An algorithmic characterization of P-matricity

It is shown that a matrix $M$ is a P-matrix if and only if, whatever is the vector $q$, the Newton-min algorithm does not cycle between two points when it is used to solve the linear complementarity problem $0\leq x\perp (Mx+q)\geq0$. CitationInria research report RR-8004ArticleDownload View PDF

An efficient matrix splitting method for the second-order cone complementarity problem

Given a symmetric and positive (semi)definite $n$-by-$n$ matrix $M$ and a vector, in this paper, we consider the matrix splitting method for solving the second-order cone linear complementarity problem (SOCLCP). The matrix splitting method is among the most widely used approaches for large scale and sparse classical linear complementarity problems (LCP), and its linear convergence … Read more

Weighted complementarity problems – a new paradigm for computing equilibria

This paper introduces the notion of a weighted Complementarity Problem (wCP), which consists in finding a pair of vectors $(x,s)$ belonging to the intersection of a manifold with a cone, such that their product in a certain algebra, $x\circ s$, equals a given weight vector $w$. When $w$ is the zero vector, then wCP reduces … Read more

On the bilinearity rank of a proper cone and Lyapunov-like transformations

A real square matrix Q is a bilinear complementarity relation on a proper cone K in R^n if x in K, s in K^* with x perpendicular to s implies x^{T}Qs=0, where K^* is the dual of K. The bilinearity rank of K is the dimension of the space of all bilinear complementarity relations on … Read more

A barrier-based smoothing proximal point algorithm for NCPs over closed convex cones

We present a new barrier-based method of constructing smoothing approximations for the Euclidean projector onto closed convex cones. These smoothing approximations are used in a smoothing proximal point algorithm to solve monotone nonlinear complementarity problems (NCPs) over a convex cones via the normal map equation. The smoothing approximations allow for the solution of the smoothed … Read more

On the Convergence Properties of Non-Euclidean Extragradient Methods for Variational Inequalities with Generalized Monotone Operators

In this paper, we study a class of generalized monotone variational inequality (GMVI) problems whose operators are not necessarily monotone (e.g., pseudo-monotone). We present non-Euclidean extragradient (N-EG) methods for computing an approximate strong solution of these problems, and demonstrate how their iteration complexities depend on the global Lipschitz or H\”{o}lder continuity properties for their operators … Read more

The Split Common Null Point Problem

We introduce and study the Split Common Null Point Problem (SCNPP) for set-valued maximal monotone mappings in Hilbert spaces. This problem generalizes our Split Variational Inequality Problem (SVIP) [Y. Censor, A. Gibali and S. Reich, Algorithms for the split variational inequality problem, Numerical Algorithms 59 (2012), 301–323]. The SCNPP with only two set-valued mappings entails … Read more

A class of Fejer convergent algorithms, approximate resolvents and the Hybrid Proximal-Extragradient method

A new framework for analyzing Fejer convergent algorithms is presented. Using this framework we define a very general class of Fejer convergent algorithms and establish its convergence properties. We also introduce a new definition of approximations of resolvents which preserve some useful features of the exact resolvent, and use this concept to present an unifying … Read more

ON REGULARITY CONDITIONS FOR COMPLEMENTARITY PROBLEMS

In the context of mixed complementarity problems, various concepts of solution regularity are known, each of them playing a certain role in related theoretical and algorithmic developments. In this note, we provide the complete picture of relations between the most important regularity conditions for mixed complementarity problems. A special attention is paid to the particular … Read more

A von Neumann Alternating Method for Finding Common Solutions to Variational Inequalities

Modifying von Neumann’s alternating projections algorithm, we obtain an alternating method for solving the recently introduced Common Solutions to Variational Inequalities Problem (CSVIP). For simplicity, we mainly confine our attention to the two-set CSVIP, which entails finding common solutions to two unrelated variational inequalities in Hilbert space.
