An algorithm for constrained convex optimization

This paper presents a feasible direction algorithm for the minimization of a pseudoconvex function over a smooth, compact, convex set. We establish that each cluster point of the generated sequence is an optimal solution of the problem without introducing anti-jamming procedures. Each iteration of the algorithm involves as subproblems only one line search for a zero of a continuously differentiable convex function and one univariate function minimization on a compact interval.
