Abstract: | In this paper we relax the assumptions of a well known algorithm for continuous global optimization, Multilevel Single Linkage
(MLSL). It is shown that the good theoretical properties of MLSL are shared by a slightly different algorithm, Non-monotonic
MLSL (NM MLSL), but under weaker assumptions. The main difference with MLSL is the fact that in NM MLSL some non-monotonic
sequences of sampled points are also considered in order to decide whether to start or not a local search, while MLSL only
considers monotonic decreasing sequences. The modification is inspired by non-monotonic methods for local searches.
