For nonlinear equations, the homotopy methods (continuation methods) are popular in engineering fields since their convergence regions are large and they are quite reliable to find a solution. The disadvantage of the classical homotopy…
This paper considers an explicit continuation method and the trust-region updating strategy for the unconstrained optimization problem. Moreover, in order to improve its computational efficiency and robustness, the new method uses the…
This paper considers the regularization continuation method and the trust-region updating strategy for the nonlinearly equality-constrained optimization problem. Namely, it uses the inverse of the regularization quasi-Newton matrix as the…
The focus in this work is on interior-point methods for inequality-constrained quadratic programs, and particularly on the system of nonlinear equations to be solved for each value of the barrier parameter. Newton iterations give high…
This paper considers the regularization continuation method and the trust-region updating strategy for the optimization problem with linear equality constraints.The proposed method utilizes the linear conservation law of the regularization…
We propose a novel trust region method for solving a class of nonsmooth, nonconvex composite-type optimization problems. The approach embeds inexact semismooth Newton steps for finding zeros of a normal map-based stationarity measure for…
Newton method is one of the most powerful methods for finding solutions of nonlinear equations and for proving their existence. In its "pure" form it has fast convergence near the solution, but small convergence domain. On the other hand…
We describe inexact proximal Newton-like methods for solving degenerate regularized optimization problems and for the broader problem of finding a zero of a generalized equation that is the sum of a continuous map and a maximal monotone…
Historically speaking, it is hard to balance the global and local efficiency of second-order optimization algorithms. For instance, the classical Newton's method possesses excellent local convergence but lacks global guarantees, often…
A technique for accelerating global convergence of pseudo-transient continuation Newton methods is proposed based on residual smoothing. The technique is motivated by the effectiveness of local nonlinear smoothers at overcoming strong…
We propose a trust-region type method for a class of nonsmooth nonconvex optimization problems where the objective function is a summation of a (probably nonconvex) smooth function and a (probably nonsmooth) convex function. The model…
We study a variant of Newton's algorithm applied to under-determined systems of non-smooth equations. The notion of regularity employed in our work is based on Newton differentiability, which generalizes semi-smoothness. The classic notion…
We propose a novel linesearch variant of the trust region normal map-based semismooth Newton method developed in [Ouyang and Milzarek, Math. Program. 212(1-2), 389--435 (2025)] for solving a class of nonsmooth, nonconvex composite-type…
For quasi-Newton methods in unconstrained minimization, it is valuable to develop methods that are robust, i.e., methods that converge on a large number of problems. Trust-region algorithms are often regarded to be more robust than…
Newton-type methods enjoy fast local convergence and strong empirical performance, but achieving global guarantees comparable to first-order methods remains challenging. Even for simple strongly convex problems, no straightforward variant…
Worst-case complexity guarantees for nonconvex optimization algorithms have been a topic of growing interest. Multiple frameworks that achieve the best known complexity bounds among a broad class of first- and second-order strategies have…
We show that Newton methods for generalized equations are input-to-state stable with respect to disturbances such as due to inexact computations. We then use this result to obtain convergence and robustness of a multistep Newton-type method…
Newton's method is a fundamental technique in optimization with quadratic convergence within a neighborhood around the optimum. However reaching this neighborhood is often slow and dominates the computational costs. We exploit two…
The trust-region (TR) method is renowned historically for its robustness in nonconvex problems and extraordinary numerical performance, but the study of its performance in convex optimization is somehow limited. This paper complements the…
The textbook Newton's iteration is practically inapplicable on solutions of nonlinear systems with singular Jacobians. By a simple modification, a novel extension of Newton's iteration regains its local quadratic convergence toward…
