisplitting relaxation methods are effective in actual implementation.

Extended LQP Method for Monotone Nonlinear Complementarity Problems

To solve nonlinear complementarity problems (NCP), the logarithmic-quadratic proximal (LQP) method solves a system of nonlinear equations at each iteration. In this paper, the iterates generated by the original LQP method are extended by explicit formulas and thus an extended LQP method is presented. It is proved theoretically that the lower bound of the progress obtained by the extended LQP method is greater than that by the original LQP method. Preliminary numerical results are provided to verify the theoretical assertions and the effectiveness of both the original and the extended LQP method.

A Null Space Approach for Solving Nonlinear Complementarity Problems

In this work, null space techniques are employed to tackle nonlinear complementarity problems （NCPs）. NCP conditions are transform into a nonlinear programming problem, which is handled by null space algorithms, The NCP conditions are divided into two groups, Some equalities and inequalities in an NCP are treated as constraints, While other equalities and inequalities in an NCP are to be regarded as objective function. Two groups are all updated in every step. Null space approaches are extended to nonlinear complementarity problems. Two different solvers are employed for all NCP in an algorithm.

Modulus-Based GSTS Iteration Method for Linear Complementarity Problems

In this paper, a modulus-based generalized skew-Hermitian triangular splitting (MGSTS) iteration method is present for solving a class of linear complementarity problems with the system matrix either being an $H_+$-matrix with non-positive off-diagonal entries or a symmetric positive definite matrix. The convergence of the MGSTS iteration method is studied in detail. By choosing different parameters, a series of existing and new iterative methods are derived, including the modulus-based Jacobi (MJ) and the modulus-based Gauss-Seidel (MGS) iteration methods and so on. Experimental results are given to show the effectiveness and feasibility of the new method when it is employed for solving this class of linear complementarity problems.

A New Class of Semismooth Newton-Type Methods for Nonlinear Complementarity Problems

We introduce a new, one-parametric class of NCP-functions. This class subsumes the Fischer function and reduces to the minimum function in a limiting case of the parameter. This new class of NCP-functions is used in order to reformulate the nonlinear complementarity problem as a nonsmooth system of equations. We present a detailed investigation of the properties of the equation operator, of the corresponding merit function as well as of a suitable semismooth Newton-type method. Finally, numerical results are presented for this method being applied to a number of test problems.     

Predictor-Corrector Smoothing Newton Method,Based on a New Smoothing Function,for Solving the Nonlinear Complementarity Problem with a P 0 Function

By smoothing a perturbed minimum function, we propose in this paper a new smoothing function. The existence and continuity of a smooth path for solving the nonlinear complementarity problem (NCP) with a P ₀ function are discussed. We investigate the boundedness of the iteration sequence generated by noninterior continuation/smoothing methods under the assumption that the solution set of the NCP is nonempty and bounded. Based on the new smoothing function, we present a predictor-corrector smoothing Newton algorithm for solving the NCP with a P ₀ function, which is shown to be globally linearly and locally superlinearly convergent under suitable assumptions. Some preliminary computational results are reported.     

A Regularization Newton Method for Solving Nonlinear Complementarity Problems

In this paper we construct a regularization Newton method for solving the nonlinear complementarity problem (NCP(F )) and analyze its convergence properties under the assumption that F is a P ₀ -function. We prove that every accumulation point of the sequence of iterates is a solution of NCP(F ) and that the sequence of iterates is bounded if the solution set of NCP(F ) is nonempty and bounded. Moreover, if F is a monotone and Lipschitz continuous function, we prove that the sequence of iterates is bounded if and only if the solution set of NCP(F ) is nonempty by setting , where is a parameter. If NCP(F) has a locally unique solution and satisfies a nonsingularity condition, then the convergence rate is superlinear (quadratic) without strict complementarity conditions. At each step, we only solve a linear system of equations. Numerical results are provided and further applications to other problems are discussed. Accepted 25 March 1998

Properties of Restricted NCP Functions for Nonlinear Complementarity Problems

In this paper, we study restricted NCP functions which may be used to reformulate the nonlinear complementarity problem as a constrained minimization problem. In particular, we consider three classes of restricted NCP functions, two of them introduced by Solodov and the other proposed in this paper. We give conditions under which a minimization problem based on a restricted NCP function enjoys favorable properties, such as equivalence between a stationary point of the minimization problem and the nonlinear complementarity problem, strict complementarity at a solution of the minimization problem, and boundedness of the level sets of the objective function. We examine these properties for three restricted NCP functions and show that the merit function based on the restricted NCP function proposed in this paper enjoys favorable properties compared with those based on the other restricted NCP functions.
