Projection onto simplicial cones by Picard's method

Optimization and Control 2015-03-11 v1

Abstract

By using Moreau's decomposition theorem for projecting onto cones, the problem of projecting onto a simplicial cone is reduced to finding the unique solution of a nonsmooth system of equations. It is shown that Picard's method applied to the system of equations associated to the problem of projecting onto a simplicial cone generates a sequence that converges linearly to the solution of the system. Numerical experiments are presented making the comparison between Picard's and semi-smooth Newton's methods to solve the nonsmooth system associated with the problem of projecting a point onto a simplicial cone.
