STRONGLY CONVERGENT INERTIAL FORWARD-BACKWARD-FORWARD ALGORITHM WITHOUT ON-LINE RULE FOR VARIATIONAL INEQUALITIES

This paper studies a strongly convergent inertial forward-backward-forward algorithm for the variational inequality problem in Hilbert spaces.In our convergence analysis,we do not assume the on-line rule of the inertial parameters and the iterates,which have been assumed by several authors whenever a strongly convergent algorithm with an inertial extrapolation step is proposed for a variational inequality problem.Consequently,our proof arguments are different from what is obtainable in the relevant literature.Finally,we give numerical tests to confirm the theoretical analysis and show that our proposed algorithm is superior to related ones in the literature.

Weak and Strong Convergence of Self Adaptive Inertial Subgradient Extragradient Algorithms for Solving Variational Inequality Problems

Many solutions of variational inequalities have been proposed,among which the subgradient extragradient method has obvious advantages.Two different algorithms are given for solving variational inequality problem in this paper.The problem we study is defined in a real Hilbert space and has L-Lipschitz and pseudomonotone condition.Two new algorithms adopt inertial technology and non-monotonic step size rule,and their convergence can still be proved when the value of L is not given in advance.Finally,some numerical results are designed to demonstrate the computational efficiency of our two new algorithms.

A RELAXED INERTIAL FACTOR OF THE MODIFIED SUBGRADIENT EXTRAGRADIENT METHOD FOR SOLVING PSEUDO MONOTONE VARIATIONAL INEQUALITIES IN HILBERT SPACES

In this paper,we investigate pseudomonotone and Lipschitz continuous variational inequalities in real Hilbert spaces.For solving this problem,we propose a new method that combines the advantages of the subgradient extragradient method and the projection contraction method.Some very recent papers have considered different inertial algorithms which allowed the inertial factor is chosen in[0;1].The purpose of this work is to continue working in this direction,we propose another inertial subgradient extragradient method that the inertial factor can be chosen in a special case to be 1.Under suitable mild conditions,we establish the weak convergence of the proposed algorithm.Moreover,linear convergence is obtained under strong pseudomonotonicity and Lipschitz continuity assumptions.Finally,some numerical illustrations are given to confirm the theoretical analysis.

Inertial Subgradient Extragradient Algorithm for Solving Variational Inequality Problems with Pseudomonotonicity

In order to solve variational inequality problems of pseudomonotonicity and Lipschitz continuity in Hilbert spaces, an inertial subgradient extragradient algorithm is proposed by virtue of non-monotone stepsizes. Moreover, weak convergence and R-linear convergence analyses of the algorithm are constructed under appropriate assumptions. Finally, the efficiency of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated through numerical implementations.

Regularization Methods to Approximate Solutions of Variational Inequalities

In this paper, we study the regularization methods to approximate the solutions of the variational inequalities with monotone hemi-continuous operator having perturbed operators arbitrary. Detail, we shall study regularization methods to approximate solutions of following variational inequalities: and with operator A being monotone hemi-continuous form real Banach reflexive X into its dual space X*, but instead of knowing the exact data (y0, A), we only know its approximate data satisfying certain specified conditions and D is a nonempty convex closed subset of X;the real function f defined on X is assumed to be lower semi-continuous, convex and is not identical to infinity. At the same time, we will evaluate the convergence rate of the approximate solution. The regularization methods here are different from the previous ones.

Existence and numerical approximation of a solution to frictional contact problem for electro-elastic materials

In this paper,a frictional contact problem between an electro-elastic body and an electrically conductive foundation is studied.The contact is modeled by normal compliance with finite penetration and a version of Coulomb’s law of dry friction in which the coefficient of friction depends on the slip.In addition,the effects of the electrical conductivity of the foundation are taken into account.This model leads to a coupled system of the quasi-variational inequality of the elliptic type for the displacement and the nonlinear variational equation for the electric potential.The existence of a weak solution is proved by using an abstract result for elliptic variational inequalities and a fixed point argument.Then,a finite element approximation of the problem is presented.Under some regularity conditions,an optimal order error estimate of the approximate solution is derived.Finally,a successive iteration technique is used to solve the problem numerically and a convergence result is established.

