Elizabeth Wegner Karas This paper presents a convergence rate for the sequence generated by the Cauchy algorithm. The method is applied to a convex quadratic function with exact line search. Instead of using the norm induced by the hessian matrix, the q-linear convergence is shown for the l2 (or Euclidean) norm. Citation Tecnhical Report, Dep. Mathematics, Federal University … Read more
In this paper we present a filter algorithm for nonlinear programming and prove its global convergence to stationary points. Each iteration is composed of a restoration phase, which reduces a measure of infeasibility, and an optimality phase, which reduces the objective function in a tangential approximation of the feasible set. These two phases are totally … Read more
This paper presents some examples of ill-behaved central paths in convex optimization. Some contain infinitely many fixed length central segments; others manifest oscillations with infinite variation. These central paths can be encountered even for infinitely differentiable data.
