Abstract

The local nonglobal minimizer of trust-region subproblem, if it exists, is shown to have the second smallest objective function value among all KKT points. This new property is extended to pp-regularized subproblem. As a corollary, we show for the first time that finding the local nonglobal minimizer of Nesterov-Polyak subproblem corresponds to a generalized eigenvalue problem.