Comparison of two kinds of approximate proximal point algorithms for monotone variational inequalities

This paper proposes two kinds of approximate proximal point algorithms （APPA） for monotone variational inequalities, both of which can be viewed as two extended versions of Solodov and Svaiter＇s APPA in the paper ＂Error bounds for proximal point subproblems and associated inexact proximal point algorithms＂ published in 2000. They are both prediction- correction methods which use the same inexactness restriction; the only difference is that they use different search directions in the correction steps. This paper also chooses an optimal step size in the two versions of the APPA to improve the profit at each iteration. Analysis also shows that the two APPAs are globally convergent under appropriate assumptions, and we can expect algorithm 2 to get more progress in every iteration than algorithm 1. Numerical experiments indicate that algorithm 2 is more efficient than algorithm 1 with the same correction step size,

DIFFERENTIAL VARIATIONAL INEQUALITIES IN INFINITE BANACH SPACES

MIXED VARIATIONAL INEQUALITIES DRIVEN BY FRACTIONAL EVOLUTIONARY EQUATIONS

The goal of the present paper is to investigate an abstract system, called fractional differential variational inequality, which consists of a mixed variational inequality combined with a fractional evolution equation in the framework of Banach spaces. Using discrete approximation approach, an existence theorem of solutions for the inequality is established under some suitable assumptions.

We construct an iterative method to approximate a common element of the solution set of classical variational inequalities and of the fixed point set of a strict pseudocontraction. Strong convergence theorems for the common element are established in the framework of Hilbert spaces.

SINGLE PROJECTION ALGORITHM FOR VARIATIONAL INEQUALITIES IN BANACH SPACES WITH APPLICATION TO CONTACT PROBLEM

We study the single projection algorithm of Tseng for solving a variational inequality problem in a 2-uniformly convex Banach space.The underline cost function of the variational inequality is assumed to be monotone and Lipschitz continuous.A weak convergence result is obtained under reasonable assumptions on the variable step-sizes.We also give the strong convergence result for when the underline cost function is strongly monotone and Lipchitz continuous.For this strong convergence case,the proposed method does not require prior knowledge of the modulus of strong monotonicity and the Lipschitz constant of the cost function as input parameters,rather,the variable step-sizes are diminishing and non-summable.The asymptotic estimate of the convergence rate for the strong convergence case is also given.For completeness,we give another strong convergence result using the idea of Halpern iteration when the cost function is monotone and Lipschitz continuous and the variable step-sizes are bounded by the inverse of the Lipschitz constant of the cost function.Finally,we give an example of a contact problem where our proposed method can be applied.

QUASI-CONFORMING FINITE ELEMENT APPROXIMATION FOR A FOURTH ORDER VARIATIONAL INEQUALITY WITH DISPLACEMENT OBSTACLE

An improved proximal-based decomposition method for structured monotone variational inequalities

The proximal-based decomposition method was originally proposed by Chen and Teboulle （Math. Programming, 1994, 64：81-101 for solving corrvex minimization problems. This paper extends it to solving monotone variational inequalities associated with separable structures with the improvements that the restrictive assumptions on the involved parameters are much relaxed, and thus makes it practical to solve the subproblems easily. Without additional assumptions, global convergence of the new method is proved under the same mild assumptions on the problem＇s data as the original method.

WEAK CONVERGENCE THEOREMS FOR GENERAL EQUILIBRIUM PROBLEMS AND VARIATIONAL INEQUALITY PROBLEMS AND FIXED POINT PROBLEMS IN BANACH SPACES

In this paper, we introduce two new iterative algorithms for finding a common element of the set of solutions of a general equilibrium problem and the set of solutions of the variational inequality for an inverse-strongly monotone operator and the set of common fixed points of two infinite families of relatively nonexpansive mappings or the set of common fixed points of an infinite family of relatively quasi-nonexpansive mappings in Banach spaces. Then we study the weak convergence of the two iterative sequences. Our results improve and extend the results announced by many others.

APPROXIMATION OF FIXED POINTS AND VARIATIONAL SOLUTIONS FOR PSEUDO-CONTRACTIVE MAPPINGS IN BANACH SPACES

Let K be a nonempty, closed and convex subset of a real reflexive Banach space E which has a uniformly Gateaux differentiable norm. Assume that every nonempty closed con- vex and bounded subset of K has the fixed point property for nonexpansive mappings. Strong convergence theorems for approximation of a fixed point of Lipschitz pseudo-contractive map- pings which is also a unique solution to variational inequality problem involving φ-strongly pseudo-contractive mappings are proved. The results presented in this article can be applied to the study of fixed points of nonexpansive mappings, variational inequality problems, con- vex optimization problems, and split feasibility problems. Our result extends many recent important results.

NEW SIMPLE SMOOTH MERIT FUNCTION FOR BOX CONSTRAINED VARIATIONAL INEQUALITIES AND DAMPED NEWTON TYPE METHOD

By introducing a smooth merit function for the median function, a new smooth merit function for box constrained variational inequalities （BVIs） was constructed. The function is simple and has some good differential properties. A damped Newton type method was presented based on it. Global and local superlinear/ quadratic convergence results were obtained under mild conditions, and the finite termination property was also shown for the linear BVIs. Numerical results suggest that the method is efficient and promising.
