چکیده

Affine variational inequalities (AVI) are an important problem class that generalize systems of linear equations, linear complementarity problems and optimality conditions for quadratic programs. This paper describes PATHAVI, a structure-preserving pivotal approach, that can process (solve or determine infeasible) large-scale sparse instances of the problem efficiently, with theoretical guarantees and at high accuracy. PATHAVI implements a strategy that is known to process models with good theoretical properties without reducing the problem to specialized forms, since such reductions may destroy structure in the models and can lead to very long computational times. We demonstrate formally that PATHAVI implicitly follows the theoretically sound iteration paths, and can be implemented in a large scale setting using existing sparse linear algebra and linear programming techniques without employing a reduction. We also extend the class of problems that PATHAVI can process. The paper demonstrates the effectiveness of our approach by comparison to the PATH solver used on a complementarity reformulation of the AVI in the context of applications in friction contact and Nash Equilibria problems. PATHAVI is a general purpose solver, and freely available under the same conditions as PATH. ∗Wisconsin Institute for Discovery and Department of Computer Sciences, University of Wisconsin-Madison, 1210 West Dayton St., Madison, WI, 53706 Y.

An inexact alternating direction method with SQP regularization for the structured variational inequalities

In this paper, we propose an inexact alternating direction method with square quadratic proximal  (SQP) regularization for  the structured variational inequalities. The predictor is obtained via solving SQP system  approximately  under significantly  relaxed accuracy criterion  and the new iterate is computed directly by an explicit formula derived from the original SQP method. Under appropriat...

Strong convergence for variational inequalities and equilibrium problems and representations

We introduce an implicit method for nding a common element of the set of solutions of systems of equilibrium problems and the set of common xed points of a sequence of nonexpansive mappings and a representation of nonexpansive mappings. Then we prove the strong convergence of the proposed implicit schemes to the unique solution of a variational inequality, which is the optimality condition for ...

Hadamard Well-posedness for a Family of Mixed Variational Inequalities and Inclusion Problems‎

In this paper, the concepts of well-posednesses and Hadamard well-posedness for a family of mixed variational inequalities are studied. Also, some metric characterizations of them are presented and some relations between well-posedness and Hadamard well-posedness of a family of mixed variational inequalities is studied. Finally, a relation between well-posedness for the family of mixed variatio...
