Abstract

Based on the techniques used in non-smooth Newton methods and regularized smoothing Newton methods, a Newton-type algorithm is proposed for solving the P 0 affine variational inequality problem. Under mild conditions, the algorithm can find an exact solution of the P 0 affine variational inequality problem in finite steps. Preliminary numerical results indicate that the algorithm is promising.
