| Abstract: | Isac and Németh [G. Isac and A. B. Németh, Projection methods, isotone projection cones and the complementarity problem, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 153 (1990), pp. 258–275] proved that solving a coincidence point equation (fixed point problem) in turn solves the corresponding implicit complementarity problem (nonlinear complementarity problem) and they exploited the isotonicity of the metric projection onto isotone projection cones to solve implicit complementarity problems (nonlinear complementarity problems) defined by these cones. In this article an iterative algorithm is studied in connection with an implicit complementarity problem. It is proved that if the sequence generated through the defined algorithm is convergent, then its limit is a solution of the coincidence point equation and thus solves the implicit complementarity problem. Sufficient conditions are given for this sequence to be convergent for implicit complementarity problems defined by isotone projection cones, extending the results of Németh [S.Z. Németh, Iterative methods for nonlinear complementarity problems on isotone projection cones, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 350 (2009), pp. 340–370]. Some existing concepts from the latter paper are extended to solve the problem of finding nonzero solutions of the implicit complementarity problem. |
