Abstract

In this paper we consider system of inequalities. By constructing a new smoothing function, the problem is approximated via a family of parameterized smooth equations. A Newton-type algorithm is applied to solve iteratively the smooth equations so that a solution of the problem concerned is found. We show that the algorithm is globally and locally quadratically convergent under suitable assumptions. Preliminary numerical results are reported.
