Wenyu Sun In this paper a new trust region method with simple model for solving large-scale unconstrained nonlinear optimization problems is proposed. By using the generalized weak quasi-Newton equations, we derive several schemes to determine the appropriate scalar matrix as the Hessian approximation. Under some reasonable conditions and the framework of the trust-region method, the global convergence … Read more
In this paper, we propose a new dwindling multidimensional filter second-order line search method for solving large-scale unconstrained optimization problems. Usually, the multidimensional filter is constructed with a fixed envelope, which is a strict condition for the gradient vectors. A dwindling multidimensional filter technique, which is a modification and improvement of the original multidimensional filter, … Read more
In this paper, with the help of convex-like function, we discuss the duality theory for nonconvex semidefinite programming. Our contributions are: duality theory for the general nonconvex semidefinite programming when Slater’s condition holds; perfect duality for a special case of the nonconvex semidefinite programming for which Slater’s condition fails. We point out that the results … Read more
