Abstract

In this paper we provide implementable methods for solving nondifferentiable convex optimization problems. A typical method minimizes an approximate Moreau--Yosida regularization using a quasi-Newton technique with inexact function and gradient values which are generated by a finite inner bundle algorithm. For a BFGS bundle-type method global and superlinear convergence results for the outer iteration sequence are obtained.
