A BFGS trust-region method for nonlinear equations

Computing Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

In this paper, a new trust-region subproblem combining with the BFGS update is proposed for solving nonlinear equations, where the trust region radius is defined by a new way. The global convergence without the nondegeneracy assumption and the quadratic convergence are obtained under suitable conditions. Numerical results show that this method is more effective than the norm method.
