This method is then applied to a class of variational inequalities of the second kind. As a result, one obtains an implementable algorithm exhibiting a local superlinear convergence. Thereafter we suggest several globally convergent hybrid algorithms in which one combines the semismooth* Newton method with selected splitting algorithms for the solution of monotone variational inequalities. Their efficiency is documented by extensive numerical experiments.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-07-22T13:30:43.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "65K10", "65K15", "90C33" ], "keywords": [ "newton method", "second kind", "application", "monotone variational inequalities", "globally convergent hybrid algorithms" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
